It's not good in Europe anymore, we are enduring an illegal immigration crisis which is creating incredible strife and division in society. Countries like France are on the verge of voting Far Right.

People have had enough, they are tired of their legitimate fears and concerns being ignored by politicians. The EU an overbearing undemocratic Union is beginning to shows signs of this strain. It's not inconceivable that the entire experiment could fall apart in the next decade.


In Europe the political spectrum is different. For them, Communists are Left-wing and the socialists are Center-Left. Anyone who criticizes the socialists are considered Far Right.

In the USA, the Far Right is the racist Right, and includes the KKK and Neo-Nazis, while most Republicans are Center-Right to Right. The Democrats consider themselves centrists, although it is really the old Kennedy Democrats who were centrists. Most Democrats today are Progressives on the Far Left and follow in the footsteps of the Frankfurt School and people like Herbert Marcuse and Saul Alinsky. All critics of Islamism are considered Far Right over in Europe, and they can even send people to prison for criticizing Islam. Very little freedom in Europe unless you don't say anything but what the Left wants you to say.
