The star of Germany's left-most parliamentary party has quit to set up her own populist formation, based on scepticism on both green issues and on support for Ukraine, that polls suggest could capture up to 20% of the vote.
Wanting to appeal to the left AND the right is just a third-positionist, which just ends up being another flavor of Fascism.
What do you base your claim that third positionism is fascism? Also what do you mean by fascism in this context?
I think that is way to broad a claim to actually be accurate and useful in real life. At least in the context of US politics where left and right as usually used are both actually more right economically but differ socially.
IMO the confusion people have is often from trying to conflate economic and social / political views. I see some third positionists as somewhat left on economic views and somewhat right on social views. Fascism on the other hand is usually right on the economy and right on social views along with being authoritarian.
Are you concern-trolling?
Because it feels like it.
Third-Positionists claim to be centrist, arguing “bOtH sIdEs hAvE a fAiR pOIIInT”.
You cant just genocide “a tiny bit” or being “a little bit racist”, but in giving credit to the rights ideas, you enable them.
Its even on wikipedia and is accuratly mentioning the “Fascism on the left” thing.
She is supporting Putin, a fascist dictator and is spreading missinformation on the matter.
Google search: “Sarah Wagenknecht on Putin”. I tried it just know and boy there is a lot.
The other point:
This article mentions she calls herself a “left-conservative”, which is an oxymoron, and also just regular moron. Or in her case, dishonesty.
Because that would be social, but also national, fusing into national-social(ism).
Also anti-climate regulation, calling it “blind planless Eco-Activism, costing people money, but actually doing nothing for the climate”. Literal denial of the efforts we make to safe the world.
Another very Fascist talking point.
Fascist cant defeat the Climate Crisis, because you cant it by being racist and unfuckable, some of the only things they actually do well.
Also:
Economic Policies ARE Social Policies.
If you are right on them, you are just on the right.
The idea that both are separated is naive at best and active malice at worst.
Sarah Wagenknecht is basically a Tankie and quite popular with the right.
Her leaving the left party (“Die Linke”), potentially siphoning votes from the right and causing fragmentation there is a good thing.
Also remember: Wanting to appeal to the left AND the right is just a third-positionist, which just ends up being another flavor of Fascism.
I would not trust her, but I recommend reading further into the matter to get an accurate picture.
