Aren't regular, peaceful protests a good thing and a sign of healthy freedom of speech?

I understand your misgivings about tighter border controls, but if you're already inside the EU, I'm not sure why that would motivate you to move.

Yes, you're 100% right about the mentioned freedom of speech and that's how it's supposed to be like.

Still, as the far-left/far-right gets more media coverage due to recent protests here and overall mood (read pro-Russian (and we've been occupied by Russia before lol)) on social media, some of them won in the recent regional elections and now these extremists have officially their electorate inside town halls.

Who knows how far can it get in a few more years.
