I don’t know, but I think more Germans per capita are fluent in English than French, Spanish, or Latino people are, and maybe that has something to do with it.
Ah that would actually be quite a logical explanation, since being able to operate in English would make it easier for you to partake in Anglosphere trends
conversely, it can be a godsend when you consider how broadly the global north has been adopting fascism.
Nah that affects all countries regardless of English. Just look at Hungary
