As always, the United States’ number one export is rightwing crazy.
Europe started that trend though.
Both can be true?
At least I’d argue US cultural exports and social media is more dominant than, say, Germany’s.
But the US has had the right attacking democracy for longer than people are probably assuming too. I’m sure there is a better example than Newton Gingrich (anything goes, lying is fine, undermining the house) be he was 1995 and the Tea Party kind of grew from there and helped give the political space for Trumpism. McCarthyism is probably not too reasonable since there was a period in the middle but thats the mid-1950s and admittedly if you’re going back that far then its only a decade after fascism was in Europe
No worries, I was also going back that far by referencing operation paperclip. Which coincidentally also shows the dominance doesn’t have to come from the exporting side.
Ha, I missed that you were referencing operation paperclip
It’d be awkward when the Americans who fled to Europe to “get away from Trump’s fascist regime” get deported back to the US. 👀
That’s why I went to Russia and got sent to Ukraine, and immediately defected!
The trick governments don’t want you to know.
I’ve heard that if you escape North Korea and go to Thailand, they deport you to South Korea
WHY!?!? 😭
What Europe doing is correct. That’s the way to undermine support for the rising popularity of far-right parties.
