Is quite interesting how the conversation about the fairness of football finances is pretty much just restricted to the various super league clubs in relation to each other.

es ist ja nicht so, als hielte ich die linke über jeden antisemitismus-verdacht erhaben, aber dass die gesamte politische und mediale elite den vorwurf gebetsmühlenhaft wiederholt, ohne ein einziges beispiel nennen zu können, wo linke politiker*innen antisemitisch gehandelt haben, ist schon krass.

The mayoral discourse in Berlin continues to be *utterly* unhinged. If the AfD had topped the polls the narrative would be “finally the people have been heard!” but since the Left won, it’s all “Queer Islamofascists and Woke are trying to conquer us with, er, affordable rents!”

Excellent analysis. There is no sugarcoating what is happening here in Germany. Most of the political centre is enabling if not actively supporting the rise of fascism. The Left‘s remarkable performance in the Berlin elections is not being heralded as an earthquake but treated as a threat.

Zitatekachel RBB24:

„Antisemitismus gibt es in allen Parteien. (...) Ich sehe hier eine überzogene Diskussion, bei der es offensichtlich auch darum geht, die Regierungsbildung in Berlin zu beeinflussen. Es ist aus meiner Sicht jedoch gefährlich, das Thema Antisemitismus in dieser Weise zu instrumentalisieren.“

It’s worth noting and underlining that all of the parties to the right of Die Linke are much more vocal in their criticisms of that party than of the AfD. And to be clear, this goes very much for Green and SPD.

One thing that is very satisfying is that since several of Die Linke Berlin's most senior and high profile pro-Staatsräson members left the party in a huff, the party's electoral performance has significantly improved (and of course its politics have become objectively better).
