No they arent . The world is watching us as a reality TV show. Humans are way too self absorbed to actually gaf or truly be worried about anything that doesn't directly involve them. Especially people in other countries. Hysteria works great on SM though!

Your streets are burning, there's massive civil unrest and people being jailed over mean FB posts in the UK. And you're worried about Trump and American politics. Lol

I'm interested in local politics, national politics, and global politics... as it all affects me in one way or another.

There was a lot of trouble by right wing facists in the UK, but also pretty much all modern societies are having similar issues with these fringe groups, to varing degrees, in the US you've got the extreme far right MAGA crew etc... a small but very vocal minority.

What was really heartening in the UK is after the first day of riots by the far right (which have been largly limited to a few cities) is that the anti-facist crowd came out the next day and absolutley dwarfed the far right, so much that they stayed home for the most part. And guess what.. no shops got looted and set on fire, etc.

Yes we are... It does involve me ... trump for example is a Russian symapathiser and would throw Ukraine under the bus in a second, rather than standing up against dictators...

Canadian expression. "American politics are too important to be left just to the Americans"
Trump is already bragging about becoming a dictator, disrupting the world economy, distroying NATO, turning the US in to a distopian theocracy and ultimwntly leading us to WW3. This is a concern that directly impacts all people

You're obfuscating... if you look up what happened properly, it's soon apparent that the teenager who carried out the stabbings is belived to be a UK citizen (police have not released details due to his age).

We do know he has 'brown skin' and that the far-right agitators jumped on it to push an agenda though, that much is fact.

And If you really want to know what the general public feeling in the UK more generally, the encumbant right wing party 'The conservatives' just suffered an historic election defeat to the more center-left Labour party.
