Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Please help us, how do we make it stop?
Can you undo too much immigration?
Maybe sending people like you back to level it out could work?
And then you guys ask yourselves why would anyone not vote in your favor.
Nice
Here is the actual answer:
Make housing affordable.
Ban housing as an investment and build far more social housing.
As long as countries succumb to the investors and make housing an investment this will only get worse.
The most important thing is to make sure the peoples basic needs are provided. If they do not have food, electricity, housing etc, they will get big mad at whomever is in charge right now.
Unfortunately that won't solve the problem, I see some people that have already everything, but they are just afraid of others, don't want to change their habits and don't want to share.
I guess the only way to change this mind is to talk, exchange, mix, share
Most right winger groups grow big by blaming on immigrants.
In the case of the rising immigration hate, it's the people blaming the housing prices on immigrants instead of cheap loans for investment bankers to snatch up all the properties with.
Well, they win because they get votes, what is it that they're unhappy with that they're drawn to the potential leadership of these parties? I'd start with that. These are democracies, so these parties can't gain power unless they offer the citizenry of their countries something they want.
That assumes a fair and level playing field and it really isn't
How so? The parties they're competing against are incumbents, and often, there are laws preventing them from campaigning. If anything they're at a disadvantage policitally, and yet they're winning. Obviously, what they're offering is popular for some reason.
In my opinion these parties are often mentioning valid issues or things that could be improved in society, and people vote for that. The problem is these parties don't really have solutions either, but that's something that doesn't show up until after the elections...
I think people have been waiting for solutions and they are reacting to those not being offered now, not in a potential future
I think more bureaucracy, more european funds giving money to their friends, more surveillance and more prohibitions should do the job.
If you want change, start by removing prohibitions, give back freedom of decision how people can live and die, start lowering cost of living by repairing existing infrastructure instead of only destroying it, start destroying monopolies, start promoting small businesses, stop all socialism, start respecting all people and their believes instead of promoting only one single source of truth - we are different, protect native culture, promote traditional family that is roots of europe. Stop promoting and spedning money only on new things and stop taking care of only of yourself.
But what I know. I'm nobody and the best I can hear is I'm under russian influence, I'm racist and I am underman because I dared to think by myself.
I... What?
If I were to plot all of your positions on the political compass, would that draw Rick Astley...?
Because of people like you Europe will die, because people are divided on those who are allowed to speak and who can't speak freely about what they feel because they're scared they would be laughted from and marginalized or more likely canceled - just like you did laughted my comment.
Hmmm nooo, I have no problem with you speaking, I'm just pointing out that what you speak makes no sense. That's just free speech :)
Well I fell the same about your text. Maybe that's what people are, they write without sense and read without sense.
