Germany's AfD's far-right leader Alice Weidel held secret meetings with Chinese envoy, it has also emerged that she was on China’s payroll for several years

The problem with fascist parties is they tend to be as skeptical of outside news as they are gullible towards insider news. "She's a Chinese Fifth Columnist who will turn Berlin over to Beijing!" is the sort of thing fascists eager to believe about outsiders but very reluctant to accept of one of their own.

So AfD is supported by China, russia and the US? Which major countries do we have left outside the EU to help fight fascist bullshit?
-
so far right came all the way around to communist
-
But if she’s working with Chinese bureaucrats on an economic plan ...
You have again (maybe intentionally?) misunderstood the issue. China is working to undermine democracy in Germany (as well as it does elsewhere, btw). What the AfD and China have in mind has nothing to do with an 'economic plan.' The China-related scandals of AfD politicians and arrests of their AfD staff last year are only a faint spark of the 'plan' they pursue.
This is not for, but against Germany and its democratic institutions what they are doing.
-
The problem with fascist parties like the AfD, CCP, and all the others is that they don't care about democracy and human rights.
-
Where's the communists in this equation
-
And we're too tired to even say told so

Pikachu got a stache

I'm not blaming you or op, just jokingly wondering am I the only one who feels getting notified is rude
-
Intentionally.
-
Spies need to be kicked out of the country and organizations set up by them have to be banned.
-
Is this what she meant when she called Hitler a "communist"? Not like "ew, communists" but "oh yeah, communists, like the good folks in the CCP who gave me money"?
-
..China?
-
Just fucking wild to see what does and doesn't qualify as fascism in the Western brain.
You toss out the AfD and the CCP but forget to mention the Likkud, United Russia, the La Libertad Avanza, or the GOP.
It's even crazier to see liberals scream and cry about the Genocide in Ürümqi for over a decade, then insist any kind of student protest over the flattening of Gaza City or the brutal rape and murder of hospital chief Abu Safia is the result of Iranian produced pro-Trump propaganda.
But, to quote Dr Lubinda Haabazoka, Director of the University of Zambia Graduate School of Business and former President of the Economics Association of Zambia
Every time China visits we get a hospital, every time Britain visits we get a lecture.
How long until the Chancellor of Germany is repeating this verbatim?
-
They produce scandals each day to get attention. Same as Musk, Trump, etc.... At some point, the fans just don't care anymore.
-
What about China?
-
That, or distract, overwhelm.
When we have 10 appalling things every single day, we lack the energy to connect the dots between the lesser ones. Or care. It's both a flood and exposure therapy. -
Calling yourself communist while doing capitalism doesn't actually mean anything.
-
There's never actually been large scale communism. The step where the autocratic takeover ends just doesn't happen. So yeah, practiced communism is not just coming around to and touching fascism, they're almost congruent.

Not the US, but fascist billionaires.
