#EU #Elections #FarRight
This is unwatchable. Constantly conflating "far-right" with "the right" or anything that's not left. Pretty clear which camp the editors sit in.
May be they have an interest in keeping seats as they are. So many knows what trials could happens if juges where under the control of another political party. This is their biggest fear.
Beyond that, of course a few of the current seat holders are in the hands of the Open Society projects. Other are under control of Masson, who share similar views. The thing they don’t want is new politicians to come in and have a look on current « arrangements » and connections. This is dangerous, like all political changes are dangerous to those holding power positions. Changes will happen. Voters have to right to make their own opinions, whatever media says. This is how democracy works.
It´s not the moderate conservatives, that are increasing in popularity.
The first part was okay. With the grannies. Then it becomes too biased 😢
real
In Germany AFD = 1933. Brainy people know this.
This is very left biased. Poor journalism.
Expected from D W
Not if you're an actual leftist. This is just centrist drivel.
It's humanity
Stop crying
If immigration control and naturalisation is far right, then I guess I'm a proud fascist.
I feel sad for your insecurity, Russian.
And probably a certified I-IOT.

What's wrong with wanting to keep Germany German and Europe European?
I want both and I'm not a right winger.
Australia is for australians.
South Africa is for South Africans.
America is for Americans.
we could go on....
Sadly, Europe is already past all hope.
australia is for native australians.
america is for native americans.

The question is what qualifies someone to be a German or a European?
So Europeans who would like their governments to prioritize them over foreigners are far right now? A government serving the needs of its own people before fretting over the failures of other nations to manage themselves properly is completely normal. If the Luxembourgish government looking out for Luxembourgers is a shocking turn of events to you that's the clearest sign that you are immaculately dense and you're lying to yourself about the definition of common sense.
No government prioritizes foreigners over their own population.
Our (Estonia's) Far right party has been denying election results for a year and a half now, because they did badly in the elections and the liberals did good. They have no evidence of any election meddling, yet they continue their spiel nonetheless. And what do other parties "far-right" parties do? Accept them in. I have no faith in ID. They are not just parties that want to prioritize their countries over foreigners.
It's something I've never quite understood, because naturally people would like to assume they're "left" based on their overall views, but then you have actual left-wing governments completely prioritizing non-citizens over citizens, and when it comes to speaking out against it - people label you as a "right-wing" extremist. It's name-calling, and attempts to categorize people into groups in order to keep masses divided - but I'm glad to see this type of conversation / commentary appearing in the mist of the overall insanity.
@@dustywoood "completely prioritizing non-citizens over citizens" - Uh?
Partly true. What they miss out is that those "immigrants out rightwingers" are already in deep trouble because of lack of people to for german system to be able to work.
Could far-right parties take over the European Parliament?
One lives in hope.
They won't though.

@@soundscape26 The silly gits are trying to usurp the right as a whole. No deal.
If you go any further right, you’ll fall off the edge.
Not really. The edge are miles away. Edges lies in anger, when one party does not accepts polls or votes. Then rage kicks in. And that rage is dangerous, because it leads to a refusal of democracy and the use of force to impose your ideas. Now, a trend is clear to close borders. Tomorrow another trend may exists to open them. It is how the system is balanced.
Further right than your established right-wing Conservative politics is 'far-right'. If
I go as right as I can
Just like Americas founders did. The only way to get a Limited Govt is by going far right wing.
@@Despiser25But this is not about the US is it? We're talking Europe, who cares about what the founders did?
so basically fascism?
Less inmigration,more defence and more economic freedom that what eu need everything else is secondary
More economic freedom? We already have a well established market economy.
Which economic freedoms are you lacking exactly?
For the far left any centre is far away
And you've doing the same with far left.
No quite the opposite. Since we do not have any "Far Left wing" parties with any meaningful power in EU. But of cause if your not far right, you must be "Far left".
@@soundscape26 The far left is a spent force in Europe. Some dead-beat far-left parties may still exist, but they've got very few -- if any -- elected representatives.

