Is it just me, or does The Guardian—nominally a centre-left newspaper—seem to be promoting doomsday narratives predicting fascist triumphs in the face of weak/incompetent centre-left leadership? Like, everywhere? They tried to do it in the UK wrt. Reform, they did it in France, they're talking down Biden and talking up Republican-backed calls for him to step down in favour of any other presidential candidate at short notice (who?).

Has The Guardian finally flipped and turned quietly pro-fash?

I don't know if it's Guardian specifically, but there are a weirdly large number of outlets (including the Guardian) claiming that the far right have taken over the european parliament.

The actual results show the number of far right MEPs has barely changed, but no one is reporting this for some reason.
