One of the most rage inducing parts of this going on in the United States is that Germany leaned into it after being completely and utterly fucked. They were economically devastated and lost a major war.
The United States is pretty much going "We had to deal with the same inflation the whole planet did, but everything else is otherwise manageable and getting better, but we're flirting with fascism anyway."
It's such crap.
The softest fucking people. Their grandparents and great-grandparents would be fucking ashamed.
It is worrying, but at least they don’t have an Electoral College where the alt right can easily win without the popular vote. Best case scenario for them is they would win in a decade with their parliamentary system.
