I really, really hope AfD gets banned. Germany has strong anti-hate protections, but enforcement on small groups is avoided because they're too small and not worth the trouble/attention, and enforcement on large groups is avoided because they're too large and powerful, so it's barely useful.
Canada often does the same thing.
Social science is often slippery like that. This is still pretty suggestive, though.
No. That is not an a known issue with anarchism, for example.
"Reactionary" specifically means trying to go back to a (often imagined) previous state.
reactionary <-> conservative <-> progressive
Ooh, a new cynical one-liner. I'm unironically excited about this.
Good. The whispers are so loud they barely even count as whispers.
The US is pretty safe. They can support Israel until the region burns to the ground with everyone inside, and it would be mostly business as usual.
If a wider war starts, everyone says move 1 would be Iran leveling the Gulf states. Europe gets it's gas from two places, mostly, and one is already tied up in a war.
There probably should be a carveout for that.
When you want to do a car bombing, but don't have a car. One day they'll be like the cool terrorists, with their ~~shiny new~~ beat up Toyota Hilux's and black scarfs.
Or not, you know with the whole suicide bombing thing. It sounds like the guy got away this time.
Mandatory "there's more than one version". You might think anarchism is also bullshit but it's not North Korea.
Israel is in no way a useful check to Iran. Everyone in the region either hates them or tolerates them for money. They do not have an interest in attacking Iran at scale abroad, or the population to sustain it. If anything they serve as a useful strawman for Iran.
Also, I'd like to point out our "allies" in the region are just as bad. Iran isn't a real democracy. Saudi is openly an absolute monarchy and holds public beheadings for fun.
Yeah, I kind of wish there was another word for the idea, because it's a bit confusing. I think originally it was "in reaction to progress".
Big and small c conservative is sometimes used to make the distinction in commentary, with big C being the reactionary stances that are common in right-wing parties that call themselves "Conservative", but I don't think everyone gets that either.
