MAINSTREAM parties in Germany and France are in a panic as the so-called “far right” parties grow in popularity. Germany’s anti-immigration AfD (Alternative for Germany) Party is looking strong for new elections on February 23rd, while in France the growth of Marie Le Pen’s nationalists has President Macron in a panic and calling for “snap elections”.
German Social Democrat and Green politicians are also in a panic, and have been exposed for using public money to fund various groups that oppose the nationalist movements and political parties that have dramatically increased in popularity across Europe in recent years.
Even our own ABC and left wing academics have been forced to admit that “nationalist and populist parties are becoming increasingly dominant in national settings across many EU capitals.”
The ABC and other mainstream media have attempted to counter this movement by showing the large, government-funded rallies in Germany and France against the “far right” and in support of the leftist/globalist EU establishment.
In a recent report, the ABC quoted Ben Wellings, a professor in politics and international relations at Monash University, who says traditionally, far-right parties have been “openly authoritarian, anti-Semitic and racist”. This description is typically perjorative and leftist.
The politics professor says these days, the movements “have been through a process of modernisation that has made them more respectable than they once were’.
“Some of these parties have far-right antecedents, but we now call them radical-right parties,” Wellings told the ABC. “The old far right would have been white supremacists … but the radical right is slightly more complicated.”
The reality is that so-called white supremacism as espoused by the Nazis, the Klu Klux Klan and some Christian movements associated with British-Israelism was always only a small faction within the wider political landscape. The KKK were in fact, historically associated with the Democratic Party.
As for anti-semitism, that was the result of conservative rejection of the historical Jewish affiliations with the Marxism and Bolshevism originating from Karl Marx and some other revolutionary writers. It was no accident that many of the communists targeted by the anti-communist US senator Joseph McCarthy were Jews.
According to Encyclopedia Britannica, the term McCarthyism “has since become a byname for defamation of character or reputation by means of widely publicized indiscriminate allegations, especially on the basis of unsubstantiated charges.”
Britannica’s portrayal of not only McCarthy’s but anti-communism’s demise is a victory typical of the Marxists’ ability to turn situations on their head for their own advantage. McCarthy’s “paranoia” about communists in organisations like the US State Department and CIA eventually proved to be justified – a good half century later.
We know that communism was always globalist in nature, but also had the ability to morph into different movements like Fabian Socialism, the Frankfurt School, environmentalism, feminism, indigenism and more recently transgenderism. How ironic, as pointed out in a recent Cairns News contribution, that these movements have been rejected in Russia and China.
President Trump is leading a movement to rid the United States of the empires that these leftist ideologies have built for themselves within the US federal bureaucracy. The virtual internal coup against USAID is a stunning example and the European populist-nationalists are being empowered by that.
Hungarian President Victor Orban told the Spanish conference the “Trump tornado had changed the world in only two weeks”. “Yesterday we were the heretics but today everyone sees we are the future,” he said.
The newly-elected leader of the European Patriots Party, Santiago Abascal, hosted the summit. The EPP currently holds 86 of the European Parliament’s 720 seats. They are pledged to defending European identity and national sovereignty and opposing mass immigration.
