Donald Trump quickly avoided questions regarding Viktor Orban’s significant electoral defeat this past weekend, the foreign leader with whom he shared a particularly close relationship. Orban, a longtime ally and fervent supporter of Trump in Europe, was ousted after 16 years in power, a stark setback for the global far-right. Critics had long denounced Orban for undermining democratic institutions in Hungary, leading the European Union to label the country an “electoral autocracy.” The Trump administration had actively supported Orban, with Vice President Vance and Trump himself publicly endorsing the Hungarian leader in the days leading up to the election.

The article details the phenomenon of “transvestigations,” a conspiracy theory popular on the internet’s far-right that claims public figures, particularly women, are secretly transgender. This trend, fueled by transphobia and misogyny, involves scrutinizing photos and videos for perceived masculine traits, often using debunked pseudoscientific methods. Increasingly, even women on the right are becoming targets, indicating how widespread and apolitical such transphobic rhetoric has become online, threatening anyone with a public profile. Ultimately, transvestigations serve to demean women and undermine their credibility, reflecting a broader hostility towards LGBTQ+ communities and women who challenge traditional gender roles.

Anti-ICE demonstrators chase off outnumbered far-right activists at Minneapolis rally.
Well, it seems like the spirit of Minneapolis is alive and well! Stories like these always bring a smile, and the recent clash between anti-ICE demonstrators and far-right activists certainly paints a vivid picture. Thirty years ago, back when I first arrived in Minneapolis, I recall learning about the city’s history with groups like SHARPS – Skin Heads Against Racial Prejudice. These folks, as I understand, had a firm handle on keeping the local Nazi skinheads from gaining any real foothold. It’s heartening to see that this tradition of standing up to hate continues today.… Continue reading
After Renee Good Killing, Derisive Term for White Women Spreads on the Far Right, a deeply troubling phenomenon has emerged in the wake of the tragic killing of Renee Good. The language used to describe her and, by extension, other white women, has taken a decidedly nasty turn, revealing a disturbing undercurrent of misogyny and political animosity.
Specifically, the term “AWFUL,” an acronym for Affluent White Female Urban Liberal, has gained traction within certain conservative circles. This isn’t just a casual insult; it’s a deliberate attempt to demean and dehumanize a specific group of people based on their perceived political leanings, socioeconomic status, and, crucially, their gender.… Continue reading

Finland Apologizes to China, Japan and South Korea for Racist Gesture
So, it seems Finland’s government has found itself in a bit of a pickle, and the main subject matter is that they are offering apologies to China, Japan, and South Korea, specifically. This situation stems from a rather unfortunate event involving a former Miss Finland, who, let’s just say, made a very questionable social media post. The gesture in question involved pulling her eyes back to mimic the appearance of slanted eyes, accompanied by a caption suggesting she was “eating with a Chinese person.” This image and caption are undoubtedly considered racist.… Continue reading
Berlin prosecutors have charged a member of the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party with performing a Nazi salute in parliament. The incident allegedly occurred in June 2023, where the suspect greeted a colleague with a Hitler salute at the Reichstag building. The accused, identified by Bild as Matthias Moosdorf, denies the gesture and had his parliamentary immunity removed in October.
