They’re extremely racist, which is a huge plus, just like the Swiss flag 🇨🇭

Fascism is on the rise in Europe too so maybe go to Japan or something

Like plenty countries, but it only becomes a problem when it’s also against whites.
stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
True. Australia and New Zealand are our last hope
Razzazzika@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
Fascists on the rise in Australia too sadly. New Zealand is very isolationist and anti immigration.

Brazil is good. Nice food, people and forests.
Bloomcole@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
Saying that could be seen as extremely racist of you.

As a Japanese, I think Japan has always been a fascists’ country. The flavor of nazism did change from Germany one to American one after WW2, though
SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Japanese are starting to hate gaijin. Because of disrespectful tourists and “influencers”.
Brandonazz@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Starting? Japan has a long, proud history of xenophobia.
InputZero@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It’s a respectful xenophobia though. Like, it’s just as bad but entirely Japanese in flavor. If I had to make a ham fisted metaphor.
TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I always see xenophobia and racism as different level in the same category. Like, the former is “milder” and something as I, as an immigrant, could overlook. The latter is far more hateful and intolerant.

still, EU countries have far superior electoral systems than the US to help mitigate the rise and influence of Fascism.
Bloomcole@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
They even have multiple parties and an Overton window wider than only right to extreme-right!

yeah we have this thing called democracy it’s pretty cool

That is if the other parties aren’t largely complicit. Looking at you Germany, Denmark, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Hungary…
Bloomcole@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
True, same is now happening with those awful US dems.
Already tone-deaf before the election, saying they just needed to accept the uncomfortable genocide support or get Trump.
Now they want to beat him by “embracing patriotism” “banning left wing voices” and other horrible Trump style measures.

Which is weird when you see the IRL support and hype around Bernie and AOC. The people want more left in the democratic party.
Bloomcole@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
Japan has its own fascists.
randomname@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
yes, the country famous for being accepting of foreigners, that is also known for a high standard of living…

Embrace pedophilia 😵
HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
What a disgusting thing to say. Also, a little racist.
MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
😂
Just joking about Japan because I view the population as into pedophilia because of animes
FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Not pedophiles; ephebophiles. Still gross, but adults remember their sexual awakenings and early experiences around the same time so it’s at least reflective of life experience. However, if you’re in late 20s and up jerking off with your waifu pillow you should seek help

The far-right in Europe seems to have lost momentum a bit-- for now. The far-right parties in government in Sweden and Netherlands proved themselves incompetent and lost support. The support on German AfD stagnated. Meloni has shown to be more moderate than expected (well, not quite but that’s a long story). And Le Pen has been prosecuted, but I think this is not enough to actually kill the French far-right movement so long as the French government still practice neoliberal policies. But I think the major factor that made Europeans think twice now about gravitating towards fascism is after witnessing the shit show in America and Musk’s overt election interference in Europe. I should not be laughing, but what a laugh the three months of Trump administration has been!
SLVRDRGN@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Incompetence, it seems, is what is valued here in America to go up the ranks.
TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I will be honest, I thought that Trump will continue with his fascist-adjacent/fascist-lite policies from his first term. Looks like in this term, he is out for vengeance and doubled down!
sgbrain7@lemm.ee 3 weeks ago
that’s actually a bit reassuring to know

Be real careful. We thought we were turning the corner a few years ago, too. Seems so long ago.
