/pedant the term would be “emigrating”

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 57 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Specifically the second one.

immigrate from Europe

emigrate to Europe

[–] HK65@sopuli.xyz 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Depends on your viewpoint.

Emigrate from Europe and immigrate to Europe is also a valid way to look at it.

[–] JustAnotherKay@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago

It is, but that's not the viewpoint they used in the meme

Because when you're the one who "came up" with it, it's usually a pretty sweet ride, provided you can weather the revolutions and stuff.

[–] parody 8 points 1 week ago

Ooooh sorry weathering revolutions isn’t part of our Fascism ‘25 package - that was extra :-/

Would you be interested in our selection of neck guards?

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I blame the French, before them damned near every Germanic society had a broadly democratic tribal or clan based system. Then the French combined that with Roman autocratic systems and somehow created an early version of Divine right of kings and a form of proto absolutism. Yes I am glossing over a tonne of shit but compare the French estates to the clusterfuck that was the Holy Roman Diet and it's like comparing a member of the English Royal guard to a Somalian pirate.

[–] GladiusB@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

I blame greed. It doesn't matter where it came from. It's some bullshit.

The fascism was within you the whole time.

[–] ColdSideOfYourPillow@piefed.social 21 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The fascism was the ~~friends~~ enemies we made along the way.

Fascism is on the rise in Europe too so maybe go to Japan or something

[–] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 30 points 1 week ago (3 children)

The far-right in Europe seems to have lost momentum a bit-- for now. The far-right parties in government in Sweden and Netherlands proved themselves incompetent and lost support. The support on German AfD stagnated. Meloni has shown to be more moderate than expected (well, not quite but that's a long story). And Le Pen has been prosecuted, but I think this is not enough to actually kill the French far-right movement so long as the French government still practice neoliberal policies. But I think the major factor that made Europeans think twice now about gravitating towards fascism is after witnessing the shit show in America and Musk's overt election interference in Europe. I should not be laughing, but what a laugh the three months of Trump administration has been!

[–] VeryVito@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

Be real careful. We thought we were turning the corner a few years ago, too. Seems so long ago.

[–] SLVRDRGN@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Incompetence, it seems, is what is valued here in America to go up the ranks.

They’re extremely racist, which is a huge plus, just like the Swiss flag 🇨🇭

As a Japanese, I think Japan has always been a fascists' country. The flavor of nazism did change from German one to American one after WW2, though

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 20 points 1 week ago

As someone who lives in Japan, I've got some bad news for you...

The good news is that it's mostly just the olds. The bad news is that it isn't exclusively just the older generations.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Japanese are starting to hate gaijin. Because of disrespectful tourists and “influencers”.

[–] Brandonazz@lemmy.world 37 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Starting? Japan has a long, proud history of xenophobia.

still, EU countries have far superior electoral systems than the US to help mitigate the rise and influence of Fascism.

Europe accepts its sons and daughters of long ago. Specially the talented ones who contributed to empowering science in the US.

Not the Drumpf family, tho. Those can stay there instead of returning to their roots in Germany. The last thing we want is a "Make Germany Great Again" movement - they're already great right now, no need to fix what's not broken, thank you.

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 13 points 1 week ago

I wish the first part were actually true, on the bureaucratic level. Sadly it is quite difficult to emigrate to the EU

Uruguay has a pretty easy system you can make a request of residence and it seems that usually go through. Americans do not need a visa to come but if you prepare the paperwork is easier..

[–] Lightsong@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Tell me more about Uruguay. What's irs like over there, standard of living etc.

[–] kboy101222@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

A quick scan of Wikipedia shows there's an actual left wing party currently in power that was formerly led by a guerilla fighter during the military occupation of the country in the 80s

As well they legalized abortions in 2012 and weed and same sex marriage in 2013

It's got a 3 branch government similar to America

Economy seems stable, Internet seems good.

Guess it's time to start learning Portuguese or Spanish!

[–] S_H_K@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 week ago (3 children)

The left wing party is not led by a former guerrila fighter but said one Jose Mujica was president yes here the president is important yes but not the all powerful figure. That was in the 70s (the guerrilla thing) and they all admitted that doing a revolution was not the best answer to the political trumoil. Also the militia coup was backed by Nixon so there is that.

And it's Spanish the official language.

Best option on Latin America on pretty much any standard. Progressive laws, good weather - main negative thing I can think of is that rent can be quite expensive. I've considered moving there in the past but my Spanish is awful.
