#populists

What a grubby, self-serving, and deliberately divisive propagandist Barnaby Joyce is. His anti-#ClimateAction agenda ultimately serves short-term gain for a select few, at the expense of the most-of-us, future generations, and planetary #ecology.
Barnaby Joyce reminds of me of a used car salesman. He reassures the gullable, but ultimately sells lemons. Like all deceptive #populists he would have you believe that accelerating fossil-fuel use will deliver #EnergySecurity. It won't, #ClimateDenial aside. Joyce is a dangerous fool, cast in the same mould as that other orange-tinged dangerous fool. Seems, orange, means, as in nature - beware - toxic. #AusPol

#geertwilders found to have chickened out of TV election debates using made-up threats to his life.

#populists want to talk all day, but only when they can spew their fact-free fantasies uninterrupted.
Internal #pvv messaging now shows how scared #wilders was of debates on equal terms with other parties.

Winning the election in 2024, his government collapsed in total chaos within a year.

#thenetherlands learnt its lesson regarding #populism the hard way. I urge other countries to take note.
