Survey data from 14 countries, researchers found individuals dissatisfied with their lives are more likely to hold negative views on immigration and distrust political institutions.
“I am unhappy with _____.”
“Hi, I’m popular right wing person. Are you unhappy? Whatever it is, it’s their fault. And if you elect me, they won’t ever hurt you again.”
It’s amazing how hard it is to combat this.
Now do a study of the link between social media use and life dissatisfaction.
That has already been done numerous times and yes, it does lead to less satisfaction.
I know that I’m dissatisfied with the proliferation of both left and right wing extremism, but the right wing variety does present much more immediate threats.
It’s funny (not ha ha funny) how people don’t learn from history. There was a surge in right-wing populist sentiment in the 1930s and we all know how it ended. Having said that I understand why people lean right. Progressive governments made the normal people’s lives hard - forcing political correctness, ignoring illegal immigration and the issues caused by it, allowing petty crime go unpunished and so on. People are just tired literally fighting for their lives and are voting for populist parties that promise the good old days to return.

Ah yes, all those people literally fighting not to die from political correctness.
It’s interesting how people nitpick on least important things to ridicule valid argument. I was referring to ignoring crime just because the offender was the minority. But since you brought PC to the light, cancel culture has made so many good things to the people…
ignoring crime just because the offender was the minority
Sorry, I think you misspelled “rich”?
Nah, better to sacrifice a twenty year old to weinstein every year, cancel culture would make me have to think about my words before I say them
Which progressive government, specifically, made normal people’s lives hard? Was it the recent long-ruling center-right governments in France, Germany, and the UK? Are Italy and Poland too “politically correct” for whoever “normal people” are? Italy is famous for short-lived governments but Silvio Burlusconi was Prime Minister the longest and you could use just clips of him and make a solid training video called “Identifying sexual harassment.”
And maybe cite some statistics on crime. Europe might be the safest place in the world.
ignoring illegal immigration and the issues caused by it
They don’t ignore it, they encourage it to help divide the people, Engels wrote how the bourgeoisie do this in The Condition of the Working Class in England, so it’s been going on since 1845 at least.
