Hahahaha if only.
The ruling coalition is p much every right wing party that isn't (officially) racist. 2 out of hem are officially socially conservative as well.

Does Salvini and the League have a chance of forming government with new elections, even if polling at first?

this does not automatically mean new elections though, thank gently caress for parliamentary form of government. a new government can be made if a majority is found without going to new elections, and it looks at least possible that m5s and pd could find common ground.

this would be deceptively good because salvini is on the backfoot and a. people in his party have been showing signs of discontent which might explode into full blown revolt if he shows them that he got outmaneuvered out of power, b. a lot of his political clients are new and not well consolidated, appointments can be reversed, so hitting him there another good way to hit him where it hurts (if he cant show his people they get appointments and power and money and bitches if they follow him theres good reason to find a better one). c. if hes no longer the minister of the interior he cant go campaigning around on state dime and have the political police's thugs protect his rallies like he did before, so he could actually face a modicum of organized resistance, further tarnishing his reputation.

ffs the guy got his communication and pr staff consultancies at the ministries so weve been basically subsidising his campaign the whole way. if he leaves govt and a new one is formed he loses that, and he also loses control over state tvs, he can actually be toppled i think.

i know that a lot of this is unlikely, as it implies other political forces have not only the foresight to put such a plan in act but the acumen to do it effectively, but still its a heck of a lot better than dehumanizing myself and facing to fascism.

Serious question: should I just go back to my crummy low wage country and hope the inevitable global fascist takeover ignores me for being a native until someone mistakes me for LGBTQ for never having had any sort of relationship and has me murdered?

aren't you from like Portugal or something? That's white enough to be an Übermensch in the new fash order in almost every case, especially with fascism now being more popular in the Med and in Eastern Europe than in Germany (for now). Also, in some countries the fascists love the LGBTQ because conservative Muslims don't, so move to one of those if you're worried about that.

this is exactly what they want, for you to end up stuck back in the place you left. Take advantage of freedom of movement while it still exists and travel to a new place where you think you might have a better shot at accomplishing your dreams
