Europe as a whole is swinging too far too the right. Y’all all are descending back into Fascism. The recent popularity of the AfD in Germany being a prime example. My own parents - who immigrated from Germany - are deeply disappointed in the direction the country is taking.

I think everyone everywhere knows the world over is sliding to the right.

Pot, Kettle, Black. The US Republican party is about as, if not more fascist than the German AfD or Austrias FPÖ.

In comparison, the US Democrats are about where European conservatives can be located on the political spectrum.

This does not imply that the current political direction is not problematic.

WE all know this. Sadly the average person doesnt care.

Yes, but the US is already there and has a fascist at the helm so I’m assuming your parents immigrated elsewhere or this is a weird comment.
