#Romania / #Israel’s #Chikli has yet to meet a neo-Nazi he doesn't like.
Calin #Georgescu, a previously obscure far-right candidate dubbed the "TikTok Messiah," has emerged as the surprise leader in Romania's first round of presidential elections, sparking controversy and concern. Georgescu, who gained prominence through an aggressive social media campaign, has a documented history of praising World War II-era Romanian fascist leaders Corneliu Zelea Codreanu and Marshal Ion Antonescu, who were responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Romanian #Jews during the #Holocaust.
Turns out Israel's Diaspora Minister Amichai Chikli recently held phone conversations with Georgescu. The reported communication between Chikli and Georgescu raises serious questions about Israeli diplomatic engagement with far-right European politicians who trivialize or praise perpetrators of the @Holocaust.
The point of convergence between #Israel's current far-right government figures like Chikli and European far-right parties is their shared anti-Muslim rhetoric and policies. This practical alliance, despite the historical #antisemitism of these @European groups, appears to be based on this single shared prejudice.

Revenge Served Hot - by Mary L Trump
New York Times published an article last week called, “How Trump Could Punish His Enemies.”
I think it’s worth pausing for a minute to acknowledge how extraordinary, how outside the realm of politics-as-usual and the morally acceptable that is; how unconscionable it is that we have descended so far that we even have to have this conversation.

British "nationalists" taking his country back.
Imagine the worldwide reaction if BLM members were caught doing what EDL and Britain First hooligans have done in UK in the past few days.
The British police who sent riot police to fight the peaceful climate change protesters is mostly absent from the scenes of the lootings and destructive acts of the so called "patriots .
How TikTok bots and AI have powered a resurgence in UK far-right violence
Less than three hours after the stabbing attack on Monday that led to the death of three children, an AI-generated image was shared on X by an account called Europe Invasion. It depicted bearded men in traditional Muslim dress outside the Houses of Parliament, one waving a knife, behind a crying child in a union jack T-shirt.
The tweet, which has since been viewed 900,000 times, was captioned: “We must protect our children!” and shared by one of the most potent accounts for misinformation about the #Southport stabbings.
Experts have warned that new tools and ways of organising have seen Britain’s fractured far right exploit the Southport attack to unify and rejuvenate its presence on the streets.
In a surge of activity not seen for years, more than 10 protests are being promoted across social media platforms such as X, TikTok and Facebook in the aftermath of violent disorder up and down the country.

Far-right, including France’s National Rally, use AI to support political messaging, reports say
European far-right parties have used artificial intelligence (AI)-generated images to support political messaging, two new reports have found, but it is difficult to assess how those images may have impacted the recent French and European #elections.
Non-profit organisation AI #Forensics went through the social media pages of 31 French political parties to determine whether they could spot generative AI (genAI) content from May 1 to June 28, during the EU elections and the first round of France’s legislative campaign.

Decriminalise abortion amendment: US groups push #anti-abortion agenda in UK
A right-wing political and media ecosystem pushing a US-style anti-abortion agenda is gaining traction in the UK
Their campaigns in the UK are based on strategies honed and perfected in the US.
They use language shaped over decades to seed anti-abortion #falsehoods that begin on social media before becoming talking points on conservative-friendly TV stations modelled on right-wing US news channels and far-right podcasts. Crucially, those behind the campaigns also invest millions of dollars to push their agenda in the UK.

#Macron accused of doing far-right’s bidding with passage of stricter immigration law
French President Emmanuel Macron is under renewed fire after urging his minority government to vote for a strengthened immigration bill that was endorsed by the far right. The late Tuesday vote, which divided Macron's coalition MPs and prompted his health minister to resign a day later, was heralded by far-right leader Marine Le Pen as an “ideological victory” upon its passage.
