      I assume that’s what he meant with the “five steps behind”. As in, not worse, but heading the same direction.

      I am an European, but I have to digress he kind of has a point (even though it was unnecesiarly condescending). It’s definitely nowhere near as bad as in the US, and I think our political systems are a little bit more resistant to it than in the US, but alt-right rhetorics and parties are picking up way faster than I’d like.

      I mean, Slovakia is a recent and pretty terryfiing example.
