Schooled by Trump, Americans are learning to dislike their allies
Schooled by Trump, Americans are learning to dislike their allies
Our polling shows that Americans’ and Europeans’ attitudes towards each other are changing quickly
What is wrong with this country..?
Same thing that was wrong with Germany in 1939.
The collapse of opportunities for the working class has lead to anger. The ruling capitalist elite have captured that anger and redirected it to innocent vulnerable people rather than allowing the anger to be correctly channeled towards them.
Meanwhile I am learning to dislike my fellow Americans to the point where I am starting to think violence might be the only viable solution.
Because it is. Trump must stop breathing once and for all.
And this is why everyone who says "they won't invade Canada because too many people like us" are sadly mistaken. Trump constantly tells them how nasty we are and the media has started its disinformation to lay the groundwork for invasion.
Ukrainians a few decades ago would have said the same about the Russians.
I don't know. Russian anti-Ukraine propaganda has been pretty consistent for centuries.
I would say "How would they identify which one is American or Canadian" in a skirmish but I look at what happened to Ukraine
Fucking brain dead... Trump can't even string a coherent sentence together, yet it's enough to convince these mouth breathers to turn on Canada?
The feeling is mutual. The majority of people in the EU are downgrading USA to "necessary partner" now and one fifth sees USA as an ally. Two thirds feels cooperation should be reduced.
Well played Putin, well played.
I mean an emancipation of the EU from the US is well overdue, Trump or not.
A lot of Americans are poorly educated in international relations and politics and genuinely do not understand the fallout of Trump’s choices/statements. We sadly will all suffer to some degree because of this ignorance
Why the rise in democrats tho?
Splash damage
Centrists
Just because Democrats are more resistant, they are not immune to propaganda.
Tariffs that don't exclusively impact red states, I guess?
No chart for Israel? Curious...
What do you think that chart would show?
(Aside from a huge drop in democratic popularity following the anti-israel media blitz following the Oct 7 massacre)
Do you think Republicans are the only ones susceptible to propaganda?
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP repeatedly claims that the European Union was “formed in order to screw the United States”. Canada, America’s northern neighbour and second-largest trading partner, is “one of the nastiest countries”. Russia was “doing what anyone would do” when it bombed Ukraine’s energy infrastructure during a pause in American intelligence sharing. Our polling with YouGov shows how this rhetoric is reshaping people’s opinions about their countries’ allies.

I thought I was immune to the insanity, but I'm flabbergasted again. Did he really say that?
MAGA is the enemy.
Fascism is the enemy. Maga is just one version.
True enough
So the data shows explicitly that it's not Americans but Republicans but well just go ahead and generalize.
Fantastic journalism.
It's not a poll of Republicans, it's a poll of the US public and there's upticks in both camps.
To the rest of the world, it's not the United States of Republicans that are threatening Greenland and Canada, tearing up their own trade agreements, and shitting on allies. It's the United States of America.
Pointing at the other internal camp and implying 'It's not us, it's them' might help US residents sleep at night but it does nothing on the world stage.
You mean MAGAts hate our allies. Decent humans love other decent humans.
You do see the rise on the Democrats line too, no?
Well, it is a “sin” to emphasize with others.
Okay I get Republicans (jk I don't) but why is the same thing happening to Democrats?
70% of our media is controlled by Nazis especially the news at a local level. Propaganda at that level eventually worms it's way into the opposition party.
Stockholm syndrome?
Where is the line for enemies separating you from your allies so they will not be there when you need them?
Thing is, I don't care if an idiot doesn't like me. I know whatever reasons he has are invalid.
Unfortunately that idiot also has a gun
We also have idiots with guns (and bombs)
Not sure if it's reassuring yet
Interesting that for Democrats Canada has had more "unfriendly" responses than the EU even before the sanctions. Maybe because the EU is less relevant to them since Canada directly borders the US?
Lmao
