That’s not true in my experience. General rule of thumb in the places I’ve lived and visited seems to be everyone cares about their own politics and American politics.
Comment on Man in trump merch at Metalfest Open Air in Plzeň, Czechia
SchwertImStein@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 months agoEurope does not care about american politics as much as americans like to think we do. Not everyone associates trump with nazi instantly. I do not want to attribute to being a nazi something that can be explained by willingness to make an extremely crass joke.

Sadly, the Trump effect isn’t a thing in Europe. He’s a fascist, by the way.

He is rounding up people of a particular color using a paramilitary masked police force and without a trial sending them to a prison in another country that, for years, has been reported on as torturing and killing its prisoners

95% of people in Europe would not be able to tell you what ICE in the us is, nor what it does right now.

My comment was meant to be informative to that end. I read (or maybe misread) your comment as implying that Americans are overreacting by calling him a Nazi, while I think it an apt comparison and that they are literally and intentionally using the Nazi playbook every step of the way.
