and then people ask me, an Italian, why I want to leave this country asap

Unfortunately, the places where you can go are an ever-decreasing list. Some Nordic countries, a few EU ones, that's about it. Fascism is growing into a majority in literally the rest of the world.

I also have a Swedish citizenship so I always thought of going there but now they also have a right government. the list is getting thinner. Also my job doesn't have that many good places I can ask a transfer too. too bad.

Not really

It certainly is in Europe and is only going to get worse as resource wars intensify in Africa more will flee to Europe pushing the public to the right as their resources are spread thinner and thinner.

The USA and Canada are both heading this way too. Here in Canada the new leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, Pierre Poilievre, had been courting the far right, marching with their protests, being photographed with neo-Nazis and dropping constant dogwhistles. Polls show the Conservatives well in the lead, for the first time in a long while. People love their fascism, it seems.

Fascism is not growing anywhere. But a lot of "lefties" behave like fascists for sure, so people turn away from anything that smells left.

On the other hand, modern definition of left includes authorisation ideologies and regimes, so no wonder that happens.

This comment is making it very hard to follow my personal lemmy rule which states that I should not just comment 'you are a fucking idiot'.

We ought to ask the mod of this sub to just ban people like him on site and to stop giving hate speech a platform. That's what we really ought to do

Getting too ban-happy is one of the reasons people hated powermods on Reddit. I don’t think we should repeat that here.

That guy just expressed an opinion (which I completely disagree with) and isn’t actively offending anyone, just downvote and move on.

The way italy is going, they're trying to be mussolini all over again.
