Chuck DarwinHow did the far right win in Austria? To understand, look to its global networks "We will kick upwards and clamp down on those who don’t mean well for us”, said <a href="https://c.im/tags/Herbert" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Herbert</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Kickl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kickl</a> in May 2023. Under Kickl’s leadership, the Austrian Freedom party ( <a href="https://c.im/tags/FP%C3%96" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FPÖ</a> ) has scored its biggest election victory since it was founded in 1956 by <a href="https://c.im/tags/Anton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Anton</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Reinthaller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Reinthaller</a>, an Austrian Nazi who had served as a lieutenant general in the SS. Not only is the FPÖ now more popular than ever, it is also at the height of its radicalism.The FPÖ’s victory in Sunday’s national elections is being celebrated by far-right movements and influencers across Europe. No wonder: it demonstrates how successful they have been at normalising and internationalising their extreme ideologies, conspiracy myths and policy proposals.Many of the FPÖ’s ideas have been inspired by <a href="https://c.im/tags/Generation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Generation</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Identity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Identity</a>, a pan-European white nativist movement that has its roots in France and is particularly strong in Austria. In a post-election livestream to his followers, the movement’s Austrian leader, <a href="https://c.im/tags/Martin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Martin</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Sellner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sellner</a>, celebrated the FPÖ win as “a dream result” . He has been one of the most influential proponents of the term “<a href="https://c.im/tags/remigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#remigration</a>” (the policy of mass deportation of people with a migration background), which had its first spike on social media following a 2014 extreme-right meet-up in France.Ten years later, the FPÖ is far from the only far-right political party that has embraced the concept. Germany’s <a href="https://c.im/tags/AfD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AfD</a> party used “remigration” as part of its campaigns for regional elections in Saxony and Thuringia on 1 September, -- and <a href="https://c.im/tags/Donald" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Donald</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> recently called for “remigration” in a post about “illegal migrants” on X. Even though Sellner communicated with and received a donation from the @Christchurch <a href="https://c.im/tags/shooter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#shooter</a> who later killed 51 people in two consecutive mosque attacks in New Zealand in 2019, Kickl has since described the identitarian movement as “a project worthy of support”, which should be viewed as an “NGO from the right”.A year before the Christchurch attack, Sellner wrote to me in a direct message on Twitter: “I don’t think that my videos and speeches incite violence. The anger is there in any case and I think it has its material basis.”<a href="https://c.im/tags/Immigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Immigration</a> is only one of the FPÖ’s controversial campaign topics. <a href="https://c.im/tags/Covid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Covid</a> conspiracy myths, <a href="https://c.im/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#climate</a> change denial, <a href="https://c.im/tags/anti" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#anti</a>-<a href="https://c.im/tags/feminism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#feminism</a> and <a href="https://c.im/tags/anti" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#anti</a>-<a href="https://c.im/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LGBTQ</a>+ discourse are other features of the party’s branding. The FPÖ member of parliament <a href="https://c.im/tags/Michael" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Michael</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Gruber" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gruber</a> recently shared an election campaign video on Instagram that showed him throwing a rainbow flag in a bin with the tagline “Cleaning up for Austria”.With Kickl using dog whistles such as “climate communism” and “WHO dictatorship”, the FPÖ has been able to expand its support base among conspiracy theorists and Covid deniers. What does Kickl mean by kicking upwards, for example? He promised to become an FPÖ chancellor “who won’t bow down to the EU, Nato and the WHO”. In a new year’s speech he spoke ofhis long “wanted list”, which includes centrist politicians whom he refers to as “politicians of the system” (<a href="https://c.im/tags/Systempolitiker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Systempolitiker</a> ) and whom he accuses of “treason against the people” (<a href="https://c.im/tags/Volksverrat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Volksverrat</a> ) – two terms known for their use by <a href="https://c.im/tags/Adolf" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Adolf</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Hitler" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hitler</a>.A key to FPÖ’s success has been the growing landscape of alternative, hyper-biased and conspiratorial news outlets that have formed around the party and its sympathisers. In the run-up to the election, a series of false claims spread in a chain reaction across these alternative media websites and social media channels such as Telegram. Reports, for example, were circulated claiming that the “deep state” wanted to steal the FPÖ’s victory or that centrist parties were planning to reintroduce mandatory vaccinations after the elections. <a href="https://c.im/tags/AUF1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AUF1</a>, a particularly influential new rightwing channel, has aired ideas of “vaccine mass extermination” and a “deadly transhumanist agenda”. The channel was the first outlet to feature an appearance by Kickl on Sunday night after the election victory.The FPÖ’s historic victory not only poses a risk to Austria’s minorities, independent media outlets, scientific community and democratic institutions, -- it also has the potential to significantly strengthen the far right in Europe and internationally. <a href="https://c.im/tags/Alice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Alice</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Weidel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Weidel</a> of the German AfD, <a href="https://c.im/tags/Marine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Marine</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Le" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Le</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Pen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pen</a> of the French National Rally and <a href="https://c.im/tags/Geert" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Geert</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Wilders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Wilders</a> of the Dutch Freedom party all enthusiastically congratulated the FPÖ. “The Netherlands, Hungary, Belgium, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Sweden, France, Spain, Czech Republic and today Austria! We are winning! Times are changing,” commented Wilders on X.<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/sep/30/austria-far-right-win-global-election-freedom-party?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/sep/30/austria-far-right-win-global-election-freedom-party?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other</a>
