It’s been reported that in the German elections, a far right party has made ‘significant gains’.

In the UK (at least before the scandals) Reform UK seems to have had a significant boost and has even surpassed the right-wing Conservative Party in some polls/predictions.

Even France, one or two years ago, was threatened with a far-right government due to the French far right party gaining a lot of support.

It feels like in the last few years, the far-right has exceeded itself and had a surge in popularity. Is this the case? And if so, wtf is fuelling it?

    Yet you use the same techniques you complain and cherry pick the data. Sure the share of overall wealth is down but the share still goes further due to technological advancements. Also the world doesn’t end at US borders FYI

      I’m not using the same techniques. I am using the data sources that you claim are infallible.

      Can I use my share of the wealth to buy a presidency and a walk into the white house unelected and steal from the country?? Or do I need $1 trillion to do that? You understand what citizens united is right? The bottom 50% of this country has less political influence than one person.
