It's sad, but predictable. Here's to hoping for strong antifascist resistance on the ground as the EU itself teeters down the fascist pipeline.
Antifa will do absolutely nothing. Either these countries start taxing the rich and providing basic needs for their population or the right will rise.
That wouldn't be enough, sadly. Anti-immigrant rhetoric is already supremely high, literal Nazism is on the rise.
Because the lower class cannot afford housing and food anymore. Most of us are likely not in the same situation as those people. We can still get by but those people are stating to go in the red. They just want to work 9-5 and afford their basic needs. Which they now cannot do anymore. And they need something to blame. Government abusing housing as an investment tool? Quick, blame immigrants for the housing shortage. etc.
Luckily Fascismo inc always offers a convenient black sheep.
Not only the EU. Bigotry, fascism and in general all types of extremism ( on both left and right ) are on the rise on the world stage. Its very sad but very predictable..
Genuine question, where are the extreme left rising? I haven't seen any but that might be the algorithms/my news sources talking.
Maybe referring to china's treatment of minorities? Though usually when people say "extreme left" they are referring to scary groups like public transit advocates.
Where is the extreme left rising? Asking for a friend who needs extrication
Well, i include extreme left because a centre left barely exists anymore on the political field. They are by far the minority, but they exists and they are absorbing the central left
It's a good thing that the left seems to be rising in the Global South, but fascism in the Global North is scary, yed.
