    Not just that, Europe should combat the far-right much more aggressively first. Withholding any finances of it is one good measure, esp. through algorithm manipulation and the like.

    The other, which should be done in tandem, is actually tackling the housing market and the left appearing to combat an (even if it doesn’t exist) immigration problem, while actually putting up genuine left policies, like basic healthcare, railways, etc being nationalised, and climate change tackled alongside with big companies being broken up.

    And if that means that I as a well-off person gotta pay more taxes - by all means! The billionnaires and millionnaires especially, then the average Noah needs to be spared.

      left appearing to combat an (even if it doesn’t exist) immigration problem

      what do you mean with this?

      and it surely exists in the mind of conversatives/fascists/right wingers.

        He’s politely saying most people are idiot racists and will vote for any party that is anti immigration.

        The reason the left is doing so bad is because none of the left parties want to do anything about immigration. So people vote for shitty extreme right wing parties that say they do something about it (but never do, they just lie. All they want is power and control the population).

        The left should just “say they will tackle immigration” even if they don’t. The far right has been lying their asses of and no one seems to care so yeah…

        What I mean is that the left then would appear to be combatting it, so that people - those who vote on right-wing parties and who want good social care, but are against immigration -, then would step over to the left wing party.

        We also need to pull the narrative back to normal: drastically ramp up the left-wing content online in right-wing spaces!

            What I suggest is moving the Overton window back to normal. If those radical-rightwingers don’t want to talk with normal people, but at the same time push their views on us, then we can do the same to them as well, just harder.

    Looking at my username it should be clear that I am not a fan of US imperialism. But, I do think Europe really has to consider how it deals with the security dilemma before it leaves the US security umbrella. At the moment we are still a bunch of nation states with individual armies, individual politics, and following that: individual interests. And especially with nationalism on the rise in almost all of Europe I would rather have a solid answer to the question if European peace was due to „learning from the past“ and the EU, then find out the hard way that it was because of the US safeguarding each country’s sovereignty (and thus breaking the security dilemmas cycle of mistrust).
