So Mussolini happened because people did not have guns ? That looks a bit simplistic to me. There are many reasons people turn to extreme right totalitarian leaders. Remember people wanted him to lead. At least for the first part of his run.



Nobody has guns here (aside from some peasants and hunters) and I don't feel any less free than someone living in the US.

FORTY THOUSAND people shot to death in US in 2018


https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/w...ates/85994716/


About 50 or 60 (or so) people get shot to death in the UK every year.


even accounting for the population difference (around 5 to 1) the difference is incredible, can you see why there is such an 'anomaly'? A few clues here perhaps:-

What has 'freedom' got to do with it? Freedom to kill with ease? Does that make the lawless hell-holes of some 3rd World countries on this planet the most 'free'? Or are you just 'brainwashed' by 'second amendment' bollox?

My current research obsession is Montenegro. It seems quite easy to get a residence permit there.

I'm thinking of taking a trip down there this year. Seems to be an interesting place to pick up some cheap real estate (coastal, mountains, city or farmland) and live a simple life.

You are right. Absolute majority of that what is loved to label as cultural marxism has nothing to do with marxism. Yes, that so called "cultural marxism" is libertarian, bourgeois ideology and thing.

I don't think any decent European country wants immigrants like your ID suggests. Luckily this is not the US...

As for being "free"- I am not sure is being a "free" a good thing. Being "free"- being "capitalistic"?

lol, tovarishts Bulgarian. Your Bulgaria is not that super southern at all, I have been there in yours. And there is no that freezing in here, you tovarishts with stupid statements.
Your "tropical" Bulgaria and Baltics even belong into same climate zone:
