Who is this “law of Effect” proposed that behaviors followed by satisfying consequences are more likely to be repeated, while those followed by discomfort are less likely. This became a cornerstone of behaviorism.

Originally for gamers, BLANK 150 million+ monthly users now use its servers for public, X-like chats. It’s less microblogging-focused but competes for real-time interaction.
Discord
2023 microblogging feature lets writers share short posts alongside newsletters. With over 3 million paid subscribers on the platform, Notes rivals X for thoughtful, creator-driven content.
SUBSTACK
Founded in 2016, BLANK champions uncensored speech and has a small but dedicated user base (under 1 million). Its X-like interface attracts far-right users banned elsewhere.
GAB
Launched in 2022 by Trump Media & Technology Group, it targets conservative users with a free-speech stance. It has about 5 million users and mirrors X’s format, appealing to a niche right-wing audience.

Biniam GIRMAY
Role: Leader of the Freedom Party of Austria (FPÖ).
Why Leading?: Kickl led FPÖ to 28.9% in the September 2024 election, the first far-right national win in Austria since WWII. His “Fortress Austria” vision pushes remigration and Euroskepticism, though coalition talks remain tricky.
HERBERT KICKL
League (Lega) leader and Deputy PM under Meloni. Once a dominant force (17% in 2018), his influence has waned, but he remains a vocal anti-migrant figure in the ID group.
MATTEO SALVINI
Vox leader, whose party doubled seats to 52 in 2019. Polling third, Vox pushes Spanish unity and anti-immigrant policies, eyeing coalition power.
