  • Yes. It’s a common reply to comments to point out that they don’t make sense, or defy rational thought.

    In your case, it’s pointing out that the wildfires we have experienced for 3 years in a row, where entire regions have had to be evacuated, villages nearly disappeared, where large areas of North America have faced extreme levels of smog pollution is… normal and long overdue. It goes against what every climatologist and other experts have said.

    So because of that, your statement comes across as ignorant and as denying climate change. That’s why people are baffled or upset at your statements.








  • According to the newspaper, she believes that the organization’s communication focuses too much on internal matters. She is still reported to continue the sailing trip to Gaza.

    “We all have a role: Mine will not be in the governing committee, but as an organizer and participant”, says Thunberg according to Il Manifesto.

    According to the organization, the intention of the trip is to “break the illegal siege” of the Gaza Strip by opening a humanitarian corridor by sea.












  • Mere weeks after the new government took office, Austria’s budget deficit proved worse than anticipated. The response was swift: stringent austerity measures to consolidate the budget, severely limiting investment capacity and forcing spending cuts. Adding insult to injury, these consolidation measures disproportionately burden lower-income households.

    As Austria grapples with record inflation and soaring living costs, the far right continues its surge. Since winning nearly 29 per cent in September 2024, the FPÖ has climbed to around 35 per cent in polls. Through sophisticated social media channels and their own media ecosystem, they spotlight every unpopular government measure and exploit each misstep with surgical precision.

    That’s the thing isn’t it? Neoliberalism is the only alternative in almost all western nations and they all implement the same thing: austerity. Every fucking time the working class gets screwed over by corporatists and see public services reduced and lose essential benefits to help ease their burden. The the right comes along and presents itself as the saviors of the working class and gains support through lies and deceit by exploiting people’s vulnerabilities.

    And socialism? Forget about it. It’s been ingrained into people’s minds that it’s evil incarnate through movies, tv, the news, social networks, etc. No one will ever vote for socialism by fear of losing what they have because they think the state will take away everything
