they have been sanewashing the far right. I dont if they do as much copaganda/military propaganda shows like with the US, to reinforce the hierarchy of being far right, is RIGHT way.
That ship sailed so long ago it had elves on it when it left
If it weren’t so grim this would be hilarious.
It’s got orcs now.
But they’re owned by the far right.
Not all of them. The german public broadcasting companies are supposed to be „neutral“ and are state funded. And they are normalizing this shit too.
I think it’s especially the traditional media that carries some trust that breaks the camel‘s back: we know that the tabloid press shits out one inflammatory headline after another; but when the „serious“ media picks it up, that’s when these opinions become mainstream.
Yeah, isn’t politico owned by a Trump ally?
Wrooong
How is it not owned by them? The EU version of Politico is published by Axel Springer Verlag. That’s enough to know they are right wing and cannot be taken serious.
Not just the EU version. Politico is fully owned by Axel Springer SE.
From Politico of all things. And what media? The only mainstreem media left is NBC and ABC and both are heavily corporate (Comcast/Disney).

I don’t think US media are the primary focus of this article by politico.eu, talking about European politics “from Reform UK and France’s National Rally to Brothers of Italy and Alternative for Germany”.
That said, yes it’s quite ironic that this is published by politico when their owner Axel Springer SE is one of the main culprits.
An Axel Springer SE publication advocating to not normalise the far right has to be satire…
(Can’t comment on details because my sanity demands that every single part of that giant stinking pile of steaming right-wing shit gets blocked by my Ad, Spam and Trash filter. My personal recommendation: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/autinerd/anti-axelspringer-hosts/master/axelspringer-hosts helps your mental health.)
The Jacobin, New International, are better sources anyways. Thanks for the filter btw!
Is it an idea to put it on Codeberg instead of Github?
They literally are the far right
In addition: People need to punch right-wingers (aka Nazis) in the face.
REFORM
NEEDS
A FUNERAL
It takes one to know one, I guess.
Yes, they must! It’s an imperative! And we’ll continue to write opeds about it until they realize they must!
The Irony.
Fuck Politico, Axel Springer and Döpfner. Don’t share, don’t click.
Presenting everything that’s happening as somehow normal — even while sensationalizing it — is what the mass media do now. I don’t mean it’s a conspiracy, it’s just that’s all they know how to do.
