Social democrats made a come back in dutch politics by unapologetically speaking for what is right and better in liberal ideology.

The time is to be radical and be pro-people and anti-capitalist.

No war on Earth was a holy war and it will never be!!!!!

Just to be crystal… #Sudan is not about Christians vs Muslims.

The #RSF is funded by the #UAE.

It’s about land grabbing and resources. Oil, lithium, copper, gold.

But if you listen to conservatives you’d think it was another holy war, and that’s because that’s what the rich told them to say.

Satellite imagery reveals crimson stains from Sudanese carnage, unmasking RSF butchers' blitzkrieg in Darfur: bodies sprawl in neighborhoods, hospitals, and outskirts within 72 brutal hours, echoing a genocide's grim resurgence. #DarfurGenocide

I think otherwise, in my opinion far-right controls most of the media and online narrative building spaces, they create conspiracy theories and make people believe that. So, centrists are not able to defeat the far-right narrative, try to appropriate their narrative, thinking that would save them.

Aurelien Mondon @aurelmondon.bsky.social · 8d

I would argue they do that because they have no idea regarding the many crises we are facing and they hope the far-right moral panics will act as a diversion and they will still be seen as the lesser of two evils

I don't understand why the centrist parties get trapped in narrative of far-right and to appease the people, the think that appropriating the far-right play book will give them legitimacy, why they think like that?

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?
