AfD is in the awkward position of having now a mix of outright white supremacists, disgruntled socalists, conservatives and anything in between who are (understandingly) upset with current government in Germany.


That hodgepodge of opinions and values is kind of a novelty in german political landscape. The only unifiyng thing that I could recount for the current AfD is that they are upset of german current governance.
The pact they have made is fragile and lose, any party internal conflict can be quite fatal for them.

This gives a huge opportunity for foreign state actors be it China, Usa, Russia to consilidate a dominant block inside the party which when their inevitiable election success in autunm 2024 arrives will ensure that the foreign state actor who manipulated the AfD the best will have a extremely powerful tool inside the germany and thus europe.


Sadly US State Department has done a better job in manipulating than Zhongnanhai in recent years so I am not optimistic about the pro-China block of AfD winning the power struggle, they even may get purged.


Russia is preoccupied with holding themselves together, so it will boil down to a Sino-Us dualism again.
Yeah, this is what tend to happen to popular opposition like that. They seem genuinely open to alternatives until an internal purge happen by the time they are elected. I caution placing too much optimism in these kinds of party.

said the Taiwanese government also wanted to put a military attache in Taipei’s de facto embassy in Canberra. Taiwan already does this in countries including the US, Japan, India and the Philippines, which all have “One China” policies that officially recognise Beijing while maintaining informal ties with Taipei.
More than six in 10 Australians (64 per cent) see the prospect of a military conflict between the US and China over Taiwan as a critical threat,

In the event of a Chinese invasion, more than three-quarters (76 per cent) support “imposing economic and diplomatic sanctions on China”, 64 per cent support “Australia sending arms and military supplies to the Taiwanese government”, and 61 per cent support “using the Australian navy to help prevent China from imposing a blockade around Taiwan”.

MSM still can't deal with the fact that their woke Little Mermaid movie did poorly in China. Now, they tried to blame Chinese as racism. However, many other movies with black as the main protagonists have done well in China. Stop playing victim hood card as China has nothing to do with colonialism and slavery.

As though the US and the West are not choke-full of racists.

Interesting fact considering that more Middle East oil-producing nations now lean on China and how dominant China's solar energy industry is in the world:

Mulan also tanked in China. This must mean Chinese are racist against Chinese.
