The short republican victory at the american midterm elections is good news on this side of the Atlantic. Unlike the Democrats the american right confronts that woke and cancel culture that weakens and corrupts not only America, but the West as a whole.
On this side of the Atlantic many feel uneasy about Joe Biden's leadership and an America divided and weakened by the spread of wokism and cancel culture.
Although in military and geopolitical terms the transatlantic relationship may have been reinforced by the russian aggression, Americans and Europeans still fail to realize that their common western civilisation is threatened from within itself. It makes no sense confronting Poutine or China if the free world is destroyed by decadent libertarian permissiveness and distorted moral values.
Moral decline may also have political consequences because on this side of the Atlantic main stream american culture, with its drag queens and LGTB activists, and its racialist narrative, is more an more received as a racist attempt to get it done with the european roots of western culture. Call it populism or not, it is a fact.
Trump's voters feel like european populists and they react with fury against a seemingly democratic order which is indeed perverted and used malevolently by the militants of wokism and cancel culture
In this context Poutine's criticism of western decadence is more than propaganda and we should listen to what he says in order to confront him with more than weapons. The West may need some kind of moral rearming.
To put it bluntly and shortly as a conclusion, the question is this : is it tolerable that in the West, mainstream mediatic culture keeps promoting a racist attempt to do away with age-long european values ?
And this in the name of a so-called cancel cuture, the real name of which is suicide culture.
