lol yea. I’m an American and fully support other nations boycotting our goods but I’m noticing an overlap with these boycotts and nationalist-imperialist sentiments.

THIS; I feel deranged, not hearing anyone else say they've noticed it.

Weirdly enough, from what I've seen, European nationalists tend to be very much against the EU.

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 10 points 19 hours ago

That's not entirely true. Europeans tend to dress up racism as national pride and concern for cultural norms (with a few exceptions). So it isn't so much "I'm proud of my country" as "I don't want Arabs and Africans on my street".

A lot of European countries have a long and detailed history that paints a grim picture that most people like to distance ourselves from.
