  Then better ban all of Europe. Right now America is giving us even more reason to be anti-American.

  Create your own little echo chamber where you can convince yourself America doesn’t deserve every bit of anti-American hate it’s getting.

      No you’re not. Everyone knows Belgium doesn’t exist, especially Belgians.

      Well, I never said there weren’t also right-wing losers in Europe. The only reason why someone like Musk can make an attempt at getting his little claws in here is because there are a few “sympathetic” voices around.

      It’s up to the majority, then, to collectively stick up their middle fingers and say fuck off!

        So you agree that as a product of South Africa, Musk is ultimately the fault of the Dutch.

    Aren’t there several European countries with the problem of far-right parties gaining power in their governments? Germany literally just stripped firearm rights from their version of these groups earlier this week

      Any source on that? Couldn’t find anything in a quick search.

      About your question, I asked the Germans how the situation was there with the upcoming February election: feddit.org/post/6479021

  Honestly, people who are unequivocally pro-X or “why are you always critizing Y” are much worse overall, especially when X and Y are governments, companies or otherwise groups that the person isn’t even really a part of.
