Contrary to popular assumptions, it appears that younger Europeans are getting more rightwing than previous generations, with many expecting to vote for far right parties in upcoming elections. So what exactly is motivating this shift in Gen-Z politics?

Hello - this video has proved more controversial than usual, apparently because a significant number of viewers think we're (perhaps deliberately) overlooking immigration as reason that young European are voting for the so-called "far right". This is in some sense fair - after all, polling suggests immigration is the main reason Europeans are voting for the "far right" (x.com/SteveAkehurst/status/1799935834168377532 ) - but we were specifically trying to explain why YOUNG Europeans were voting for the far right MORE than their older counterparts, not why the far right was on the rise generally. On this count, Eurobarometer polling (europa.eu/eurobarometer/surveys/detail/3152) suggests that young Europeans are actually less likely than older Europeans to cite immigration as a policy priority for the European Parliament elections, hence why we didn't consider it a sufficient explanation.
P.S. we nonetheless made a number of errors in this video, including:
- misnaming Germany's Social Democrats as the Socialists
- typo suggesting 11 year old Finns could vote
- presenting Flanders-specific polling as Belgium-wide polling.
For these errors, we can only apologise: we know that this is a recurring problem and we should be doing better.
Nonetheless, thanks for watching - Zac
"Far right" is wrong to say. The biggest coalition is the centre right. Easyest answer are that most of us care about the things closest to us like famely. Its hard times and when you feel that the leftwing extremist partys aren't taken seriusly and your child comes home and the school have had a trance week och they teatch ideologi instead of facts... well that makes you care. The left need to cleen up there extreme parts of there political side. You get tiered of hearing about the nazi when the leftwing extreist aren't taken as serius. Gender ideologi for example is sience and the fact denial extremeist part of the left. Yes, the rightwing has there versions and extreme sides and idées and parts that don't belive in other typ types of science. But media only looks at the rightwing weirdos and not the left, because they are those/beleive those weird leftwing stuff. Atleast here in Sweden. Its just ....
And stop call everything far right ffs. Voting rightwing shouldn't be put forward as an automatic bad thing. Its so wierd. There are good rightwing partys and idées and personnally I think the compromise between the two sides give the best results.
You guys make great content. Thank you!
Yeah... it's just a coincidence ... AGAIN! You really think people are stupid don't you?
At least instead of censoring comments like DW news, you admitted there is a portion to it
I find it extremely amusing that you don't talk about people seeing their countries turning into Middle Eastern & African and they are not interested in that. As to the US and Australia - the problem there is not extremely drastic so far, so the youth is voting for the rose ponies.
2 Things:
1. Immigration
2. Old people draining the system
also economic stagnation
But also, who ruined their futures.
Tories plus Brexit has been a disaster for the younger generations.
And the only real alternative are labour.
Whereas in the EU the constant denial by progressive or left leaning parties regarding misbehaving immigrants of a certain religious background is starting piss off people and with the exception of Denmark, parties of the left have ignored or downplayed the issue, which helps the fringe and right wing parties.
Young people don't want to have the right wingers in power, but if the others do not address the problem, they almost have no choice.
Coincidentally, now , a couple of days before the elections the German SPD has accepted the fact that there is a problem
@@nizada290 Lots of cute asians and latinas immigrate to the US and young women are still on average very left wing
Oh, so their contributing to taxes for decades should be for everyone else BUT them...? What a greedy loser; you're like my exPig w/the cloven pigfoot out.
This isn't the Ants & the Cricket, where all the ants do the work and then cricket does jack shit and then expects the ants to take care of him when winter comes. It's a fable to live by.
Immigration is the only thing keeping your countries alive. What is killing your countries is the rich monopolizing resources while driving the price of everything up. All these GDP per capita nonsense is just smoke and mirrors.
Something you didnât talk about is immigration, which at least in Belgium is nearly the only reason people vote for the far right.
I would guess it's the same for UK, at least the only reason we might vote tories/conservatives. The only reason everyone is voting liberal is becuase the Tories seem to have no idea what they're doing, it's less voting for the left and more strategic voting.
Same in Sweden, immigration and gang related crime are by far the biggest factors
Least racist european
Exactly. I don't like those far right parties at all, but they do have a point about migration (especially from the Middle-East and Africa).
Indeed it's ridiculous, it's literally 90% of why people vote them đ€Šââïž
You must be pretty astronomically out of touch with EU politics if you can make a 9 minute video with this title, without even once mentioning immigration.
Thst is why their kind cause so much crap .The elephant in the room ,.So dishonest ,cant be trusted
no they are not, the immigration is a symptom of higher level factors
@@jukeseyable Exactly, immigration didn't just pop out of nowhere and you cannot stop it unleess you address the root problems. Even now thosee countries he mentioned are in support of israel but God forbid if those same people they're helping to die come knocking at their door for a better future. Whilst all they had to do was force a ceasefire
Immigration is mainly a fake problem by radicalised right wingers who never spoke to a refugee or never try to grasp how the daily life in cities is actually like. There are no end time scenarios in cities as right wing media pretend to be.
@@suggondees4882 They don't have to come here. There are a lot of stable and closer countries with smiilar cultures they can do to. Also, most migrants are NOT war refugees. Most migrants are economic migrants.
But you are right, we have to address the root problems : how opened our borders are and how lenient we are to illegal migrants. Make a country where anyone who comes here illegally (there are legal channels, don't make "breaking the law" the first thing you do when entering a country) are placed in jail with forced labor. Don't give migrants free housing and free money. Don't make being migrant here appealing, and you won't get migrants. People don't cross a quarter of the world to migrate to Korea, Japan, China, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Paraguay, etc. I wonder why ? Boom, root problem solved.
Leaving out immigration is you not doing a very good job on this one. Itâs a huge factor.
It's not a mistake ;)

