Take a breath and read the comment more carefully. One example:

> if this continues long enough, the far right will come into power, and we all know how well that tends to end

You seem to be in agreement and you're reading things which aren't there.

Brexit proves you wrong.

And so does practically any poll in any EU country, as well as many non-EU countries where people are desperate to get in (be it in the Western Balkans or the Caucasus).

Those who get money want in, obviously. I was referring to those paying for the party (ie Germany)

No, Germans quite like the EU. Same as in France, it's that popular and Brexit was so much of a disaster, that the far-right parties stopped talking about leaving the EU and moved to just vague stuff about reforming it.
