Talking of mosques and minarets:

The Styria FPÖ is out with a new online game called "mosque bye bye", in which you can shoot down muezzins from the minaret. When you have completed the game, it says "Styria is full of mosques with minarets ! If you don´t want that to happen: Vote FPÖ on September 26 !"

lol wtf

Tender, what does this poster mean:

The rise of the far right in Austria is troubling.

It's not troubling at all. Have you been to Austria, dude? The kids here - like 2nd graders - ride the subway to school. Could you imagine that in Chicago? And I can hold a beer in my hand while talking to customs agents. Can you imagine how much US agents would flip a sh**t if that were the case? This forum is absolutely retarded when it comes to deriving what a location is like based upon election results. Give me the strongest FPÖ bastion in Austria over Knott County, Kentucky any day of the week.

What a badass. Emigrating to Canada before Austria was even an independent country, making a couple billion, and subsequently returning and forming a party marketing itself as a student-driven, intellectual movement. If only something like a Team Stronach-Pirate Party coalition were possible.
