    German here.

    While we have real problems with the far right gaining ground in Germany I would argue that it is by no means comparable to the situation the US currently finds itself in.

    I mean, the USA is literally one year away from the real possibility of full blown fascism while the fascists in Germany get 21-22% in polls and currently have no chance to successfully overthrow democracy.

    So yes, I would argue that the USA is a couple of steps further than Germany along the way to fascism.

      Ah see, someone with actual experience, and surprise surprise, it differs from the assumptions of the dumbass American assuming things.
