The author believed that populism was transforming politics into a spectacle, where reality mattered little. According to him, it was enough to convince voters that one was acting differently from others for the truth to take a back seat. He cited Trump as an example. #populisme #politique #vérité #US (translated)

The author of the article published a satirical text styled as minutes from an extraordinary meeting of the crisis staff. In it, he described President Pavel's return from Morocco, his participation in the elections, acknowledgment of a mistake, and apology as a situation that thwarted the prepared criticism. He attributed to imaginary critics a plan to focus on the cost of the flight, the president's clothing, the car from the airport, his greeting to the electoral commission, and his expression. According to the text, they were to question both the apology and its timing, and to criticize the president regardless of whether he had left or returned. The author concluded by stating that the text is a fictional satire. #politika #satira #prezident (translated)

Oliver Gorus described Ulrich Siegmund as an exceptionally talented populist. BMW had given him a good opportunity, which Siegmund surely utilized, wrote Gorus. Thus, the AfD is achieving one success after another, while the establishment, out of arrogance, fails to understand the underlying mechanism. #Populismus #AfD #Politik (translated)

"It was nothing less than a miracle, as he laid the foundation for reconciliation between our countries, the two great countries in the heart of Europe, which had faced each other for many centuries as rivals, indeed as bitter enemies."

Regina Laska criticized that the AfD and BSW had presented their first joint substantive proposal shortly after the constitution of the new state parliament in Saxony-Anhalt. In this proposal, they demanded, according to their portrayal, to stop German financial and military support for Ukraine and to lift sanctions against Russia. The state government should advocate for this in the Bundesrat; a special session is planned for October 14. Laska referred to a statement by BSW faction vice Claudia Wittig, who had called for a policy that thought more about Köthen than about Kyiv. In contrast, Laska presented results from the Saxony-Anhalt Monitor 2025: out of 1,077 respondents, who could name up to three problems, foreign policy was mentioned twelve times. Infrastructure and mobility ranked first with 360 mentions, economy and finance second with 352, followed by social issues, jobs, and education. Laska wrote that decisions on arms deliveries and sanctions were made by the federal government and the EU, while municipal financial equalization was state law. Therefore, the AfD and BSW had initially used their joint majority for a topic that the state parliament could not change, rather than for municipal finances. She described this as populism and accused the parties of pursuing a policy in the interests of Moscow. #SachsenAnhalt #AfD #Politik (translated)

Pieter Casneuf asked soskar98 on what basis he derived his self-confidence to lecture workers. According to Casneuf, the addressee did not contribute to society, had never worked, taken risks, or started a business, yet acted as if he had knowledge of the working world. He called it plain populism and suggested that the chairman of Vooruit was manipulating society in a Trumpian manner. Casneuf asked when that would stop and what Vooruit thought of the budget. https://t.co/TVgYXu2nip #populisme #economie #maatschappij (translated)

"The Portuguese contribution to the Union budget is higher than that of all the frugal countries (except Austria), if we analyze it (as it should be, especially in a single market) in proportion to each one's GDP. I say one simple thing to all: giving 10 out of 100 is much more than giving 50 out of 1000. If we are not able to solve the concrete problems of people, we open space for the growth of demagoguery, populism, and extremism. That is why our response cannot be merely technocratic and rhetorical. It has to be political." In this context, Luís Montenegro did not fail to respond directly to the frugal countries: "The Portuguese contribution to the Union budget is higher than that of all the frugal countries (except Austria), if we analyze it (as it should be, especially in a single market) in proportion to each one's GDP.

Dr. Jan van de Beek wondered whether warnings about the far right were really what they seemed. He wrote that in 2026 many politicians considered right-wing extremism, populism, and Islamophobia to be more dangerous than jihadism or left-wing extremism. According to him, it was possible that the AIVD and the NCTV were periodically responding to this in order to maintain political support, and he did not rule out a sophisticated double game. https://t.co/owIjuQYJyQ #AIVD #Extreemlinks #Extreemrechts #Jihadisme #NCTV #Extreemrechts #Populisme #Politiek (translated)
