Look at the changes in immigration laws. 15 years ago citizenship within 5 years was an option in a bunch of places. Now 10 years at 100% (not 95%) employment is the minimum, despite labor shortages. And, more worrying, now just about every country has laws about taking away citizenship from people, even people born in the country.
Sparingly used so far, but in a bunch of places these laws could be applied very widely without changes to the law (ie. it would not require a 2/3 majority or anything like that, just an executive that changes a few judges around). The next Trump (probably "Le Pen" - remember that name, you'll be hearing it a lot) will make that happen, and she's probably got 40-45% of the vote (right now it might even be 60%, but that's mostly because everyone hates Macron). We are one election away from that happening.
