    Fascism is not even Russian funded or American spread, Europe is perfectly capable of growing its own fascism as we saw 100 years ago,

    Capable and seen in the past, yes, but the current wave of it is indeed funded and spread by Russians and Americans.

      Partially funded by Americans and to a lesser degree Russians, primarily funded by Europeans

      Edit: to clarify, I don’t believe Russia has less of an intent on controlling European politics than the USA does, it’s just that the USA has a lot more power, money and relations with Europe, so it naturally has a lot more ways to influence our policy. As an example, Europe will (righfully) be very angry at Russia when it starts a war with Ukraine, but will join the USA in a war in Iraq.
