      EU is having a moment because their Trumper types gained a lot of seats. They can’t pretend it’s just an American problem anymore.

        I’m actually hopeful that America had a brush with death and may shy away from that noise this time. We’ve got about 30% of the population still holding that loaded gun to our heads, but I think the rest of us understand what happens if we let them pull the trigger. Time will tell.

          I hope the rest of us understand that Treason Flag Alito and Corrupt Clarence are on a team considering whether or not to hand the president a Long Knife.

        Haha, what?

        We literally predicted Trump before you voted for him, because of the right-wing populism that caused Brexit.

          Nothing about “rising fascism is not unique to the US” has any relation to any perceived superiority.

          We get it though, you have some sort of inferiority complex but you don’t gotta project onto the entire fuckin country

      The social contract is null and void if it means a European ever has to see a Muslim person on the street.

        Part of the reason the right is doing so well is this sort of hyperbole from the left, we need to work on convincing people rather than drive them further into the arms of the right
