Buone notizie dalla Germania. Se la Sinistra fa la Sinistra, accresce i consensi. La scoperta dell' acqua calda? Probabilmente sรฌ, ma se consideriamo che della crisi valoriale della SPD scriveva giร Foucault in Nascita della biopolitica, forse non del tutto.
24.02.2025 10:23 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Just your ordinary Italian right-wing media, using crude and ignorant stereotypes around Germany to stigmatise the fact that the post-Nazis of ADf won't be part of the new government.
The AfD, however has influenced almost every party's policies in the German political arena.
I see a lot of desperation about German election. #BTW25
Let me provide a perspective from Trumpland:
AfD will win at most 25%, which means that 75% do NOT vote for far right! That is still a strong democratic mandate. Use it to strengthen democracy! Don't empower the far right unnecessarily!
And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.
