The only phase I'd take out or rephrase is the "far right drives economy off a cliff", like, I'm pretty sure you can't say meloni is any more of a neoliberal than draghi before her, and she's just continuing to carry out his and the EU's economic plan anyways, and regarding Poland from what I understand the period where PiS was in power was noticeably better economically than the centrist liberals before them just because they weren't as committed to neoliberalism, to the point that a lot of poles reluctance to vote the liberals back despite PiS's rollback of LGBT rights and, in EU-speak, "democratic backsliding" was that the liberals would take away a subsidy system that PiS implemented that helped a lot of people.
