How do you know when your country is being screwed by another?

Your leader takes a photo like this at the announcement of a "policing" partnership.

The west brings war and drugs, China brings order and stability Chinacry


The general of the 58th army watched his troops die for nothing because of a lack of supply and other things, went to Gerasimov(?) to complain and was then relieved of command by Shoigu.  lol

It's the same across Europe. Some right-wing and left-wing parties are getting clobbered for supporting Russia.
The winning formula is what Meloni is doing in Italy. Making parallels with Italy's own national struggle against undemocratic forces, something that nationalists and conservatives feel strongly about.


Even though many people agree that NATO and the US are partially to blame for the escalation in Ukraine and they want the war to end, they won't side with the gangsters in the Kremlin.
Supporting American wars in the Middle East wasn't a popular position and part of the reason why the right-wing parties gained in popularity in the first place so I don't understand why they thought supporting Russian wars would lead to different results.

Economics also play a role of course. Most of the populist right-wing and left-wing parties don't really have detailed policies or proposals on how to deal with pressing economic issues.
And very few of them have a background in anything related to governing and making money.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/08/13/afd-party-ban-germany-far-right-extremists/ wrote:Germany is debating whether to ban the far-Right Alternative for Germany (AfD) as the party surges to 21 per cent in the polls, amid warnings from intelligence officials that its members are becoming increasingly extreme.

Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the German president, warned in a speech to the country’s domestic intelligence agency that “we all have it in our hands to put those who despise our democracy in their place”.

His speech at the castle where the German post-war constitution was created has widely been seen as support for a ban after Thomas Haldenwang, the domestic spy chief, warned about growing Right-wing extremist influence in the party.

Mr Haldenwang said: “We see a considerable number of protagonists in this party that spread hate against all types of minorities here in Germany.”

It comes amid warnings of the increasing influence of Björn Höcke, the leader of the AfD in the eastern state of Thuringia.

Mr Höcke, a former history teacher, is known for his Hitler-esque language – with his allies sweeping the board for European lists at the party’s conference in Magdeburg in August.

In a rare move, the respected Der Spiegel news magazine weighed into the debate with a leader titled: “Ban the enemies of the constitution!”

It warned that “the AfD has become more and more radicalised. It’s time to defend democracy with better weapons”.
Quote:Meanwhile, the German Institute for Human Rights, a non-governmental organisation, declared last week that “the AfD have reached a degree of dangerousness that they can be banned according to the constitution”.
Quote:Germans are evenly split on whether the party should be banned, with 47 per cent of the country in favour of a ban and 47 per cent against.

A ban is more popular in the west and among liberal Greens.
What could go wrong with Germany banning a political party rising in the polls. It worked out so well the last two times they did it.

We have the same debate in the Netherlands about a bunch of right wing parties the left considers too radical but AFD takes the cake with their ads about the war in Ukraine.

Europe continues to wreck itself with insane migration, economic, security and energy policies. The cherry on top is part of Africa trying to cut their ties and siding with Russia.
We funnel god knows how many billions to Africa and various NGOs in the region and no one had seen it coming. 

Just like they didn't realize that counter attacking against heavily entrenched Russian lines patrolled by drones and covered by artillery without an airforce wouldn't work.

Another thing people didn't see coming,