Immigration is a main issue. In the Netherlands young people are unable to find houses. Boomers are sitting on tons of wealth and immigration laws make it so we have to give immigrants housing as well. Dutch youth is feeling forgotten.
The problem is the tons of wealth of the boomers - not the immigrants.
Same problem in the UK
@@ThatTallGuy0 And Canada. Immigrants are given priority, even over veterans and youth, disabled, etc. But native poor are offered MAID instead of help to live.
Interestingly though the vote doesnÂŽt seem to differ by age much in NL, i.e the PVV got about the same circa 30% with all age groups.
I tend to think the opposition to immigration is mostly cultural, rather than economic. Indeed, the PVV vote is lowest in big cities and bigger in smaller towns. I think the reason why the PVV vote is increasing is mostly opposition to multiculturalism.
Myself, I would never vote for Wilders in a million years, but I think that some mistakes have been made, not in terms of the number of people so much, as things like insisting university courses are taught in English to satisfy foreign students when really itÂŽs them who should make the effort to learn Dutch. When I lived in the Netherlands I thought that policy was bonkers and I was disgusted at how few international students showed any interest in Dutch culture.
As for housing, itÂŽs not true that foreigners get priority, you canÂŽt exclude EU migrants from public housing or people who are legit refugees, but there are ways that Dutch people get more points (and so it should be, i.e long term residency in the town in question).
At the end of the day though, I think Wilders is a dangerous man and a liar, itÂŽs funny how when in the VVD for years he never challenged economic liberalism once.
Same in Germany.

here lets give an example jake: everything you have ever thought in your life was downloaded to your brain by twitter(or insta, or facebook or something else) so you can't possibly have a valid opinion.
Young people are far more concerned about what the country will be like in 2 decades.
and voting for climate change denying parties will really help with that
And sadly don't bother to see how badly the decades long rule of center right parties have stagnated Europe. They foolishly thing going even harder into these policies with the right will solve anything.

I was on a bus in a ski resort in USA about 2-3 years ago and a young woman from sweden was talking to someone and I overheard what she said. She literally left due to islamic immigrants ruining her home country. Her words, not mine!
Number 1 issue - Immigration legal and illegal.
it really is
Yup, prioritise ourselves before some fucker who doesnât even respect our countries comes in.
Itâs simple
Whats wrong with legal???
@@juanDE1703 Well I think what mostly needs to be improved are asylum and deportation laws, whether those affect legal or illegal immigrants is secondary.
@@juanDE1703 Big effect on rent and house prices. High immigration means more demand for housing. Basic economics of supply and demand means that more people competing for housing will increase house prices. Also many young people feel they have been denied the rich history and culture that their parents grew up with because of the modern push from the establishment to embrace diversity. Its like a weird feeling of nostalgia for something you never experienced.
And not even mentioning immigration is wild
the far left does not want to accept that they fucked up by allowing so many people in. To recognize the problem, you first need to admit you fucked up else it wont progress forward at all.
These propaganda mercenaries would die rather than accepting nobody is buying their lies anymore. They're fucking pathetic.
Most is Islamic gang immigration n their ladies making 4 to 5 babies on avg
You could try watching the video. Itâs right here: 5:07

