> There is a new challenger on the Italian right. Since being founded in February this year, Futuro Nazionale (National Future), led by former general Roberto Vannacci, has risen sharply in opinion polls, reaching around 7 per cent support and overtaking Forza Italia for the first time in a poll at the end of August. This came just as the party published its electoral programme. While most attention has focused on its demand to halt and reverse migration, the document does something more than this: it seeks to specify who may become Italian, how long admission to the nation should take and when it may be undone. The programme presents descent as the natural and secure route to membership. Other applicants would have to wait twenty years, demonstrate C1-level Italian through written and oral examinations, maintain a clean criminal record and sign a declaration of assimilation to Greek, Roman and Christian civilisation.

Anyway, if Italians are returning to tradition, hopefully the English do the same and realize the errors of their ways. Maybe we can get them back in communion with the church Jesus founded.

> Sanseitō is an ultraconservative, right-wing populist political party in Japan. It is on the far-right of the political spectrum. The party was founded in 2020 by Sohei Kamiya, the current secretary general of the party, and won a seat in the 2022 House of Councillors election, also becoming an official political party by winning more than 2% of the vote in the election. Sanseitō gained international media attention during the 2022 House of Councillors election due to Kamiya's antisemitic rhetoric during public appearances and campaign rallies. In the 2024 general election, the party won 3 seats. In the 2025 House of Councillors election, the party won more than 14 seats and came in third in the national popular vote. According to the party's leader Kamiya, it is the Japanese equivalent of Trumpism in the United States.

Anyway, it doesn’t really matter, since Japan is de-facto a one party state since, it’s technically not a one party state because it’s a democracy, but the Liberal Democratic Party always wins so it’s like…
The Liberal Democratic Party is conservative, but I don’t think any reasonable person would look to Japan of all places for exciting developments in politics.

No I just got the names mixed up because I don’t speak Japanese, but instead of editing my comment I decided to leave it because it’s funny that I got the party you mentioned mixed up with a party that’s actually more popular, yet still one of the smallest parties in Japan.

This is just bait at this point. I'm not even balls deep into jap politics and even I know takaichi has already done plenty to appeal to the far right like her cabinet visiting the yasakuni shrine and pushing to amend the constitution to establish a formal military. I guess these aren't exciting to a moron though

She’s a member of the Liberal Democratic Party. They win every election, it literally doesn’t mean anything that she won. They always win.

It’s like if somebody said that China is turning to the left because Xi Jinping won an election and he was pandering to communists. It doesn’t mean anything lol

Like literally what does Japan have in common with Italy culturally? Japan has like one Catholic university and there are 5 Japanese tourists in the Vatican right now?

Tbh, the ironic thing about learning Chinese is Chinese isn’t related to Japanese, but if you can read Chinese, you can read every other word in Japanese and have no idea how to pronounce it correctly. So that’s gonna be fun.

I feel like with Kanji if I took Japanese I’d get a little taste of Chinese, but I thought about it, and I feel like I just wanted to go all in, you know?

Yes, let’s replace the inept “social democrat” types with stridently inept and proudly ignorant right wingers. It’s almost as if choosing someone moderate and capable isn’t a choice.

Honestly, I’ve thought about it. I’d really like to go back to somebody boring like Obama. I don’t want politicians trying to be the next revolutionary, I just want somebody who will do whatever in the Middle East, we’re America, it comes with the deal, keep everything stable at home, and then we can just not worry about stuff.

I don’t know why, but we need to bomb the Middle East for a hundred years. Nobody ever told me what the plan is, it’s just necessary, somehow. Don’t really know. The point is, I just want everything to go back to normal, we can bicker about healthcare or whatever, I don’t want to go outside and see flags everywhere that aren’t American flags. Trump supporters and anti Trump supporters have a million different flags these days. I just want to see the flags of actual countries from now on, and counties that still exist not the racist ones that lost existential wars.
