I find that the the same authoritarian, isolationist, and anti-intellectual mind-viruses that permeate through society in the United States (especially in rural communities) have a beachhead here in Western Europe

America's worst export.

Bold to claim we had to export it. This is like someone saying "yeah, we've got black mold, but it obviously came from our neighbours, and has nothing to do with the raw sewage we've left in the basement for the last eighty years!"

Literally none of those things first gained traction in the Americas. As a US citizen, I think we need to be doing a general strike with riots in the streets and shutting down interstate trade with our bodies marching on the highways.

But you need to see to your own houses, because while the mold is running wild over here, it didn't start with us.