@@madselmvig1457isn’t far left and far right subjective ?
Always protesting, never addressing the reasons people now lean rightwards.
It's mostly a problem with migration numbers, as for most other issues the European population keeps being quite liberal and thus mostly centrist on the whole.
Europe doesn't have a "right-wing." Fascists lean a little bit less left-wing than a Communist...
Only fools lean right. No excuse
@@nxo91 Discounting roughly half the population. How does that work out for you?
To DW everything right from center seems to be far-right.
Nah, everything right from centre right is per definition far right. You far righties are trying to pass yourselves off as 'the right', yet there's a clear dichotomy with the moderate right.
To the right everything left of far right is centre.
Exactly this in america i would not even be right but here its considered far right 😂silly stuff
To DW everything slightly right of the far left is far right.
More like everybody to the right of far left is "far right"! This is how the global commies operate!
I LOVE HOW DW PUTS A DOOM SOUNDING MUSIC WHEN TALKING ABOUT "FAR RIGHT" LOOOOOL
I noticed that LOL. They silently projecting fear!
cause the right is so badass 😎
😂
My first thought also😂😂😂
I noticed that too. I do think Germany, considering its recent history, has every right to feel some dread when seeing a resurgence of far right views. They've seen that movie before.
The right Wing parties sounds good. 🫡🦾😁🇪🇺
Until there is no public health, social security benifits etc..
Far right bootlickers for the rich and corporate elite.
@@user-nc2qj2jc5q no he said far right. Not far left.
How come its never called Far Left??
How bout conservative??
In America the Conservatives are trying to CONSERVE what Americas founders gave to us. European Conservatives are who Americas founders fought a revolution against, lol.
No. It's far-right. The Far Left wants to make sure we have more social housing, better wages, stablized prices, lower taxes for the working class higher taxes for those who hoard money. You guys just want to do what germany did about what 79 years ago? Yeah nah, we're not letting that happen.
it is, there is a far left faction in the EU parliament. Its just the smallest of all the favtions so it doesnt matter as much.
They themselves call themselves the far left, at the very least they are honest about it, the far right is in denial
You all are living in a state of cognitive dissonance, because you don't want to accept that you have been seduced by the far-right populism. People talk about far-left all the time when referring to far-left parties, and those parties accept it like a badge of honor. There are conservative right wing parties, namely the EPP. Then there is the far-right, which apparently seduced you, but you don't like to admit it, because history taught you that usually that's not the side you would want to be remembered for joining.
anything that is not left is far right.
Far right = very far from wrong。Europe rises！
What are talking about? It is too late dude,
When America Machine Empire Neo-collonisation Occupy our mind with Social media that's so end for European
“Far-right” = not pro-barbaric jihadists…
What about south africa, australia, america, new zealand, etc filled witb europeans?
Australia is for Aboriginals.
America is native Americans.
South Africa is for South Africans.
We could go on.....
@@kk7420 What problems do they cause?
So it’s easier to call someone “far right” rather than to look at the conditions that made people so upset and calling for change.
It’s important to take a good hard look in the mirror from time to time. But I suppose that’s too much to ask.
Perhaps the bigotry of the far-left and coalition between socialists and Islamists helps the far right?
You mean humanists and egalitarians representing a common good? Yea I can see why the far right finds that problematic
Ya think?
It appears to me that the Islamists, like Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Putin's Chechens are all allied with the Putin, Trump, Orban and the like. I really don't see any "left" anywhere. The old "social democrats", Labour party, etc. are now just middle of the road liberals. Of course there are no conservatives either. The "conservatives" have become the radicals, and their claims to be "anit-establishment" and anti-elite, are actually a front to eliminate the very last government and public constraints on a mafia like oligarchy. A bunch of multi-billionaires protecting their fiefdoms.
What coalition is that?
@@mmarques2736 The Gaslight Coalition.
Protests against democratic results seem really weird to me
Its because you havent paid attention to how Socialists behave.
Woke. Culture and immigration is what is driving the right support.
What is “woke culture” for you? Explain please.
It's a necessary correction for eu on its way to non-sesne. Europe needs its own Trump.
I'm against the immigration pact and green deal as it is now.
The New deal brought European Fascism to America in 1933.
The Green New deal will bring Communism to America.
I am pro anti immigration but hyper anti Russia.
For some reason not many parties represent this position.
A lot of EPP and ECR parties do.
It doesn't always make sense the way they divide opinions within the political spectrum.
And anti immigration but pro to environment
@@neneklampir6664 same. Pro environment.
At the same time I’m pro nuclear and renewable. So even as a pro environment there aren’t many options.