That's not far right, that's just right.
No, this still is, lol. Many of these new far-right politicians are fascists.
Exactly. That only seems far right to people because politics has shifted massively to the left in the last 10 years. What we are seeing here is a political shift to the state we had in 2014.
@@pinktfatrabbit politics has not shifted to the left. dont be a useful idiot. neoliberalism is a right-wing ideology. we are more right-winged than ever. anything more right than that is literally far-right. of course i consider all right far-right of course. i am very biased against proto-fascists. they always end up there somehow. why do you think they despise migrants so much and spend so much money in the media fearmongering? if the right wins, the only people benefitting are those who were already in power. minorities are not going to be represented, workers are going to be in much more horrible conditions, etc... the right is and never was for the people. read history.
And they were always RIGHT most of the time
Ignoring the elephant in the room, immigration, can only be due to political correctness, 'wokeness' and a fear of being called racist - the very things that got us into this mess in the first place.
Christ, did anyone actually watch the video? They mentioned immigration.
I am confused, are you saying that this guy ignored political immigration BECAUSE he is left leaning?
@@repacharge431 No I am not saying he is left leaning. I am staying that he is so politically correct that he, like many others, feels he can't discuss immigration for fear of sounding racist. He has not got his head round how to separate immigration issues from appearing racist. I am 100% not racist - I have had many friends over my life from many different races. But uncontrolled immigration cannot continue for practical reasons such as public service provision, housing and effective societal integration.
â@@repacharge431Yeah duh its also EU financed propaganda everything about the EU is perfect according to this channel
@@gdok6088 "uncontrolled immigration cannot continue" no countries have uncontrolled immigration. The fact that people think they do shows how little they understand about actual immigration systems. I know someone who emigrated from Pakistan to the UK and it's very hard.

its a leftie channel, ofc they dont want to talk about that
Yeah, younger people are fed up with all the immigrants...
@@PerfectAlibi1 No, they're fed up by the fact they can't get affordable housing. Which is where immigrants do play a minor but still significant role in (financialization and lack of building housing being the major causes).

Making a video like this and not talk about immigration/islam is utterly politically tonedeaf.
Anti agenda, but Don't worry they will find a way to blame israel
Telling the truth about ghe peaceful people would go against the managerial bureaucratic values that journalism now considers to be "impartiality".
United State of America -Child protective Services are now placing American disabled children in foster care with Somalian families. Most cultural practices are based off Islamic traditions. Households are largely male-centered, and male family members often serve as the decision-makers or spokespersons. Somalian has long been a patriarchal society, where men hold most of the power and women face significant discrimination and gender-based violence. Married women are expected to cover their bodies including their hair. Some Somali women wear veils to cover their faces. Islamic law allows a man to marry up to four wives. Women, for their part, are permitted only a single husband. Although not all Somali men are polygamists, a sizable minority are. It would not be unusual to encounter a Somali man married to two or even three women, if not the full four. Every year, members of the Somalians send approximately $1.3 billion to their friends and relatives in Somalia. So the money the foster parents get is sent to Africa.

When you realize its not an accident you'll know you've broken the brainwashing against your own people.
Even in the US, young Guys are massively shifting right. While almost everywhere Single women are even more left.
Womens voting rights were the beginning of the end for this world.
the 19th amendment was clearly a mistake.
Statistically, guys who lean to the right end up single or have a bad love life. Right-wing bigotry is obviously repulsive to women who live through the actual material realities that make them left-leaning. This is why most women are left-leaning. Why would women want to go back to a time where men only viewed women as nothing breeders? Why would any sane woman date a right-wing man that is against women's rights. More young guys are massively shifting left, not right. Those who are shifting to the right have been sold the classic lie from the imperial rulebook. You will end up wondering why you are ostracized from society for carrying outdated thoughts, then wonder why you are single. Many women chose to be single today because there are still a lot of outdated men who think themselves the victims. Want to have a good love life? Stop being involved in right-wing politics. No, the democratic party isn't leftist if you are wondering. Both republicans and democrats are neoliberals, which is right-wing. Men and women who touch grass and are involved in their community will become more left-leaning as they realize capitalism's many contradictions, especially in today's age of mass technology. We are all in the same boat, there is no reason to be right-wing unless you actually own capital (the means to production), love to be a bootlicker, or just dislike minorities in general. I have never seen a right-wing person advocate for civil rights. They're always arguing about useless stuff, like immigration, instead of actually talking about the underlying problem that is causing the immigration crisis. Ironically, immigration should be welcomed in developed industrialized nations as birth rates decline. The EU won't get anywhere if blatantly racist parties gain power and let their populations die and enacting policies that do not fix the problem.
That's why they're SINGLE
Why isn't he mentioning France's case in his video? 32% of French women voted for the RN, ahead of French men (31%). There's no gender gap anymore in France for the bellow 35 yo far right voters.

