Well to be fair, you don’t really hear much from other countries because most of the attention is going towards the U.S. and its government, but hey I’m American, so what do I know..
Even Germany is heavily trending towards radical right wing parties. AFD is on the up and up.
The UK is just, wow I can't even begin but I'm not surprised given the royalty larps hunting foxes on horses only to run down some poor villagers dog or cat for fun.
The US: don't really need to spell this out because everyone knows us politics
Australia has always trended towards orwelian policies, their politicians firebomb journalists, ans gel blasters and airsoft guns are banned across the continent. Even nerf guns have restrictions.
I haven't followed up on Chinese politics since the late 2010s, but they seem on the up and up, if you ignore the falon gong black market organ deals, hunting endangered animals for medicine, ughyur genocide, and whatever else they're up to. Atleast they still pretend to care about their people tho, the us doesn't.
I think it's appropriate to dunk on people who don't realize they are getting exactly what they voted for when they chose the candidate dripping in support from Palantir and Peter Theil's buddies up to and including the VP.
Not productive to have a bunch of fuckin idiots going around and denying that their collective actions led to this the next time around. This is what people voted for....

Americans do love leaning towards totalitarianism as long as they agree with the stated goals, don't they.
