France has this weird addiction to conservative assholes. They go on a bender for few years, then they are all "Holy gently caress I can't believe I got that messed up, never again" and its all red flags and guillotines and new Republics. Are there any Bonapartes or Bourbons left? They might have a shot again.

Serious question. I am Portuguese and am currently working in the Netherlands. I really don't want to go back home since I cannot possibly live making a third of what I am making right now (medical bills) and I work in biomed, which has very little employment in Portugal. Yet I am worried about the potential rise of fascism in Europe. What should I do?

Speaking of I'm someone who's an EU migrant in Britain and just lost my job for a biotech company. Not sure what I'll do, employers right now are understandably leery of employing EU migrants in Britain. Am thinking about Singapore, my girlfriend lives in Malaysia so... But then again it's not that easy to leave the place you've spent a better part of the last decade in, and I have very little work experience in practice.

If you are planning to start a family and settle down, it's kinda an important consideration. Who the gently caress knows what the world is gonna look like in 20 years, I mean, people laughed at Trump only 4 years ago (and now nobody is laughing ). Wherever fascism takes hold, its gonna run everything into the ground and make everyone miserable.
