In the rest of the world, we call left of center Americans "normal people"
If your country dose a lot of stupid shit people will make memes about it, you dumb American!
America is leading the chart of the western world in terms of stupidity rn if you ask me and it's definitely easy to be one of the enlighned over there (just don't try to oppress others) but compared to other parts of the population I definitely prefer them!
That's not what I try to say, America is simply first rn and similar groups all over the western world adopt it because of that, it's not a secret that the western world started to move to the right again in recent times and that leads to a lot of shit if you ask me which definitely isn't limited to America but currently they are simply the first to do certain really bad tgings!
Judiging from the culture war the alt-right started to adopt in europe and other global leader changes (E.g. India) in the past few years I highly disagree, there is more accaptance in the general population but over all there are more and more countries LGBTQ people aren't welcome in or have to flee from and the pure hate appears even here in Austria and in our neighbor countries. Trump of all people put it very well, five years ago his audiance didn't even know what trans is and now they get more excited about it than about tax cuts. I do agree that the world generally moves towards neo liberal ideas rouggly since the early 2000s and that workers right are at risk too, that's just not a very new development, stuff like that simply gains visibility during a crisis.