same. very anti-immigration but also anti-russia, pro (reasonable) environmentalist policies and pro-nuclear
Right wing Europe is what we need .
What about south africa, australia, america, new zealand, etc filled witb europeans?
Australia is for Aboriginals.
America is native Americans.
South Africa is for South Africans.
We could go on.....
Any thing that they don’t like just gets labelled as ‘far right’
Far right actually means a Limited Laisse-Fair Govt. Exactly what ALL Socialists hate most.
why does people call them "right" wing populists? Most of them have left wing ideas, but are conservatives, does people really know what does right wing mean?
DW will tell them what to think....
Because the left is anti-capitalist and uncompromisingly democratic.
Apparently they also think that national socialist were right wing. Truth is that main baddies in second world war were all socialist. USSR - international socialists, Third Reich - national socialists.
Globalists are ready to classify anybody as far right.
You know why the National Socialist party had the word Socialist in there? They killed all the socialists after coming to power...
Now connect the dots. It's only two dots.
It is all history now so it is impossible for people to know and understand these things.
People are being played again and Europe will be burned to the ground again because of it.
"are said to have" - no source? because the source has already been debunked
Woke is broke!
Woke is simply another name for European Commie=Fascism. Total Govt control over your life. Corporations can exist in this system but they make and sell things the Govt wants them to instead of what the customers want.
" Take over"? Is that another way of saying, "Be democratically elected to"? Is that another way of saying "Being given charge of by the people"?
Yes, "take over" doesn't necessarily means by force.
"german wine isn't the best" pffff, but our beer is =)
the entire piece was a bit biased.
Left has let us down for way too long. I'm voting right
Maybe the real problem is you dont have the IQ to know what left vs right represents... The left wants total Government control them in charge. History shows how that always works out.
lets hope so take europe back !!
The problem with liberal democracy is that it has less and less in common with democracy because the liberal elites are more and more like a feudal aristocracy living in salons, and the impoverished middle class is more and more like rebellious serfs. The liberal aristocracy calls the parties of rebellious visible serfs right-wing populists as if left-wing extremists, often detached from reality, were not problem . The right wing has no ideas for Europe only back to medieval Europe of warring kingdoms headquartered in the Vatican but left-wing extremists have no good ideas either
Good. The left woke brigade has had their chance and blown it
In your petty dreams. The majority at the EP will remain the same.
What? The Left/right dichotomy precedes such silly modern concepts.
This is even low for DW. Investigative journalism must not be biassed.
90% of comments are hidden, good work youtube and dw.
beware the "right" gambit
They fear the truth
TH-cam didn't even tell me my comment is hidden and the reason for that.
Nothing but comments from the "right" visible. So you're like 100% wrong.
Wouldn't that be democracy at work how about you embrace it than
i will never understand why so many people fall for the populist lies? It should be obvious that they are making promises they cannot keep.
The current government in Denmark is a coalition of centre-left and centre right parties. While still not perfect, it is definitely the least worst government we have had in my lifetime. The best way is always somewhere in the middle of the 2 extremes...
The centre is arguably more extreme than either left or right.
@@Rnankn How does that work, uh?
You mean the same government that went against so called "ethnic enclaves" and forced people who lived in their homes for decades to live somewhere else? Well, it's because so called "centre left" parties like the one in Denmark or Germany gave in to racists in order to appease them. They drew the red line more and more and just ended up with xenophobic and racist ideas, basically normalising them. Which in turn, drew most of the voters to the "original source" instead of those who just want to win their votes back.
Definitely
Because unlike Denmark, countries like Sweden and France where natives are becoming minorities in their own capitals.
With showing that French/German town DW has a new goal. Showing and glorifying how good it would be if Europe resigns national governments for the European one. Wicked DW.
DW, when are you going to worry about the far-left?
When there's reason for that? I'm not seeing communist parties surging anywhere.
3:19 - "I was shocked!"
Literally clutches pearls.
I vote right
Thats why you’re wrong
The group started with 18. Now, there are 41.
It won't be long, before there's a whole bus of them!
The last part of the video about the village is kinda out of place 🙄
Yes, of course, the United States should worry about the pocket leaders of Europe who may leave their posts.
Döbeln isn't a village. It's the second largest town in the county, having town charter since the 14th century. (You can see in the video too that it's not just a village. Do your moderators even watch the footage before announcing it?)
Well, I don't want to become part of the caliphate, so I know who I'm gonna vote for...
Let’s hope! Enough of the current system

