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

That’s what I’m waiting to see. We have to be patient.

Why the fuck would Europe hold a minute of silence for that piece of shit? He was a Trump mouthpiece, the same Trump that is fucking up economic relationships and who is basically enabling Putin.

Hey maybe there’s a guy with a hit list going around killing people. Or was that the Minnesota shooter that was out to kill a bunch of democrats?

Everything has to start somewhere.

Ooooof.

I made a huge mistake. I was completely ignorant of that fact. I’m a dumbass.

They were right to call me out on it.

I apologize to everyone.

Hey, honest question.

This comes from this video where Snoop made up that word to insult people who performed at Donald Trump’s inauguration.

Is it a racially charged word? I thought it was just a made word up by him. If it is, that’s my mistake and I apologize. I didn’t mean any harm to any community.

I wouldn’t even be surprised if that were a true story lol

Seriously. If this is your main instance, set up monthly donations. Even if it’s just 1$/£/€ or whatever. Times 16k that’s $16,000+/month. I donate to mine every month.

The fediverse is free because someone else is paying for it out of their own pocket. Not because they’re collecting and selling your private data. So do your part. It’s for the greater good and the freedom of the internet.

Cool. Wish more search engines would do that.

But, as far as Kagi goes, it’s a paid service and it’s an American company. So I won’t be using them.

That’s okay because Windows will be gone entirely from my PC in a month.

I don’t understand you people in this thread.

Ever since the debate, people have been calling for Joe Biden to step down from the presidential race and give the place to someone else.

Now I read the comments and everyone is criticizing and accusing the Democrats of not knowing what they’re doing? Are you for real? They’re doing EXACTLY what people have been asking for. They’re doing EXACTLY what needs to be done if they want to win.

Fucking hell you guys, make up your fucking mind.

Sincerely,

A Canadian with severe anxiety over your next presidential election.

The general attitude that people have where they need to be right at all costs and will insult you for thinking otherwise.

Like, it’s okay to admit that you’re wrong and have your views changed.
