Yeah the left coalition in France is very loose. Not gonna be enough to stop the march of the far-right for long.

Denmark caused the collapse of the far right once the left adopted immigration polices most people want.

The choice is up to the left in regards to the future of Europe.

I dream of a future with really good social security nets, great climate policy, cheap housing, high taxes on the rich, and more proportional representation.

But the main issue right now is immigration. If the far right is the only one to solve that. Then people in Europe feel their hands are tied. The left is so god damn stupid.

Left wing video "There are no issues with immigration"

In the news "IS claims responsibility for knife attack"

Then goes onto what the right really mean based on his views alone.

It's not all about money. It's not about businesses getting rich and house prices going up.

The left lie and change the narrative this issue isn't "immigration under any situation" as the left try to make out it is the "immigration as is"

No one in Europe is arguing about Swedes or Germans moving into their country. No one has issues with second or third generation Australian gangs.

Immigration when done well is good. But the biggest issue in Europe is immigration both legal and illegal.

Fascist? No.

There is certainly a popular reactionary swing away from social liberalism and towards national conservatism however.

Buddy, national conservatism is the core component of fascism in a declining capitalist country, and inevitable under "social" liberalism.

[–] Iceblade02 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

The core component of fascism is authoritarianism with totalitarian goals. Many nationalist movements throughout history have not been fascist in nature, and many non-fascists have embraced nationalist values without becoming fascists.

Also, claiming that a rise of fascism is inevitable under social liberalism is speculation at best.
