Ukrainians are fighting for their existence. On territory that Russia occupies, it tortures Ukrainian citizens, kidnaps Ukrainian children and murders Ukrainian leaders. On territory Russia can reach with its weapons, it strikes civilians and rescue workers.

In 2023, using , he replaced "2014 Paul" w/vocal tracks 'I'll call "1966 Paul" &"1966 John."

Hi. As near as I can make out from genealogical dives a few years back, my third-great-grandfather was a in Missouri.

Which, as I see it, makes it something of a moral imperative for me to share this video on how the US narrative on has been corrupted.

#Germany's Far Right Party #AfD and Its Rhetoric of #Radicalisation | by Aris Teon | Feb, 2024 | Medium

Yet another indispensable piece from @aristeon89.

https://medium.com/@aeonjournal/germanys-far-right-party-afd-and-its-rhetoric-of-radicalisation-d2b779d133be

#German #Politics #radicalization #farright #polisci #political #PoliticalScience #neonazi #nationalism

@politicalscience @geopolitics @sociology

Ever since its emergence on the political scene over a decade ago, the AfD has conducted a campaign of radicalisation. Exploiting economic and social crises as well as racism, islamophobia and cultural conservatism, the AfD has crafted a new nationalistic narrative the likes of which the country had not seen since 1945.
