    Bruh I’m from the EU and we’re inching closer and closer to the same thing in every country, any EU citizen being smug about it has no fucking legs to stand on

      We definitely have a problem with fascism in Europe too. That said, we do have systems in place that curb any power they have, at least somewhat.

      Agree. Looking back at the outcome of last EU parliament elections. Looking at the political situation in France, Germany, Austria, Italy… We are fucked.

        Yes, current polls show Afd and CDU/CSD having over 50% combined in Germany. We are no better

      It depends on the country you’re in I guess but I would say that generally speaking the EU right wing parties are a bit less extreme than Trump appears to be going to be this time around. I don’t know of any EU countries where they are planning to get rid of all immigrants among other things. Tbh, the person you can compare Trump to most is Hitler. And he has compared himself to Hitler too, which makes it even more crazy.

        Sure, but you can bet right-wing parties around Europe are taking notes right now and will get closer and closer to Trump in the next few years, just like they did last time
