  • There are and have always been bizarre political currents in europe (like the extreme left, and the revolutionary left bombing stuff in the eighties just as an axample), but it’s not like the USA where everything catches fire at once, we’re 27+ countries and they all pull in different ways, so far right expansion is something not to take lightly, but it will not be a walk in the park subverting the EU (fascists tend to need a sort of quick power grab) even if it can happen in distinct countries.

    I also believe the Kremlin is behind lots of those problems, amplifying them and sponsoring far right parties. And it seems those days will come to an end or at least be correctly countered and not welcomed with open arms like in the last 20-30+ years.

    So I’m quite optimistic for the long haul, we got some 5-10 turbulent years ahead but I’m confident we’ll survive mostly.
