sniff check request (possibly fash-aligned youtube channel and media production group)

The Algorithm suggested their "America is not Europe" video to me, and I am not about to give them views. Instead, having looked at the about page linked above and the webpage of the organization linked to on said about page, I have concerns due to how... emphatic they are about being European. Here's the about page for the organization.

Of note, their writing guidelines are reminding me of Umberto Eco's "Fourteen Ways of Looking at a Blackshirt" - specifically from that list points 4, 6, 7, 13, and 14. I mean, for fuck's sake, this "Romulus Europe" group says they want articles between 800 and 1,200 words with "no pretentious writing" and I dunno about you but that seems to run headlong into points 4 and 14 all on its own.

@LexYeen Uh... I found their Twitter and it took a really long time to find them starting to show their true colors about immigration and such, but... yeah, they're not outright fascist, but they're not the good guys. I see articles arguing for green policies and secular humanism, but a promising-at-first article about how Denmark gets social democracy "right" spends a suspicious length of time talking up immigration control and talking down Marxism. I get the impression they're trying to be Reasonable Conservatives or Sensible Neoliberals at best. Not ready to nuke them, but definitely don't see anything there worth reading.
