Same situation here in Germany, where companies are worried about attracting skilled foreign workers while right-wing extremist parties are gaining more and more votes.
It’s kind of baffling that the saner elements of these conservative parties simply don’t get that all the really smart people who tend to have disproportionately large positive impacts on their country’s economies simply won’t put up with authoritarian governments, and will straight up leave if push comes to shove. The politicians in question are evidently unable to understand the catastrophic impact that brain drain can have on a country in the medium- to long-term.
They don't care. They aren't even looking at the small picture, they are busy trying to decide which crayon to eat.
Hey, the marines would be very upset if they heard you badmouthing their favorite flavor.
