Argentina, Brazil, Germany to an extent, France is flirting with it, Italy, the Netherlands (my country) is fucking around and finding out, Hungary has been at it since before it was cool, Indonesia elected a literal was criminal. And that’s all the cases I know about.
Canada has also been flirting with it, and UK kind of already did it in a different way. There’s probably quite a few more. I’m glad you’re at least bringing up the diversity of these populations; even Russia has some good citizens ultimately hopeless at situations that are out of their control (although US has some ways to go before they round up all dissonance).
Other than Hungary those examples are not even in the same postal code as what’s happening in the US, let alone the same ballpark. Argentina and Indonesia were always a clusterfuck, and were never first-world countries.
Is it really, though? Which other first-world country would you say is even remotely as far down the rabbit hole of idiocy as the USA?

Did you forget about the previous Polish fascist piss government? Or Hungary, Italy, The Netherlands, and there’s probably more that I’m forgetting.
