Summary

European far-right leaders celebrated Donald Trump’s election victory, seeing him as an ally who shares their anti-immigration and authoritarian views.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, a close Trump associate, promised “big plans” in partnership with the U.S. leader, likely involving hardline stances on immigration and cultural issues.

Leaders like Italy’s Giorgia Meloni and Germany’s AfD also voiced support, aligning with Trump’s opposition to “woke” and progressive values.

Experts warn this alliance could embolden right-wing policies across Europe, with Orbán potentially acting as a key link between Trump and Europe’s far-right bloc.

Because Trump and Europe's far-right have the same Russian boss.

Well let's send all of the far right from Europe to America, and all the "woke" from America to Europe. This way when the country bursts into flames it won't bring the rest of the world with it.

Or would Americans be racist against fellow, but foreign far right extremist?

I don't think putting a unified fascist populace behind the strongest military in the world is a great idea.

It's fine, most of the good stuff needs basic literacy to operate.

Source: worked on some of the good stuff. Also mostly moved to Europe.

That's a nice fantasy, fascists being incapable of reading and therefore incapable of invading other countries and killing people.

I would suggest you do not read a history book if you value the peace of mind that comes with that belief.

I lived in the south, they can't read.

They can invade, but that won't go well for them, they're basically Russians doing stupid human wave attacks.

Again, I wish I lived in the world you think exists.

Btw, you do realize that's the whole reason the worthless inbred defective trash lost the civil war in the first place right?

It was a blowout, they fought hard in the beginning, but once ... you know, basic industry came around, they were just brain-dead monkeys getting fed into a woodchipper.

We made this shit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Monitor

They had 1 ironworks for the whole south, and thought starting a war was a good idea, they couldn't make rolling stock, and when Sherman made his railroad neckties, that was it for them, they were done.

You can't possibly imagine how unimaginably backwards they are, they literally live hundreds of years in the past if it weren't for us giving them all their technology, their universities are a joke in comparison, if you can call them universities.

It wouldn't be a war, it would barely be pest control.

Can you blog about this somewhere that doesn't involve me? Calling the US economy backwards is laughable and now I don't respect you.

Bye.

[-] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

The US economy isn't backwards.

The southern economy is.

[-] RedditRefugee69@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 days ago

The scenario at hand isn't US Civil War 2. Pay better attention to reading next time so you don't waste everyone's time.

You made a pretty significant reading error and you're trying to say other people don't read well.

That's hilarious.

[-] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

That’s a nice fantasy, fascists being incapable of reading and therefore incapable of invading other countries and killing people.

Where do you think the American fascists came from?

https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691172422/hitlers-american-model

He used the Jim Crow south as his model for Germany, and after the war, black GIs came back from liberating Europe to be lynched by Southern law enforcement.

They are our fascists, through and through, always have been.

I think you didn't understand the question yourself.

[-] InverseParallax@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I lived in that world.

Also worked on defense tech.

Let's just say I'm drooling a bit.

[-] RedditRefugee69@lemmynsfw.com 0 points 3 days ago

You keep saying that. Masturbate to your own fiction somewhere else.

[-] T156@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

This way when the country bursts into flames it won't bring the rest of the world with it.

The interconnected nature of the world these days means that it would be inevitable that everyone else would be embroiled in whatever it is that happens.

[-] Siegfried@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Because now they are the center again /s

he can't be that bad... look at him; he has angel wings

Thankfully genocide joe spent the last 4 years fighting against fascism instead of murdering children in a genocide. \s
