They just lost ground in the Netherlands, losing about 1/3 of their voters from last time (down from 24% to 17%)

I like your optimism, but this is likely an outlier. Any little mistake the sitting governments are making will push the far-right to new highs, and there is no reason to believe there won't be mistakes. There will be plenty. So, that's the fuel that keeps coming.

Now you need a lighter to set this all on fire, and we can see it grow in front of our eyes. The bigger the AI bubble grows, the more it will all come crashing down, and the next economic crisis will find all the EU countries (and not just those) ready for a far-right takeover. It's just a matter of time.
