the FPÖ has focused on describing itself as a Heimat and "social" party. This means that the party has portrayed itself as a guarantor of Austrian identity and social welfare state. Economically, it has supported regulated liberalism with privatisation and low taxes, combined with support for the welfare state

Support for the welfare state? lol...

By 2010, under Heinz-Christian Strache's leadership, the party became more supportive of Israel. In December 2010, the FPÖ (along with the representatives of like-minded rightist parties) visited Israel, where they issued the "Jerusalem Declaration", which affirmed Israel's right to exist and defend itself, particularly against Islamic terror.[123][124][125] The party also recognises Jerusalem as Israel's capital.[126] At the FPÖ's invitation, Israeli Druze MK Ayoob Kara of the Likud party subsequently visited Vienna.[127] After the 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, FPÖ leader Kickl expressed unequivocal support for Israel's right to self defense and called for Austria to advocate for Israel within the EU by opposing resolutions critical of Israel and supporting Israeli security measures.

It's all so typical. "far-right" support for Israel. Merely an "anti-immigration" party. Jews win no matter which side wins, lmao.

Europeans are so fucked.

Oh no, "merely" an anti-immigration party saving Europe rather than indulging your anti-Jew obsession.

Why should I care about your anti-Jew obsession again?

I won't argue with you because it's pointless because I know who you are. What I will say is this for anyone observing the conversation. Take a mental note. In 10 years, reevaluate where we are and the "progress" society has made. When in 10 years, we still haven't fixed the problems and it seems things are getting worse not better, remember this conversation thread. That is all.

You see, I will be proven right and you will be proven wrong in time.

It doesn't matter who I am. Can you explain how it's in the interests of Europe and Europeans to be anti-Jew?

Things never get better. You're not exactly a prophet for pointing that out. Of course, blaming it on 'the Jews' is... interesting.

Well, why don't things get better?

When a corporation fails, you tend to blame the CEO, right?

When a ship sinks, you tend to blame the captain, right?

When a vehicle gets into an accident, you tend to blame the driver, right?

When runner loses the race, you tend to blame the runner, right?

Why then when a society fails to get better, you don't blame the people running the society? Who controls Hollywood? Who controls the banks? Who controls the education system? Who controls politics? Who makeup a vast majority of rich people? Who controls the media? If society is failing, shouldn't we be blaming the group of people controlling society?