Those over 70 aren't responsible for the surge in crimes- unlike the imported men from the middle east and Africa. But sure, blame the old for the WEF white replacement agenda.

In the Netherlands we've the rightwing Tory like rule to thank for that though. 22 years of rightwing rule. 30% tax cuts for work immigration and they barely build any houses. Asylum seekers don't have the money at all to buy houses. The pensions aren't a problem at all in the Netherlands and jobs are neither.

Weâve been treated terribly by the system our parents put in place.

Yea pretty much
It's more about the fact that they aren't promised a house or a good job anymore, all they are told is to shut up and work like good little workers and they MIGHT get a good landlord and be a good little citizen.
Here's a lot of bullshit that young people today have to deal with today:
- They have to pay for the old people that are currently retiring, because previous government promised those generations a retirement, yet they don't do that for the current young people.
- They have to pay exhorbitant taxes for government spending that they mostly don't get to choose what they are being spent on because majority of EU's population is old people (or at least older than them).
- They have to deal with illegal immigration and be told that they are unethical or narcissitic if they don't allow people to just settle into their country, get a house before them and get paid for doing nothing meanwhile they are struggling to even get a stable job and a good house.
(Hell about the immigration thing, even immigrants who got here legally are complaining because they had to fight tooth and nail to stay in European countries for upwards of 3-5 or even 10 years in some cases to get their citizenship, only to be treated like shit when compared to the illegal immigrants)
- Their pay is incredibly low when compared to the workers in power houses like United States when it comes to professional work (medicine, tech, law, etc) and they have almost no good retirement options like America does with Roth IRA or 401k.
- Culture wars between populations that don't serve anyone and detract from more pressing issues like climate change.
- Both supposedly left and right parties do whatever they want and end up being the same party with a few different opinions here and there, almost all parties are shit in one way and another.
- The green laws are made with good intentions, but do we all know the saying "The road to hell is paved with great intentions"? In the end the WAY in which the government is shifting into green is insane, it's too extreme and electric cars are nowhere near enough the standard to be able to replace normal cars, it feels like the new laws were created with a Tesla representative behind them or something.
Hell, I'm Gen Z, and I'm considering voting a far right party just to say fuck you for not listening to me or my peers, now you get what you deserve I don't care if the economy or society goes to shit as long as I'm finally being heard in the middle of it. Personally I'm probably more aligned with center, but if those parties just end up being middlemen for the left and right leaning populist parties then I'd rather go in flame than remain silent and dying amidst this economy.
Of course considering, I'm willing to give a shot at reconciliation that other parties are promising right now in their European goals towards young people right now other than the far right, but if this goes once more for 2-4 more years I'm going all in on that idea on the next elections.
Can you explain 1.?
I think itâs more about young people being disappointed with the political establishment. In my country, Sweden, we have a big youth unemployment problem, and a housing market which is absurdly bad. Meanwhile the parties in the centre espoused a very relaxed migration policy and very generous programmes for migrants whilst the actual citizens had problems getting started with adult life. Since young people feel that the established parties have failed them, they go to the opposition. For women itâs mostly the far left party, and for men, the far right party. What tells me that itâs more about young people being fed up with the establishment is that in the UK, if young people were the only ones to vote, the tories would not even get a single seat, while almost all of England would be labour, wales would be fairly green (as in Plaid Cymru) and Scotland would be very SNP.
I don't know how it's in Sweden but in the Netherlands people come with the same complaints about asylum seekers having it easier and getting a lot of benefits, but that is actually not true in NL at least. What I always find strange is this hyperfixation on asylum seekers in the Netherlands, and people say yeah but there is a housing crisis. So why don't talk about that. Why are people not having discussions about what is leading to the housing crisis and what governments can do.
It is not popular to try and talk about solutions to problems rather than going with the simple default complaining or stating the cool hardliner answer while saying others arw idiots. It's too hard and not good as a evening beer chat to have with the bros. Thus one young people, as old ones, go with what resonates the most. Hardliner rethoric on immigration, which is more like a symptom than the disease. For women the emotion that resonates thr most is probably empathical towards the poor rejects of society, which again is just a go to simple story.
As for the older ones the default option has already been given, the establishment center-right or left, no need to think too much. I think this can pretty much explain these trends
It's immigration point.
I would say that Scotland is already very SNP, or at least it was in 2015 when they won 97% of all the seats in Scotland! They're a peculiar party, though. They're a nationalist party but quite left wing (at least a few years ago, I think they're more centre-left now) and because their main objective is independence they contain everything from the far left to the right and therefore appeal to most people in the country (even if they don't support independence). But as your point says, they're a reaction against the establishment (even when they're in government) and are especially popular among young people.
You know this channel has a tape over its mouth when it doesn't once mention immigration as an issue in a 9 minute video about such a topic.
Trust me, if mainstream parties seriously tackle the immigration issue and people trust them, nearly all of these votes will go back to them.
Now however, I don't know if they can regain that trust after all these years...

