    Fox news may be hated because its a parody of itself. But American right wing in general is not realy, it is rather the opposite, global south chuds look upon American right wing politics as something they can emulate to “solve” their own issue. They do not understand they’re natural enemies.

    If you make a movie with Americans gunning down Latin American people on some Colombian drug cartel whatever Mission impossible plot garbage they’ll never see it as an insult, but as a method i.e “we can get there if we kill our own”.

    Maybe I’d agree with this 20 years ago but as the world gets more desperate I don’t think American soft power will decline if it turns into even more blatant right wing propaganda at all. It is pretty obvious world wide “(neo)liberalism” is a dead ideology just like “old(reagan era)” conservatism.
