Well in the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Italy, and more, fascist movements are exploding in popularity and the EU is actively trying to break encryption and turn itself into a surveillance state yearly. Also the fact that information is also controlled by a select few mega corporations and oligopolies are almost as common as the US.

Not to mention the UK which has already been a right wing surveillance state for years and is transitioning into a police state and arresting any dissenters constantly.

We like to pretend we are a paradise compared to the US, but we are very very rapidly taking the exact same path, just at an earlier stage.

You're not the world, America.

Then you should probably stop calling it that. They appropriated using the name of the continent for themselves.

Call it USA or Yankistan, whichever fits your mood.