Why are Eastern and Central Europe being ignored when made such polls?
They don't care about them
I think they were not ignored its just that young people there dont vote so much for the far right
My guessing because western Europe seen as more liberal
@@louisjefferies2733 yeah, the contrast is bigger with that regard and central eastern europe tends to be more right wing by default
I think because the western decision making can alter EU policyÂŽs over the Eastern ones..

For Germany, the reason is quite clear. The young generation is feeling the effects of immigration particularly strongly. In many schools, German students are increasingly exposed to a greater influence of Islamic-conservative values from their Muslim classmates. Foreign nationalism by Arabs, Turks, Albanians, Serbians, Palestinians is also playing a role. There is a trend for being anti-german and anti-west for many young people with an immigrant background. There is also more and more violence, such as all the knife attacks, and less and less scope and opportunities to discuss the issue. Criticism of this violence is always equated with racism. The state is also incapable of acting. If you are the victim of a serious act of violence today, the likelihood of the perpetrator being convicted is very low. Other issues are the developments surrounding the war in Ukraine, economic prospects and a left-wing bubble that is more concerned with woke issues than honest social justice. Some of these issues are not so present among older people.
Here in Czechia, I see more and more black people who are not muslim and they look totaly fine, you see them with kids outside playing at kid's playgrounds or you see new generations of Vietnamese doing the same and this is how it should look, this is immigration I support, what is happening in Germany or France is just scary for us. And believe or not, integration of Ukrainians is not that ideal as you may think, because it's not true that their culture is that compatible and similar enough, it's not, when we have some problems with foreigners, it's mostly one of these 3 nationalities - Ukrainian, Romanian or Bulgar.
Vietnamese people may look more incompatible and distant, but in reality, they are more compatible than Ukrainians.
I support Ukraine in this war ofcourse, don't take me wrong, I am just saying that immigration is a big topic even here where we don't have that much muslim immigrants and our immigrants are from so-called "compatible countries" but it's in reality not that compatible.
Thank you for sharing your experience in Germany. I am in the UK and I agree with everything you said. It's just that the Conservative Party is imploding here and the majoritarian electoral system in the UK is pushing people back to Labour who are comparatively more central, as explained in the video. However, I think there will still be a rise of the far right in this election in the UK in the Reform party. So let's see.
â@victortang1015 same reason in the USA, American Democrats and liberals are just more in the center then American Republicans and conservatives.
Republican and conservative policies are DEEPLY unpopular among younger Americans like GenZ are the champion voice of lgbtq rights, student loan forgiveness, abortion rights, restrictions on gun ownership, rebuilding the justice system from the ground up etc. GenZ Americans tend to be more progressive and liberal both socially and economically.
This one reason alone could cost Trump the election, especially since Biden won GenZ voters by over 40% points in 2020 which ultimately won him the election.
In comparison, Biden only won the national popular vote by 5% points, meaning that GenZ Americans are 35% points more left wing compared to the nation as a whole.
As a Muslim growing up in Germany, I see the problems of violence from foreigners and the disrespect the Germans are getting sometimes. However, I am always disappointed that problems are attributed to my religion since my religion teaches that no culture is better than the other, and no people is better than the other. The biggest problem is nationalism of foreigners and the perception that their culture is better than the German culture. I would have also voted for a right-wing party since Muslims are hold in general conservative values. But the AFD for example explicitly states that Islam doesnât belong to Germany, which means my way of life and I as a person do not belong to Germany, although living here for my hole life, studying and working here.
â@@pal-ly302 mate, every Muslim I've known put their religion above everything else, and not just their faith; speaking Arabic, eating halal, dressing like back home, etc. Basically putting this islamic culture above the country they grew up in, and frankly being quite arrogant and disrespectful about it. Your scripture might say something, but clearly that's not how the Muslim community behave. You might be genuine with what you say, but you need to open your eyes about your community. People in Europe were fine with immigration as long as you work, respect the country's culture and history, and assimilate over time. All immigration in Europe did that over time (my family is among them), but sadly immigration from Islamic countries refuses that. Hence the stigma
Another day, another TLDR about how Europe is going Far Right.
because there was an election and they are talking about the fricken facts of that election??

