Do you really think anyone outside the US thinks "freedom" is your main export? Lmao
I think the fact that he used scare quotes himself implies that they don't believe the US actually exports freedom either.
Incredible that everything he wrote could be prefaced with that ridiculous assertion lol. It's like having a large gem topped with a turd.
Meh, Europe has been dealing with fascist and other extremist people in politics for 20 years on a larger scale, and in some circles and areas of the world it's never gone away. It's nothing new, we just know better how to deal with them and they come and go. Instead of thinking it's some new American thing the rest of the world needs to learn about, you should learn how politics elsewhere works.
I don't doubt we're all fucked, but I don't see how that means that I need to read about every school shooting, every Trump's fart or every nonsense Musk says 300 times on my timeline. That thing about police dogs dying yesterday, on world news, that was also quite a pearl.
