I suspect anyone who wants to address the elephant in the room here will have to choose between accepting support from semi-fascist types or getting cancelled

The same elephant is in the room in Germany. The society starts discovering patriotism which was unthinkable few years ago. The problem gets slowly too noticeable to be hidden by mainstream politicians.