Just a question, is it about the actual immigrants you have that you feel are incompatible with your culture? Or is it moreso about fear that you will end up like Western Europe, so you want to avoid that and vote for parties that campaign against it?
Here in Hungary, our government makes noises about keeping immigrants away, but there has been a pretty big wave of foreign workers here recently, mostly from Southeast Asia. They aren't really causing any problems, but people fear that this will still create cultural issues (usually because of what they hear about Western Europe, and how multiculturalism in general has failed, according to them) or will open the gates for those immigrants with "less compatible culture" if we continue like this (hey, it's their words, not mine).

I am 20 and voting right (afd). There are several reasons for this:
- The disaster that is the green idilogy: This includes but is not limited to a senseless nuclear phase-out (we are now buying nuclear energy from france); regulations of heating and mobilitity (E-cars) that comes dangerously close to a planned economy, The conscious attempt of deindustralisation (The greens want to cut energy consumption by 45% even if all climet goals are met)
- The unprecedented Taxes (they can exeed 45%), that are only to grow as the goverment burns billions by gifting it to other countries (like China, India usw.) or spending it on useless green projects; Our economy has stagnated, buisnesses are fleeing the Country and a recession is imminent
- The shift in culture: Crime rates have gone up tremendously since 2015, with attacks on police, politicians and notably girls becoming more and more frequent. There are now demonstrations that demand the abolishment of the democratic system in favor of a "caliphate". Schools are becoming more dangerous as any critisism of the moslem faith or the left Idiology can leed to beatings or expulsion. The young generations is directly exposed to this madness, and we all had enough.
- I want to be proud to be a German. Everywhere i look, every left politician is activly hating this country. To show a German flag is automatically far fight. To sing the national anthem is automatically far fight. Why do i have to feel bad to be born in this country?
I could go on and on, or explain every point in more detail. To say that every person that votes "far-right" is just hating immigrants or is just anti establishment is comletly ignorant and ignores real problems plaguing the west. Young people voting right is just the natural response to the decline of our culture and economy.

Da ich Insiderwissen habe, muss ich dich hier unterbrechen. Deutschland kauft keine Atomenergie von Frankreich. Der Stromhandel ist komplex und Strom wird sehr hÀufig am Terminmarkt hin und her gehandelt.
Was den Spot- und den Ausgleichsenergiemarkt betrifft, muss das Netz möglicherweise einen Teil des Stroms aus anderen LÀndern importieren, um Spitzen abzudecken um wiederum die Frequenz von 50 Herz sicherzustellen.
Dies liegt jedoch daran, dass Deutschland den Strom zuvor auf dem Terminmarkt an Frankreich verkauft hat. Denn Frankreich hat ein kleines Problem mit Atomkraftwerken. Ironisch, ich weiĂ. Denn einige davon mussten abgeschaltet werden, weil es Probleme mit der Genehmigung gab. Daher kauften französische HĂ€ndler Strom z.B. aus Kraftwerken aus Deutschland. Wenn viel Wind weht, wird der ĂŒberschĂŒssige Strom auch mal ins Ausland verkauft. Das kommt regelmĂ€Ăig vor
Mit anderen Worten: Es ist alles viel komplexer als âAtomkraft ist toll, die GrĂŒnen sind dumm.â
Bitte spreche darĂŒber mit jemandem, der beruflich Stromhandel betreibt. Bitte nicht mit mir... ich habe jetzt Freizeit und brauche etwas abstand vonn dem ganzen Kram...
Wenn diese Person viel Geduld hat und ĂŒber persönliche Vorurteile hinwegsehen kann, wirst du schnell erkennen, dass die RealitĂ€t viel komplexer ist. Bitte informiere dich zuerst und entscheide dich dann fĂŒr eine Partei.
Wenn du dann immernoch fĂŒr Rechtsradikale wĂ€hlen möchtest, ist das dein gutes Recht und ich werde dich nicht aufhalten... wie auch?

