Global right-wing extremism and the US
I just posted this and read your post about right-wing extremism. This submission to my site highlights what you’re talking about. Feel free to reblog and comment – it’s truly quite amazing and horrifying.
More about the globalized phenomenon of right wing rhetoric, captured by cognitivedissonance.
One difference I see between the European and North American flavors is that Americans seem to be more keen on their religious affiliations, whereas Europeans seem more drawn towards the continental history of Enlightenment. Americans seem to be concerned over the loss of their Christian roots/ recognition of their religion, and European nationalists seem to be focused on a philosophical tradition (through lack of a better way of explaining it, a Cartesian heritage, perhaps).
For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you. Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
