    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.

      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.

          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.
