New Greek elections

[Martean]

It looks like Papandreou's new party name will be "Movement of Democratic Socialists" or KIDISO, for short.

Papandreou obviously knows that true champs have three syllables in their name - not two like those puny losers from PASOK and DIMAR.

Actually, PASOK has three syllabes xD

Πανελλήνιο Σοσιαλιστικό Κίνημα, Panhellenic Socialist Movement

But you pronounce it "PA-SOK"

[CTALNH]

They will enter the parliament... not like ANEL or PASOK

Still, they refuse to do antything

True but I am not about to vote some damned opportunists like syriza no matter how much I dislike kke.

[Commonwealth of Hank the Cat]

Please tell me, on the Poll, the 62 people who voted for Golden Dawn are being sarcastic.

Please.

[Olerand]

But I thought they were "flower-power neo-nazis", neo-nazis that, like Le-pen in France, have watered down their programme, although their ideals remain the same, they don't say it outloud.

Anyway, this far-right surge in Greece isn't new, right? I think you had the LAOS party some years ago, too

You just described LAOS.

National conservatives and the radical right aren't fascism and Nazism and the far-right. Amalgamating the two only leads to confusion when the actual far-right, like Golden Dawn, arises.

Though their pricks nontheless

Yeah, I know, I don't think Tsipras even counts them as allies, or that they will support him as president. He hopes to get 151 MPs at least.

Well, the KKE refuses to ally with anyone xD

[Vestr-Norig]

How come so many here supports the Golden Dawn? Surely there aren't that many national socialist here?

Being relatively unfamiliar with Greek politics, I wonder if there are parties in Greece deeply rooted in the rural parts of Greece, farmer's parties or something alike? As of now I would support the Coalition of the Radical Left, possibly based on ignorance, but they seem to me to be the better alternative.

Lots of puppets? I can't think of any other explanation?

[Xianghai]

Syriza because they're the only credible party that isn't insane (KKE, Golden Dawn, etc) or extremely fiscally right wing and infavour of harsh austerity.

Pretty much this.

No to austerity, no to racism, no to neo-liberalism. I can get behind all of that.

They're not very popular though. There's also the hunters party:

They're going to fail. And I am positive they know this too. Why launch this misadventure in the first place is my question.

[Sol Nascente]

I hope GD get's second place and after a while of Syriza failure governmency GD will get to power and restaure Greece national pride.

Would you know where the other 62 of you on here are by any chance?

National pride..... is not normally my number one concern when voting. Or even my number 10. I'd prefer national humility.

[Baltenstein]

Yes I will be very proud when they turn my country into a poor man's Nazi Germany. Not.

Thankfully, that day will never come.

[The Leodensian Republic]

Ever heard of the horseshoe theory?

Said the dude that mistook my for a muslim....

Enjoy your ad hominems, kiddo.

The Democratic Regional Union do sound relatively interesting, yet, their support is staggering low, and the information I am able to find about them is as narrow as their number of supporters.

More people are voting for GD so that day might come sooner than you think.

Can you vote with puppet nations? That would be a dreadful thing to be able to do, seeing as it so easily could corrupt polls such as this.

Actually, their support has almost halfed sinced 2012. The Endsieg has to wait.

Bah, they don't need numbers because they're... what's the Greek term for "Übermensch"?

Would a socialist or communist Greece strengthen other anti-capitalist parties across Europe (or even around Earth)?

The pools show otherwise.
I'm on phone can't give you links but the most of what I saw give them more than 10%

I long for the day when NS polls actually reflect national (and international) opinions

And if you mean other polls, looks at their margins of error.
