Why do Americans always think in violence. The American people put a bunch of nazis into power, now you want Europe to fix it with a full out war. It's like the US is full of toddlers. Idiocracy was a meant as a comedy, not a manual.
How have fascists typically been successfully handled by the international community in the past?
Look at Germany, education is the answer.
edit: I was wrong, I don't know the answer also I learned America is not a democracy.
I love Germany, but Germany is a democracy. The US isn't. 70%+ of Americans want universal healthcare, but "our" politicians shit on us and laugh. Most Americans want free college, but again, we get zero representation. We want unions, but companies freely fire workers for organizing and our politicians don't care. South Dakota voted to legalize marijuana but the governor told the people they were too stupid to know what they voted for so she had one of the judges she appointed overrule democracy.
I could go on and on and on. Anyone who thinks the US is a democracy is extremely ignorant on the issue. Merely voting isn't a democracy. A representative democracy is only a democracy if the representatives serve the will of the majority.
So get back to me when German politicians start ignoring everything the voters want and start gutting all of their public programs instead and then when politicians who promise to help get elected but do absolutely fucking nothing to help you
