In Europe, when something like this happens, everyone’s on the streets and there are strikes everywhere.
This is not true, most major European countries have a growing Trump like movement and they’re steadily gaining ground. Consider France, the country most notorious for its protests, the left there does like the Americans – keep voting for their version of the Democrats only to get burned over and over in Parliament. In many spaces, European countries do not have as good protection for individual liberties and even social democratic governments are fine with doing things that are sometimes on par with the Trump regime (albeit not being as gauche, lawless and explicitly cruel about it). For instance, the EU is trying to mandate that pretty much all digital communication is put under AI based surveillance (under the guise of tracking down pedos) – the movement against this is very fringe even though it affects everyone. You should also keep in mind that European leaders, all over the spectrum, are blindly caving to Trump whenever he exerts any form of pressure.
In summary, many of us in Europe are better off in terms of not yet living under a creeping autocracy that has become void of any credible democratic influence for the populace. But it’s slipping here too, heading in the same direction, and by and large the general public is not really paying attention.
The American capitalist banking lies have spread, but it’s definitely tangible how hypnotized the states are at the epicentrum of the apathy doctrine, ground zero bleeding edge weapons of mass distraction are deployed at twenty billion hertz.
The US became the world currency. To be able to create money from nothing is a big responsibility. It’s clear they have no interest / are not able to continue to be the custodians of that ideal. It’s more than likely going to China, and the small children born into that education system will be outraged at the Audacity and try to start a war. I really hope nobody at the helm of advanced weaponry has a mental break and tries to kill millions again. It would be devastating to see how much more dangerous these tools of slaughter has become.

You’re right, but two things can be true at the same time: Europe is slipping to the right, but it still has a lot more civil engagement.
But as long as neoliberalism is maintained while it withers, the course here will be the same as the US: Fascism.
