There is a meme in the US media that only if we are more like social democracies of Europe, it would be a paradise here. Reality begs to differ. UK has NHS and free college and still went for Brexit and Boris. France has everything Bernie Sanders wants and yet Marine Le Pen has been the runner up choice for the President in the last 2 elections. Italy is about to vote in Meloni. And now the socialist's dream otherwise known as Scandinavia is seeing the rise of far right. Let's not even talk about Hungary or Poland.
If European governance model is so awesome based on HN comments and Bernie followers, why so much support for the far right?
