That color switch got me sweating for a second!
Well it's still scary enough.
I just hope that these ppl won't go federal/national. We might have a similar problem now in The Netherlands, expecially with new elections coming in November, after the fall of Rutte.
The Farmers party (less right-winged then AFD imo), are locally very strong.
It appears, many ppl are just afraid of the cost of living, energy prices changes etc ; basically afraid they can't live their normal lives. It's becoming a perfect feeding ground for stupid ( extreme) rhetoric.
So let's just keep our hopes up for some enlightened votes and politicians. But I'm wary.
