I don't think the "holier-than-thou European smugness" is the reason why people lack workers' rights in the US. Most americans have never talked to a European person. But that certainly is the narrative some billionaire backed media is pushing. You only have the recourses you fought for. Having a culture where an organized workforce is not seen as rampant bolshevism would be a good start.

I didn't say European attitudes were responsible for workers' rights in the US being bad: that would be a hell of a cause. It's just extremely tiring when Europeans come in to flex their workers' rights super smugly like this <3 – yes, we know it's bad, we don't need someone to come rub it in every time.

The smugness is believing that if you oppose European style regulations in anyway it is because you are brain washed by "billionaire backed media " and clearly have not seen the light as to how wonderful everything about the European style utopia of perfection we are missing in the backwaters of misery and abuse that is the United States
