> The precedent of far-right state oppression of economic freedoms, political speech, businesses, and the free market would certainly affect you.
Nothing you do in the US is seen as a role model here. For both better and worse.
I mean, consider that the country I live in required the censorship of Wolfenstein 3D when it came out — it never copied US attitudes to freedom of speech in the first place. Likewise, even the (I think) more relaxed UK attitudes to political censorship are the kind of thing America would never accept, while the UK would never accept US attitudes to guns and even all the flag waving is seen as a bit sus.
Also, by US standards, almost all of us over here are basically what your politics would call communists — not just because of the huge massive statues the actual communists put up that nobody took down, e.g. https://maps.app.goo.gl/qFRPSDec3ujrX79bA, but just because the European (including UK) Overton Windows are almost entirely to the left of the US Overton Window.
The US has (theoretically) separation of Church and State, the UK has a state church, Germany has direct tax collections paid from your wages to your church (unless you ask to be excommunicated). And a few countries to the south (depending how you count the micro-states), there's the actual pope, head of all the catholics, telling people to chill about homosexuality.
The EU is what some of the louder US right wing voices in my lifetime have claimed they want the US federal government to be: only there to make inter-state trade easier, not have any real power over the states themselves. (The right wings within the EU are a lot more complex than that, as there's not much agreement between national politicians over all the member countries).
We're not on the same page about which side of the road to drive on, which units of measure to use, or if we should have conscription.
We're not copying the US, we have better things to spend our time on. Like who should pay to subsidise the Deutschlandticket, or if New Year fireworks should really be allowed to go continuously at full intensity from midnight to 3am plus sporadically from sunset to sunrise, or if we should be allowed to borrow money to resolve our economic depression.
> Look at how the far right has spread across Germany and the US, and many places in between.
And none of that had anything to do with Florida arguing with Disney.
I can tell, because that spread pre-dated the lawsuit by a decade. If anything, causality was reversed.
What did spread from the US and may have precipitated the far-right, was the impact of the misuse of the Black–Scholes model, but even then the biggest pain within the EU was the Greek economy and loans running through it, not Florida.
