what are they even turning fascist for? it's not like there's communists anywhere near europe right now, are we just going to start doing pogroms against immigrants now? fucking worthless "continent" and i use that very loosely
Fascism doesn't require the threat of communism to exist, it simply requires capitalism to start showing signs of failure and then those who profit circle the wagons around their hoarded wealth and you're gonna get a fascism out of that if people don't stomp it down and replace capitalism so it can't happen again. They're the immune response of capitalism. The white power blood cells if you will.
Europeans have been shitting their pants about Muslims for decades now
someone in Germany stubs their toe
the polls:
the amount of concentrated 
that stem from a single german are enough to put the particle accelerator to shame
i dont think fascism requires the presence of communism to show up. Neoliberalism is destroying everything, the anger and energy of the masses has to be directed somewhere and there are only a few possible ways for it to go. Fascism is the least bad for the bourgeoisie.
I think you're landing on why allusions to historical fascism or the interwar period are kind of a limiting framework to understanding these parties
Europe has been steadily losing its neocolonial grip on the Global South, so it is inevitable they turn to fascism in hopes of reasserting their position as colonial metropoly.
Does fascism really need an actual communist enemy now that they're all convinced that even the blandest liberals are literally Mao reborn though?
I'm thinking no. And that's kinda scary.
Because they think muslims are a subhuman horde destroying Western™ civilization, and it's all orchestrated by the Woke©®™ (usually they mean jewish communists controlling society secretly)
The Germanic brain pan is incapable of complex thought and so turns to simplistic tribalism instead of civilization
Few Germanic brainpans developed scientific socialism so hold your horses there.
German unification first time as tragedy in 1871. Second time as farce 1990.
Germany should’ve been dismantled after WW1
Europeans when they arent fash for 7 years straight.
‘Oh my god how could our forward thinking society become like this?’
no this times different i promise
This was bound to happen. Liberals win against fascists by 2% and think that they've defeated fascism forever and never try to actually remove the rot.
If they tried to remove the rot, they would have to remove themselves.
economist sighted 
Of course, it's the Econo-piss...
We need a humanitarian intervention into Germany immediately.
Please!!
It is uncharted in that there can't be a state government in Thuringia and Saxony (and who knows maybe in all of germany eventually) that either doesn't include the far right or doesn't include every party except the far right
Spoiler alert: it's gonna include the far right.
It really seems like the living memory is the only reall window in which one can hope for a lesson humanity learns to persist. It's not lost on me the very last few people who remember WW2 are approaching zero by the day, and the closer to 0 living that number gets, the more violently capable fascism seems to be at re-asserting itself.
Shame the cold war is so much further than that from exiting living memory - every generation that grew up under duck and cover drills can't be redeemed.
*pretty damn well explored lebensraum..
i was extremely hyperbolic with my initial statement. it was wrong and i should engage in self criticism
They used this image for "hard right" which is fitting because the Iron Cross is in use by the bundeswehr last I checked, lmao.
Uncharted because this time the Reich will be universally supported by its neighbours.
