    Thanks man, that cleared it up. I agree that both wings in the US are right, it’s just the way the country is I guess. The Democrats would be considered extreme right in most of western Europe.

      Note that all European countries are still liberal and thus Hexbear users dislike them. This is before getting into the history of colonialism and imperialism which continues to this day.

      When we applaud Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger for military coups that overthrow colonial-supported leaders, it’s because those coups are popular among their people and take direct anti-colonial action, even if they’re not socialist revolutions like we’d prefer.
