>The rest of the western world justifies its idiocy mostly through nationalistic, ethnic and class bigotry. And exactly what "idiocy" is that? I see some problems with right-wing extremism in Europe lately, but the same thing is happening in America, and I don't see protests with heavily-armed neo-Nazis happening in Europe the way they are in America (much less with the nation's leader calling them "fine people"). In fact, the rest of the "western world" really doesn't seem to have a lot of problems AFAICT, not the way America does. They have some problems, of course, just like anyone, but the scope and scale seem to pale in comparison, and they seem to be getting a handle on them for the most part, instead of letting them fester or spin out of control.
