Unter den auffälligeren Presseaussendungen des Tages: dieses emphatische freiheitliche Plädoyer für den "Gebrauchthundesport". Da man sich nicht entscheiden konnte, ob es nicht doch "Gebrauchshundesport" heißt, hat man zur Sicherheit ersteres 3x und letzteres 2x eingebaut. www.ots.at/presseaussen...
🇦🇹 “Identitarian” leader Martin Sellner is advertising his new book, which promises to present the best arguments of his opponents—yet is all blank pages. Which not only illustrates what passes for a clever joke on the far right, but also takes grifting to another level, even for this master grifter.
Das ist doch bitte wirklich ein Strohmannargument. Die Gruppen, die ich meine (zu denen Attac übrigens nicht zählt), propagieren wesentlich mehr und anderes als Menschenrechte - eine Welt ohne Israel z.B. Aber, ja, ich stimme zu: es soll eh jede*r marschieren, mit wem sies für richtig hält.
Das ist angesichts des Mobbings gegen Feminism Unlimited aus dem TBTS-Umfeld ein origineller Vorwurf. Aber es macht als Orientierungshilfe ja wohl Sinn, auf die Unterschiede in der Einladungspolitik hinzuweisen, die ja auch der Grund sind, warum es in 1 Stadt an 1 Tag 3 Demos zum selben Anlass gibt.
In Wien finden diesen 8. März drei feministische Demonstrationen statt. Eine schließt antisemitische Gruppen ein, eine andere Transpersonen aus. Die dritte ist diese hier.
Rechtsextremismusforscher Bernhard Weidinger (DÖW) hat in den Morgengesprächen der deutschsprachigen Rai mit Ute Niederfriniger über „Remigration“ gesprochen. Nachzuhören unter: raibz.rai.it/streaming/Ne...
“Tommy Robinson” is not just a violent racist, he is a serial criminal with a string of convictions for a broad range of crimes. In other words, exactly the type of “criminal alien” the Trump administration pretends to want to prevent from entering the U.S.
Yes, that is a possibility, albeit a highly unlikely one, statistically speaking.
That certainly depends... as a white male academic, I don’t feel like it would take particular bravery for me to go. Realistically, worst thing that might happen is they send me back right away. And if Americans can endure living there, I guess one can handle the scary for a couple of days.
Kickl, at the FPÖ's Ash Wednesday rally in Ried, channels his inner Steven Miller as he explains his "Phoenix plan for Austria" and what he means by "system change" and "Third Republic". (quote rendered in standardized German; dialectal features normalized).
Kickl's core message today: the "good old times" were, indeed, good, and the FPÖ is bringing them back. "Let's make Austria an island of the blessed again." [The island metaphor is a quote from Pope Paul VI's 1971 visit to Austria]
Herbert Kickl using "Lili Marleen", a smash hit from 1939 Germany, as a pop-cultural reference in his Ash Wednesday speech speaks volumes — not necessarily about the political leanings of the audience he's adressing, but certainly about their median age.
Kickl also references the @doew.at's right-wing extremism report and the number of mentions he received in it. Draws another round of applause from the crowd.
Looks like all the FPÖ's pro-Kremlin messaging over the last 10 years or so has gotten through to the party base after all: Haimbuchner's statement that "the sanctions on Russia are wrong" is met with spontaneous acclaim from the audience. #AshWednesday
Austrian Freedom Party is holding their annual Ash Wednesday rally in Ried. Among those called out so far by M. Haimbuchner are the @doew.at (for mentioning him in their latest report on right-wing extremism in Austria) and all those "marxists" in journalism "who still don't know how to tie a tie".
Quality content. No takers?
That prostate cancer screening "relax your tight end" commercial has to be considered an instant classic. One of the highlights of the 2026 Super Bowl ad season for sure.
Right-wing extremist ≠ neo-Nazi. Look, I report on the 🇦🇹 far right, which the AfD has modeled itself after, for a living and get accused on a daily basis of "making up dangers that don't exist". That doesn't mean I can't be wrong, but I don't need to be made aware of what these guys are all about.
Ach ja, RTV. Info-DIREKT-Scharfmüller ist dort auch regelmäßig zu Gast. RTV übernahm eine zeitlang Inhalte von AUF1, allerdings in nicht rechtskonformer Weise (nämlich ohne redaktionellen Einfluss darauf), wurde daher unterbunden.

Wir freuen uns über die Aufmerksamkeit für unseren Rechtsextremismusbericht. Unter den Reaktionen finden sich allerdings einige Mythen. Ob es sich dabei um Missverständnisse, Fehlinterpretationen oder Unterstellungen handelt, sei dahingestellt – hier unsere Antworten: www.doew.at/neues/fake-n...
No it has not. "Gesichert rechtsextremistisch" does not equal neo-Nazi.
Clearly, the AfD is a nationalist and racist party. But there were many such parties in human history and only one Auschwitz. So the question is, why do people assume that this particular party will go down the Auschwitz route, rather than the much more common (and bad enough) discrimination route?
I think overusing the term erodes its meaning. Historically, there has been a ton of ethno-nationalism & racism that did not end up in Auschwitz and one instance where it did. So imho, what needs more substance here is the assumption that in this particular case it will. I'll leave it at that.
The AfD would absolutely "have death camps built" if given the chance? Wow. That statement is so spectacularly speculative I don't even see how one would argue with it, beyond claiming they can read AfD people's minds better than you.
Pointing out that some things about the AfD are similar to things Nazis said or did is certainly legit. But calling the AfD a neo-Nazi party is not drawing comparisons, it's indeed equating. Not necessarily as in "this is the same", but as in "it's of the same quality", and that's where I disagree.
I didn't use the same answer for every reply. I did however use it for three or four that were making the same argument. And while I would love to have enough time on my hands to cook up individual replies to the same point, that is unfortunately not the case right now.
You wrote that the AfD is the 1932 NSDAP. Now you apparently agree that the AfD is not even the 1925 NSDAP and "everbody knows" that, but MY conclusion is a non sequitur?
Oh yes, please enlighten me about the dynamics and dangers of the subject I’ve been researching for the past 20 years, random dude on the internet.
Hitler, in "Mein Kampf", made abundantly clear as early as in the mid-1920s (!) how he felt about Jews, Versailles, liberal democracy, parliamentarism etc., and, in large part, about what he planned to do about it. So even a comparison between the AfD and very early Nazism simply doesn't hold up.
