Western Europe’s weird “we all learned our lesson after 1945 and now we’re all nice progressives who don’t do icky things like racism and sexism anymore 😇” superiority complex is straight up one of the biggest enablers of the rise of the militant far right here

Also the rightwing directly exploits this complex to recruit people who don’t consider themselves nationalist, or even racist. How many times do you see shit like “Immigrants and refugees are bad because they’re misogynist, they’re antisemitic, they’re homophobic!! And we’re not, because we’re too nice for those things, but the only way to protect our progressiveness is to keep them out so they don’t bring all that bad stuff back!!” or “We give these people all this equality and opportunities and they’re still fucked up and poor! What the fuck is wrong with those people!?”
