    Very much so, the Bavarian Conservative Party literally has gone to have talks with republicans to use their election strategies, the German-wide AgD has ramped up their Anti-LGBT campaigning and started to use similar messaging to far-right propaganda networks, e.g. “protect our children”, “pedophiles”, photoshopped images of CSAM at pride events, etc.

      All the conservative parties in the west seem to be pushing the same thing. It seems pretty co-ordinated which is even scarier. Every country is hearing the same talking points.

        Yep, it’s very clear. Far right parties are growing, conservatives are running after them trying to keep their voters by using more and more populist tactics, often crossing the line to keep up with far-right talking points, since they can’t keep their voters with their status-quo, corporations-first policies that they’ve been pushing for decades.

          Yeah the Tories in the UK which were once the mainstream right are now sucking deeply on the crack pipe of Republican culture wars because after thirteen years in power it’s all they have left.

            As are the conservative parties in Canada.

            Until recently the federal conservative party had one of Trump’s co-conspirators listed as someone they had worked with. As so as he was indicted, thwy rapidly and quietly removed any mention of him.

        Steve Bannon was quoted as wanting to create an “international network of nationalists”

          An international group that advocates for not cooperating across international lines?

          That (hopefully) seems doomed from the outset.

            It does. I think what he really means though is an international group of spin doctors who mobilise nationalist sentiments.

            Probably in service to Disaster Capitalism.

          Well its not conspiratorial to say right wing organizations meet and collaborate.

          I think they try and see what works to push their agenda of consolidating power and protection for the rich at any cost.

      Wtf, csam photoshopped in? So gross and evil. How are people not arrested - idk about other places but i thought it is illegal in us to own it at all. So if someone photoshopped it - they should be in jail.
