I mean yeah, the social democratic left dominated post-war politics, started to collapse after 73, got a second wind in the late 90's/early 00's with the Third Way and then collapsed again after 08. To vastly oversimplify.
While my own country has indicated that the message of social democracy can remain relevant when fighting on its own turf against an overreaching opponent, as a socialist I am extremely worried about the success of the right, even the 'alt right' internationally. China and India alone, two countries governed by cultural nationalist conservatives, make up about 1/3rd of humanity.