Since I have insider knowledge, I have to interrupt you here. Germany does not buy nuclear energy from France. Electricity trading is complex and electricity is very often traded back and forth on the futures market.
As for the spot and balancing energy markets, the grid may need to import some electricity from other countries to cover peaks to ensure the 50 Hertz frequency.
However, this is because Germany previously sold the electricity to France on the futures market. Because France has a small problem with nuclear power plants. Ironic, I know. Because some of them had to be switched off because there were problems with the permit. Therefore, French traders bought electricity from power plants in Germany, for example. If there is a lot of wind, the excess electricity is sometimes sold abroad. This happens regularly
In other words: Everything is much more complex than ânuclear power is great, the Greens are stupid.â
Please talk to someone who trades electricity for a living about this.
If this person has a lot of patience and can look past personal biases, you will quickly realize that the reality is much more complex. Please inform yourself first and then decide on a party.

But herein lies the problem: Many immigrants that seek asylum in Germany are here illigaly and have no intrest to integrate. In Germany the government pays money to all peaple not activly working the "BĂŒrgergeld". More than 60% is currently going to immigrants that are refusing to work, often for many years, even though they represent a mutch smaller part of the population. As a result taxes are rising, Schools are degrading, and the shortage of skilled workers is only becoming more severe. Illigal immigrants assulting little girls, attaking police and the public are not
deported, but are given minimum sentencing. But our left government tells us, that is is our foult, as we somehow failed to integrade them. Our borders are not secuere, we can bearly pay for the retirement of our elderly, let alone the hundreds of thousends of unemployed immigrants, we dont deport illigal immigrants and our culture is dying. I would say this is the short version of our current immigration problem.
Immigration has gone out of control. In almost all EU countries more than half of the people say that their country takes in too many asylum seekers. Mainly in Italy and Greece but the numbers are still very high in places like NL, Germany, Finland etc.

I'm convinced it's because (continental) Europeans have a much stronger sense of cultural identity, which is currently under threat from immigration and excessive globalism. The reason men are more conservative is because they tend to vote less from a position of emotion or empathy, which is a reason women vote more liberal. And then there is the constant attack on masculinity and the disdain towards the role of men in society. It's not acceptable and will garner a backlash. We're seeing it now.
Whatever platforms or media are used to get information from is far less relevant than the above points.
Boomers had their time of abuse in the system and we also got REAL tired of immigration. I voted far right and I'm glad about the results.
i'm 21 years old and voted for Wilders, twice now.

People talk about economic and sociological factors, but what about psychological ones? How do young adults go through their period of identity formation in times like this? There seems to be a divide between those that want to abandon national identities alltogether and those that double down on them.
It's simple. They can't get employed, they can't afford houses and nobody cares about them. What's there to think about?
But the psychological division is based on the socio-economic system and its weakness.
â@@_o..o_1871It really isnt. Otherwise you woukld deny that cukltural views are of any importance for people and that people are incapable of having feelings regarding cultural issues, or in other words LGBTQ and immigration are topics we talk about soely because we are bored and we are incapable of having feelings regarding one or the other.
If we are capable of having feelings on those issues, then psychological factos can be derived from those
"abandon national identities altogether" is a euphamism for "being pro-European" but I want to point out that there's no contradiction between European identity and national identity same as there is no difference between national identity and regional identity i.e. something like just because someone identifies as Bavarian doesn't mean they don't also identify as German. There are actually four levels of identities in Europe - regional, national, European, global.
No way I will ever abandon my national identity.
A European Federation is one quick way to instigate a massive surge in Facism across Western Europe lol
Maybe because they have a right to identity too, and donât want their country to be robbed?
TLDR: "We swear, we're not biased."
Also TLDR: Never addresses that immigration is an existential problem for Europe.
The single largest difference between Australian voters and the rest of the world is that in Australia, voting is compulsory. This results in a 95% voter turn out in every election, and pushes Australian politics towards the centre. There is very little difference between the left and the right here.
What punishment is there if somebody doesn't vote? In Bulgaria it's compulsory as well on paper, but a lot of people don't vote and that isn't enforceable
$50 dollar fine in the mail, at least in theory but it's not even always sent out.
It's compulsory in Belgium too, it causes the opposite, we have a very strong far-right and a very strong far-left (especially under the youth)
@@mateyp3365 That just suggests a lack of any real choice due to forcing people who have no view, knowledge or interest in politics to put a cross somewhere.

