Alternative for Germany has joined France’s National Rally and Reform U.K. in becoming the most popular party in its country, according to polls.

A poll Tuesday showed Alternative for Germany — which is under surveillance by the country’s intelligence services over suspected extremism — is now the most favored by voters. The survey by broadcaster RTL put the AfD at 26%, ahead of the ruling Christian Democrats at 24%.

This is a high watermark for the European far right, a once fringe movement whose virulently anti-immigration, anti-Islam and culture-war politics were shunned by the mainstream just a decade ago.

Today, these parties have developed deep ties with President Donald Trump and his Republican allies, who openly cite nationalists such as Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán as inspirations on policy and tactics.

    women dominate in health and bio, something like representing 60% of bio degrees alone, and many get grad degrees and actually get jobs in them. while men struggle alot more even in the fields they dominate.

    i posted another comment, they pretty much make a large amount of biotech employees, comparetively to men as well. Only the old school people in (scientist/phd)biotech are men (that had the job like 20-30+years ago), and when i was UNIversity, they made up a a majority of lab volunteers too. probably because bio-health is a safe degree for jobs, and not something like PSYCH or a stem that has no jobs at the bachelors level.
