    Around the entire European Union, moderate liberals and even moderate conservatives are being swept out of office. It's deeply instructive for the Democratic Party. Running a moderate WILL NOT WORK. It won't. Moderate politics are not the answer to the rise of the far right.

        From someone sathere in Britain, please shout this loud! Moderation attempts are seen through as selfish personal manoeuvring. People have strong beliefs on big issues. Don't let the hate beliefs be the only ones with strong political options!

        Thanks for pointing it out. Judging from the actual results, I'd say there was a strong trend to the moderate, liberal centre...

        The far right made gains, but so did the liberals and greens. The center is still the big majority. The real change was that the two big parties lost ground, and the parliament got more fragmented. Unfortunately news seem to think that focusing on the right gets more clicks 😞

        And I'm here for it. DNC was holding a fundraiser here in Chicago for an anti-abortion liberal until people got wind of it and shut it down. They think they can push anyone they want down our throats because Trump is in office. Standards are standards.

        I agree, but that’s the problem. There is no compromise anymore. You have to be extreme one way or another. It’s not good.

        That’s because over the past 30 years the needle has been creeping to the right. It’s time for a revolution, the human species depends on it

        Honestly though, the vast population of the US isn’t following international elections so unfortunately deaf ears all around here. I’d love to be wrong.

        Progressive voters in Germany switched from SDU to the Greens; in the UK, left wing bloc had more votes than right wing bloc, but the left was split into several parties. The first place parties, however, were from the right. The first wave of populism is usually conservative.

        The media blames Muslims for the crimes of mercenary terrorist groups like Al Qaeda that are created & funded by Western states. They also scapegoat foreigners for the economic crises made by austerity, corporations & bankers These are the main reasons the far right are rising
