Pulitzer worthy.

Er ist wieder da

Not sure if it's true but I heard she's a lesbian married to a woman from Sri Lanka (or some other country that's not exactly known for their arian people). How the voters don't see the contradiction is anyone's wonder but then again, we've learned that you can't be the brightest kid if you are voting for them so...

True, and she also lives in Switzerland not in Germany.

The same sex married, child adopting, immigrant marrying women, who is against all of the above mentioned leading the party of the same. Only in 2026

You know the shadow has been edited in, right?

I wonder how much time elapsed between the idea and actually getting the shot lined up. I'm imagining it taking forever, but I think most photojournalists these days have really fast cameras.

If anyone who knows camera stuff wants to hazard a guess on how difficult a shot this is, I'd love to hear it.

It is a fitting picture, but yeah, the lighting is all wrong for it to be real

a woman from Sri Lanka (or some other country that's not exactly known for their arian people)

You might be surprised.

("Aryan" didn't originally mean what the Nazis wanted it to mean. Like the swastika and a bunch of other stuff, it was stolen and twisted to suit their purposes.)

She gives AfD voters a shield to do bigoted things, because well their lead is a lesbian so how can they be bigoted? /s

It also improves the optics of the party and makes it look "normal" so people who aren't that far right doesn't feel they are doing something bad for supporting AfD.

Ah right... the old "I have a black/gay friend, I can't be racist/homophobic" trick... As I said, their voters are not known for being the sharpest tools in the shed.

OMG it's a metropolico stache!

It's true but it doesn't matter. One of the main promises of the far-right is to free people from the shackles of "reason" and "logic."
Otherwise, how would they vote for a party that's going to make their lives worse in every aspect? It's not a bug, it's a feature.
I think we all can imagine how lesbians will fare after the 4th Reich that the far right is is yearning for has been installed.

I'm reminded of how Milo Yiannaopoulus not only played the "I'm Gay, I can't be bad." card, but was Jewish or Catholic depending on which made him look better at the time.

You don't have to be a dumbass to be racially bigoted and full of contradictions. My mother is a christian who gave me shit for telling a (harmless) joke involving Jesus years ago. Then she voted for she shit-bag three times. Fuck her.

It's very difficult, that is why the shot isn't real but edited.

The better the healthcare, the greater the Führer.

Or what's your thinking here?

Sorry to break it to you but eh... you're describing someone who's not among the brightest. First time, I can understand. Second time, a bit less. But third? Yeah, you need to be a "special kind" of bigoted racist to vote for him. And I say special to not say dumb as a rock.

How do you figure?

and shes also FOREIGNER.

also being a woman, not ugly helps too luring people.

The shadow at the ear and somebody posted the original in the thread.

I dont know under what rock you live but i have been reading about journalist who are warning about this group for multiple years now here on lemmy.

There got a significant boon after getting backed by Elon Musk

Oh yeah I see what you mean. Thanks!

I feel like I used to be better at picking this stuff out. Didn't used to have to ask as much as I do now. Getting old sucks.

Das est aber zeemlech ohnsereööös!

I was wrong! Sri Lanka is majority Sinhalese not Tamil. Still, the situation is quote different from Brahmin Neo-Nazis in Delhi

Sri Lanka is not part of the area you're thinking of. South Indians and Sri Lankans have a completely different language family and ethnicity to North Indians.

Doesn't matter, the Roma are an Aryan people and were declared non-Aryan by the Nazis. Because the racist idea of Aryan has nothing to do with the correct scientific use of the word.

Yeah i have never seen a press event where there was a giant light installed in the middle of the crowd pointing at the speaker. Would have been a cool picture though.

I'd guess not difficult at all. Three minutes tops in Photoshop for a reasonably experienced user.

And yes, it's fake.

I was taught that all humans are alike, that if you scind up society in better and less better humans you get nazism.

But here we are, with mentally ill leaders (like elon, musk, trump, ...) and mentally "challenged" (you know what I mean) hateful people cheering them on...

I personally need more adjectives, for the hoarding egomaniac overlords, but also for the hateful people "at the bottom" that'll turn on women, gays, foreigners, trans people, at the drop of a hat while simultaneously cry nobody helps them.

Is it just people without empathy?

Edit I wrote musk instead of putin, elon was already there, I was tired I guess

With the perfect timing it could be from a flash from another photographer

But very unlikely

Yea, someone posted the original elsewhere in the thread. Little embarrassed because the more I look at it, now that it's been pointed out, the more obviously fake it looks. sometimes they slip under the radar though, and this one did for me.

she knows not to eat where you shit, she will be safe and sound once the AFD fanatics come for her head eventually.

Also shes blonde not brunette

Imo attention like this only helps her cause.

lol there's a name I haven't heard in a while. I hope its because he's become irrelevant, not because I've managed to shut that part of the world out of my life.

Both are fine to me though.

As others mentioned, it's fake
It's also really obvious, for such a shadow to be cast, she'd also have to be clearly lit from that direction, but is lit from above, not below.
And also the microphone arm is perfectly straight across her face, even though we're not looking from the same direction as the shadow is cast, so the straight line should be deformed by the shape of her face.

It's funny, and a nice reference to older movies where they did this to mock Hitler, but just be honest that it's photoshopped: ).

The right believes in unequality.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit:

There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

― Frank Wilhoit

It is just million times more relevant for fascism, and some more moderate conservatives try their best to not be hypocrites. Fascists however flex their status with public hypocrisy. Or think the people who expose their secret hypocrisy are the real bad people, who are trying to tarnish their right to be remembered as perfect human beings by historians.

Basil Fawlty's new wife? :)

They'd have to use a flash at a strategic angle, which seems unlikely.

He was deported by ICE a few days back lol

I love spreading misinformation. Thanks random social media influencer

Map from the article I linked:

Remind me again what that mostly-burgundy (for Sinhala-Dhivehi language group) island at the bottom right is?

So, my takeaway is that all of those Hitler photos and videos were doctored? Thanks AI! /s

It coulda been timed with another photographer’s flash…but that’s pretty much the only way it would happen. Yes, I know it’s ‘shopped. Just offering the hypothetical.

Something I've personally heard - it's wrong only when men do it because it's disgusting to (conservative) men. When women do it it's sexy
