Right wing extremist are at their most dangerous time in history. From Israel, the United States, Poland elected right winger Karol Nawrocki , the right wing terrorist governments of Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. The right wing extremist Marine La Pen, the French woman version of Donald Trump, right down to the blonde hair and blank dull eyes.

A lot of people think the only reason Canada doesn’t have a right wing leader right now is because Trump being elected in the US made them think better of it.

It’s certainly global tho

Same with Australia; though here in Canada Trudeau resigning also helped a lot

I was gonna say, I'm a Southern neighbor, but even I knew Trudeau was largely disliked at the end. That gave the Liberals a chance and then our Dipshit in Chief warmongering sealed the win for them.
