  • European Fascism doesn’t exactly require a whole lot of beating, this time around. In 1933, Germany had a large population of young people that could be fed into the meat grinder of the eastern front. Right now, all of Western Europe is facing an impending demographic catastrophe with incalculable consequences. Case and point: Germany’s strongest birth rates have been in the years of 1962 to 1965 with a pretty sharp decline and eventual stagnation around the mid 2000s. Retirement age in Germany is 65-67, thus in the waning years of this decade, Germany will face labour shortages it will not be able to accommodate. Now, imagine if fascists come to power in Germany and actually expel the quarter of the population that has a migration background (which, on average, is considerably younger than the “Bio-Deutsch” population). The country would be in ruin effectively immediately. This is no economic basis for a major military campaign on the scale of Operation Barbarossa.

    The situation is not much better in the rest of Western Europe.








  • My guy, have you heard phrases like “100 Mrd. € Sondervermögen für die Bundeswehr”, “Wiedereinführung der Wehrpflicht” , shit like this? Or have you heard anything people like Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann have said in the past two years? Also, hasn’t the Russian army been struggling to overpower Ukraine for the past two years now? The poorest country in Europe with basically no functioning infrastructure to begin with that also is decidedly not a member of NATO? Wouldn’t the Russian Army have to cross the Baltic states and Poland to even reach Germany, triggering a response from all of NATO? Could it be they all the rhetoric about the Russkys expanding westwards is full of shit and nothing more but a fig leaf to sell austerity and a military buildup to the German populace?
