Next: Europe loses the fight and submits to the coalition of authoritarian regimes.
Those swiss baboushkas will be writing complaints from their gulag cells in broken Russian or Chinese.
Nice job. When conquered by the authoritarian regimes, we are going to lose the environment much quicker while losing our freedom, democracy and human rights too.
- pjmlp 3y agoNo need for conquering, I am appaled that in the recent Portuguese elections, my fellow citzens decided that the best way to use their voting rights, was to do a protest vote on the extreme right parties, briging them to the highest number on parliament since the dictorship ended. Two months away of celebrating the return of freedom to the country, the end of colonial war, and the secret state police doing whatever they felt like.
- neoromantique 3y agoOfftopic: How serious of a worry is it? I'm considering moving to Portugal next year to be further away from Russian border, from outside it looks like fairly quiet and stable-ish place.
- pjmlp 3y agoNot sure on how it will evolve, right now the parliament is mostly composed by right parties, and the moderated right party alliances (which won), can hardly do anything without the votes from extreme right parties or the other major party theh socialists (moderated left). So it depends pretty much how they will do their goverment deals with other parties, as means to get their proposals approved. From 230 seats, 58 belong to the extreme right, up from 20 in 2022. There is unfortunely a trend there, and even if we are quite cool on these left/right matters at the population level, it suffices that the new laws aren't that cool any longer.
- neoromantique 3y agoThanks, I'll try to familiarize with it more(As in, what it would mean for me on a practical level).