"Everyone to my right is FAR RIGHT!" [every party and broadcast network in fear of loosing votes for their side] 🤣🤣🤣🤣
If the left wasn't beholden to Islamism and the totalitarian, anti-Enlightenment values it stands for, I would still be voting left.
This is the will of the people simple.
that transition lmao 2:24 🤣
I wonder what could have caused it….;duh
3% was the right percentage for Giorgia Meloni.
give some power to EU by choice or give away lots of power to Russia, USA and China involuntarily. Individual European nations states are to small and insignificant on their own !
I was going to watch this, but you lost me when you used the "post-fascism" term. That's poor journalism, indeed.
That would be a good change to prevent the EU from imploding. Continuing with the current batch, especially at the EU Commission and the EU Council levels will destroy the economic and financial foundations of the EU.
Let's hope so!
They aren’t far right, there just people with common sense
better far right than far wrong
Better hate than reason
Better far nothing
@@olivergarcia2304 I don't hate foreigners; i love my own country and culture.
If that makes me "far-right", so be it.

I don’t want to understand and will never understand why Europeans vote right. That seems to conflate with their ,,values,, unless they lied the whole time. I predict the right will cause a huge impact on Europe. The only left wing remnants would be Luxembourg,Montenegro and Lithuania? Lithuania performs democratic backsliding too. Then there’s Norway. So 4 countries remain democratic and left wing (Lithuania is semi-left)
European MEPs: Why has energy sector, which was built purely with taxpayers' money, i.e. hydropower and nuclear power, been run down and transferred to the hands of big capital, like the wood processing industry. Which do not need energy BECAUSE THEY PRODUCE THEMSELVES energy in excess of their own use.
Both P.., V... and K.. sell electricity to their owners at cost price. The actual cost price is 0.5 - 1.0 cents per kWh. These companies and all counterpower and district heating companies that also produce electricity get district heating on top of the sale. Only a heat exchanger is needed instead of a condenser.
In addition, it is clear when you compare the power (MW) in relation to the output (TWh) that you notice that, for example, V.. runs at 40% short load.
This is a fact. It would not be worthwhile to try to deceive those who understand the field.
Why would nature be of interest to MEP S when they are not interested in the most important thing, i.e. money? None of the future MEPs participating in the European elections are interested in the fact that European workers bear the majority of the tax burden, i.e. 7,000 billion euros?
Why don't the players in the derivatives trade (with a volume of 452,900 billion euros) pay enough tax on the 6% average profit they receive? The tax collection (1.9%) would generate a whopping 8,000 billion euros.
Why don't those who already have all of our money and capital want to participate in society's obligations?
Before, at the beginning of the 20th century, when the industry was being built, the factory owners built the apartments, hospitals, schools and pensions THEMSELVES with their own money, although even that money was collected thanks to the employees.
Doesn't the truth no longer apply that what is not right or reasonable cannot be law?