The problem is immigration. Illegal immigration specifically.
Because the problem is so mismanaged many immigrants who were rejected from asylum for understandable reasons like if they are violent or have a criminal history arenât actually deported, leaving dangerous people undocumented and desperate for money, leaving them in a situation that puts other Europeans (especially women or young people) in danger.
On the flip side the large amount of mismanagement means that there isnât anything being done to protect migrant rights either, many are trapped in Greek labour camps or are victims to ilegal practices like in Hungary where they transport them in containers without food or water for up to 24 hours, with many child immigrants ending up in human trafficking in other scenarios.
Both immigrants and native residents are victims to this problem due to the lack of mismanagement at our borders because of the VETO powers of our leaders and the blatant disregard for the rule of law due to legal loopholes.
Shutting down our borders wonât solve the problem but create new problems and lead to further isolation. The real solution is to figure out how to manage the border in a sane way and to decide who can get in and whoever is dangerous stays out.
We can only do this if all of us work together because we are all stronger together!
I don't know about the others countries but we in portugal are tired of this immigration, and thats the main reason we vote in CHEGA.
Not mentioning immigration is a criminal offence and makes me question your journalism
Are there any just right parties? You keep talkung about far and radical right but I never hear about regular right parties.
That's the conservative parties.

The reason is immigration. That's it. It's amazing how the host doesn't cite the most obvious factor behind the popularity of parties whose primary platform is immigration restrictionism. It's not even that young Europeans are more immigration restrictionist than old Europeans, that's not the case if you look at the polls, it's just that young people are less risk-averse than old people, so young Europeans are willing to take the risk of trying something different than traditional parties supported by traditional media. Of course, young Europeans are also increasingly having the experience of having to deal with violent and anti-social third world immigrants in schools, something that was much rarer for Europeans over the age of 40 when the immigrant population was much smaller.
All the other factors mentioned by the host are either minor or wrong. Europe doesn't really have much of a cultural war like the US, for the simple reason that Europe doesn't have a big right-wing religious movement like the US, these young Europeans voting for so-called far-right parties are not more religious or conservative than old Europeans, that's clear in polls, which show them supporting things like gay marriage in vast majorities, so the issue in question is really just immigration. The other thing is that because Europe has multiple parties, Europeans do not suffer from partisan brain poisoning like the US, and there are studies showing that Europeans who vote for immigration restrictionist parties do so because of the policy of immigration restrictionism, not their rhetoric. A simple way to check all this is to just look at Denmark. In Denmark, the traditional center-left and center-right parties are doing well, and the so-called far-right parties have a real but not extraordinary presence among young people. Why? Because in Denmark, the traditional center-left and center-right parties have restricted third world immigration, and continue to do so. It's simple really, if traditional centrist parties have sensible immigration policies that preserve their countries and don't import gigantic numbers of inassimilable aliens, then they will do well.
Why are Anglo countries different? That's an interesting question, my guess is that it's a mix of the fact that Anglo countries have better immigrants, which is definitely true for the US, Canada and Australia, but also just a more successful ideological campaign about the supposed virtues of multiculturalism.
colonial guilt trip
Immigrant kids arenât worse than any other kid in school. My school was filled with people of other ethnicities, but the one who got arrested for stabbing someone was white British.
They're not voting for the far right, theyre voting for Geert Wilders
Its actually amazing how little TLDR news actually informs. Their obliviousness is baffling. The comment section at least doesn't live under a rock.
Ah women, they feel less and less safe in their own countries for every passing year, the vast majority feel unsafe when walking outside after dark.. yet keeps on voting for the same parties who caused these issues to begin with. I truly love the minority of women who actually dares to walk against the current of ignorance.
Or maybe they see the underlying issues and realise this is a symptom, caused by decades of conservative economic politics. It's sad how this comment section is an echo chamber full of right wing men.
No we don't
But as a men I'm sure you are great at talking about what women think lmao
@@agapitoliriaEuropean politics, especially West-European politics have been dominated by the green left for the last 25 years. They are the ones behind the "decades of incompetent policies" you are referring to. đ
@@agapitoliria Conservative economic systems? So in countries such as Sweden where the social democrats have been the biggest party for 80 something years, and has ruled Sweden in left coalitions for the majority of time, aswell as during the "refugee crisis" of 2015? That's considered conservative?

the right & far-right parties are rising because of illegal immigration & lack of policy in that matter... it's not that hard to understand why
If it is illegal immigration it makes no sense to vota for something else... it is already illegal, i.e. the government already opposes it
Its shocking how people talking about immigration don't have guts to call It Illegal islamic Migration.
Legal or illegal, doesn't make much difference.
