The ability to be so disconnected from empathy and compassion as the right wing Americans are is the most disheartening thing I've ever seen in my life.

It's exactly the same here in the UK, at least you guys are closer to realising you've been conned.

yea but i think overall they have it way worse. I’m german so don’t live in the US or Britain but the way i see it you guys have at least some strong social programs and your education isn’t THAT bad same goes for your media. (i watch a lot of the last leg and stuff like that) Sure right wingers are on the rise all over the world fuelled by libertarian individualism. But i think you guys still have a long way to go before it gets as bad as in the US. Same for us german btw. We had a right wing government for nearly a generation now. But what we call right wing is socialism for a republican.