Looking at germany I an only compare this to my own country, Uk. Why is it that the media and other groups keep writing off people as "far-right" while also scratching their heads in confusion as to why people are voting this way. You either need to listen to the public or just prepare for even more discontent.
Because they are far right and they've made the problems.worse! This is farage's fault
@@bereal6590 the UK barely has any credible serious threat from the far right. The only far right groups are pitifully small, inept and hardly any serious threat, as opposed to other extremists in the country.
"Most of the neighbors see them as the problem not the populist parties." Maybe they are indeed the problem?
There is no use labelling anyone as left or right wing. It is clear, some portion of the society wishes to have another viewpoint. What lesson is to be learnt is, when mainstream parties swing too much to one side, voices will build on the other. Remember Newtons law, every action has an equal and opposite reactions. When one sides pushes extreme open borders, other want nobody to come in, or too much wokeism, sentiments against them build on the other side.
Far right 😂😂😂
George Washington was the most far-right politician in Human History. A Socialist in Germany in 1933 was not right-wing at all. No Socialist of any flavor can be "right-wing."
One can only hope.

@@emanueledes7 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Got your prince😂
I hope you also make many videos about the rise of far-left parties, the movement of center-left parties towards the far-left, and the dangers of far-left policies to Europe and the world. The obsession of the mainstream media with far-right parties without concerns for the bigger dangers of far-left puzzles me.
We have several historical and recent examples to show the disastrous consequences of far-left, socialist, and communist policies and it is important to keep the public educated on the dangers of the far-left.
We see the current impact of far-left, socialist, and communist policies in countries such as Venezuela, Cuba, and North Korea. These are existing countries with clear leftwing and socialist policies and we can see how badly they are doing. In recent history, we saw how socialism and communism led to the death of millions of people under Stalin of USSR and Mao of China, denied human rights to millions, oppressed millions and generated wide spread poverty and suffering. The iron curtain was all about far-left, socialist and communist policies on large parts of Europe and we saw their disastrous consequences.
The far-left and socialists should remind us of Lenin, Stalin, Mao, former USSR, Hugo Chavez, Nicolas Maduro, Kim Jong Un, Castro, and many others in recent history. The movement of many leftwing parties in the Western world towards more socialist and far-left policies seem more concerning than this constant obsession and demonization of far-right parties.
Please bring some balance to the debate to help people make better decisions. Thanks
Lets be honest. Todays "right" would be the middle-of-road opinion 20 years ago
no border fence between two countries, its how it should be everywhere
Come on, listen to the music at 02:28 - is this objective reporting?
At 4:29 you can see them with an ANTFA flag. Tells you what you need to know.
People complaining about being called far right here in the comments need a reminder that the groups featured in the video are the furthest right groups in the EU parliament so it makes sense to call them far right when you have a multiparty system. Of course, policy is much more important than labeling however, but their policies when it comes to civil rights and often workers rights are not my cup of tea.
Far right means normal non woke ppl

As an American it's extremely disturbing listening to the Italians argue over politics because it sounds identical to arguments here in the US. The divisiveness of our political systems are destroying our sense of unity and community.
The Italians basically invented polarized politics lol.

Vox populi, vox Dei.
Why are they "populist"?
This is not just about left or right, whatever that means .
It is about Europeans voting in a European election, for parties that who to demolish European integration. Especially France, who invented the concept.

What people forget is that families are smaller by choice for various reasons and many jobs are not attractive. Tberefore, some level of immigration is required.
I do however, feel that in public spheres, people who come to a country must abide by the laws of the land.
Right wing is right,not extremist.
