I think Europe had their time. They are nodding knowingly and pitifully at America at how hard it will be to climb out of it.
Nah, the right is on the raise in Europe too. The question is for how long and how far do they get.
With a lot of money from the US.
In some cases, but rich people are usually right wing as it justifies their wealth. Consequently they are classists. And racism is just another type of classism.
In other words, Europe has their own rich monsters.
Russia is worse then the US is, but the US is working on it. Both are helping out likeminded European groups. Musk was turning up at German and British facist party events for a reason.
So what you're saying is that the UK needs a repeat of Cable Street to drive home that fascism isn't welcome and drive out wannabe-Mosley.
Would be an option. Another really good one would be a reform of the election system. It is insane that Labour got 2/3 of the seats in parliament with only 1/3 of the votes. Even worse with Reform polling at about 1/3 of the votes right now.
