It's wild to me how America, UK, and Canada are dealing with these idiotic right wing extremists or fans. It did not go well in the states, is still not going well, but people in other countries are all agreeing that yeah now is the time to be loud, racist, shitholes who make life worse for everyone with their stupidity????? What the fuuuck
Step 1) blame everyone else for everything that's wrong. Step 2) promise all the good things if only people vote for you. If they are actually gullible enough to do that we come to step 3) grab all the wealth you can and shift it to your cronies, smash anything too heavy to carry off and leave the opposition in a smouldering ruin that you can then again blame and berate the next government for.

And you'd think at the latest when the Brexit happens and totally fucked up logistics, industry and the already ailing healthcare in the UK, the right-wing voters might have realized "Oh wait, maybe the people we've been voting for us have been lying and it was rather obvious with how they didn't want to be associated with the shit they made us vote for after it actually worked out and they won the vote". Nope. They're proud of it. All the mean mean evil EU now being mean to lil' ol' England out of pure spite. Aye.
(to be fair we already did that a long time ago when we banished them to a damp, sad and depressing island in the north sea)
I heard on the radio this morning the government singing their own praises after reintroducing pint size bottles of wine. A "Brexit benefit". This is after 99% of those surveyed said they wanted metric sizes. 99%!
Who is that wine for? Ants?
Old people who for some reason cannot let go of a system of measures that needs to DIE
The right wing voters won't be happy until everything burns down so they can institute their shitty boring ass cishet white only vision of society.
All of Europe, and a bunch of other places, are swinging to the right. It's not an Anglosphere thing, you just read english-speaking news more.
Funny enough, the UK is in the process of swinging back leftwards again at the moment. Roll on the 2024 general election.
The Netherlands just voted in our own right-wing extremist, Geert Wilders. 😭
You know how the right-wing nutjobs have been frothing about a "new world order" conspiracy theory for a long time now? You know, the one about a secretive multinational cabal plotting to take over the entire world?
Yeah... it turns out even that was projection, too.
