How do P-list Europeans feel/think about the fact that the US
President-elect has made an "alt-right" Nazi his top advisor? It makes me
sick. How does it make you feel?
The rise of Nazis in the US is different than the nationalist right in
Europe, but they both are rooted in fear. In the US that fear is against
all our resident Others, and less so insurgent ISSIS groups, despite GOP
propaganda. Like WW2, we have an ocean and colonial/imperial distance to
protect us. So we can be more smug. But we seem more paranoid than
warranted. Guilty conscience, maybe?
