Though European, I am exposed to much more US-centric socials and news, so I might be biased.

Is the US more fucked up in terms of cultural destruction, or are we Europeans like sedated sheep, who cannot see the truth anymore, and our situation in terms of cultural decay and collective mistrust is even worse?

It’s far far worse in Europe because most of you can’t even see the problem nor are you allowed to talk about it.

Hey, remember even thinking might not be permitted. I still remember the scene of the UK lady praying in front of an abortion clinic.

She was of course detained.

LOL. Will there be an inflection point that triggers social rebellion agains this?

Because, as you say, for all my friends, family and close circles, everything here is just fine

I’m not sure there will be an inflection point honestly or if there will be it will be much later.

To be fair, we talk about it, even if that is restricted

Reminds me of when Peter McCormack told me he has free speech inside his house lol 😂

There is freedom of speech but no freedom after speech 😅

Talking about Europe as one big country is not very accurate – even if many countries are part of the EU. There are lots of based people (mainly in the old communist countries where people have experienced ‘government control’ and therefore are vigilant) and lots of woke people who are so fucking naive and misguided that it's difficult to comprehend. So, the situation is worse than in the US, but I don't think that the difference is that big, and there are a lot of differences between different countries in Europe.

Almost every country in Europe is experiencing the same mass migration. With a few exceptions like Poland and Hungary. Also let’s not pretend the EU doesn’t exist.

So, what is the thing that we disagree here?

Nobody is saying that we should pretend that the EU does not exist.

I don’t think we disagree that much. It just seems to be a European cope to say that there are different countries. Because they all share one elite.

Well, in that sense it's the same as in the US, right? Or how do you see it?

I see it like this. Both places are pretty fucked up. I think that what is happening in the US and in Europe is unconstitutional in both the US and in European countries. However, an important difference is that the constitution (and the spirit of the constitution) gives the people a better chance to fight against the tyranny in the US.

By the way, thanks for the reply. Much appreciated 🙏

I think a lot of people see it. But Europeans are more complacent, and more suspicious of any strong opinions or ideology. This probably goes back to the second world war and its aftermath. So we work out compromises, without principles, and then compromise the compromises. Rinse and repeat.

When Europe hits about 50% white that’s usually the moment people start to wake up.

I live in Europe, know a lot of smart Europeans who are friendly, you can have conversations, but when it gets to certain topics, they are almost brain dead, checked out, unable to process. It’s like a cult.

Yeah the self censorship is bad. A heavily brainwashed population ushering in their own demise.

disappointing to me because I like some of these people, see them socially on occasion, have *some* values in common, but you can’t really be close friends with a cultist.

Seems way worse in Europe. But it’s always hard to know exactly what’s happening in another country when you don’t live there. I lived in France in 2011-2013 though. Wouldn’t want to live there as a business guy. Not in 1,000 years.
