3. MAGA in general hates Europe,

western Europe in particular. Universal health care, free college education, decent mass transit, higher levels of literacy, paid parental leave, reasonable gun control, respect for science and learning... in other words: Socialism!!!

Most of the MAGAs I've met have never actually been there, but get their "information" about Europe from Fox and other right wing sources. Which is why they'll say, and with a straight face, that Norway for instance is "a socialist hell hole."

Also, most Europeans don't speak English as their first language, and everyone knows English is the language Jesus prefers. The simple fact that so many Europeans actually know more than one language is highly suspicious to your average MAGA.

Like the old joke says:
Q: What do you call someone who knows three languages?
A: Tri-lingual.
Q: What do you call someone who knows two languages?
A: B-lingual.
Q: What do you call someone who knows only one language?
A: An American.
