Advance of the extreme right, at least in Europe, continues at a firm pace. It is not something temporary, but rather it has a clear structural character and progressive forces would do well to analyze it in this way. The Orbans in Hungary, Le Pen in France, Morawiecki in Poland or Abascal in our country have come to stay. His ideology too, as well as his intention to come to power. Their characteristics as extreme right-wing populists pose a danger to our European democracy and the populism that permeates them is allowing them to obtain support in the form of votes from sectors that very recently supported left-wing or progressive parties. This phenomenon was already observed in the elections in Madrid last year, where in places like the towns previously called the “red belt”, there was a transfer towards the extreme right not only from the PP, but also from PSOE and even Podemos.
It should be remembered that this phenomenon was previously observed in France in places like Marseille and unfortunately from the left it was not analyzed in depth and with a self-critical spirit. Now we have to Costa Rica WhatsApp Number suffer its consequences. Perhaps for years we have been dodging so many bullets that in the end one will hit us square in the head. The food of the extreme right The left, whether Spanish, Catalan or Basque, should understand from now on that we will only be able to fight against this phenomenon together, united, delving into what unites us and looking for common ground in what separates us, that make us different. Perhaps we should recover the “they will not pass” that resonated in the Madrid of the civil war. Put it in every headquarters of PSOE, Podemos, PCE, Más País, ERC, Bildu or BNG, even expanding the progressives of PNV and together stop the momentum of the extreme right and the extreme right. We have no reason to feel relieved after the presidential elections in France.
On the contrary, either we reflect quickly and self-critically, or it doesn't matter if they are greyhounds or hounds, they are dogs and they are going to destroy us. It is curious that part of the potential support that reaches this growing extreme right comes from youth. Which should also call us to reflection. If we look at the few leaders we have left, the few ideologues and intellectuals who still survive, all of them are over sixty. Jeremy Corbyn, 72, Bernie Sanders, 80, or more recently Jean-Luc Mélenchon, 71. France: the crisis of the left In our country, hardly any, like José Antonio Pérez Tapias, 67, Javier Pérez Royo, 77, or Luis García Montero, 66, maintain the classic essences. Bad outlook for the future, especially taking into account that the thin red lines that prevented government pacts between the extreme right, have been blown up with the recent agreement in Castilla y León between PP and VOX.
