    On the one hand - lol. On the other hand, I’ve seen this applied to Marxism instead (curiously, almost never to fascism or nationalism). Heck, I’ve seen folks over at Sino criticize Marxism, because “it’s some German guy, we need our OWN, Chinese philosophy!”.

    On a third hand, I like to use this logic for Christianity and Europe.

      probably best to just assume that any attempt to dismiss ideas from other countries due to being “alien”, without any other reasons, is just reactionary scaremongering
