    Weirdly enough, from what I’ve seen, European nationalists tend to be very much against the EU.

      That’s not entirely true. Europeans tend to dress up racism as national pride and concern for cultural norms (with a few exceptions). So it isn’t so much “I’m proud of my country” as “I don’t want Arabs and Africans on my street”.

      A lot of European countries have a long and detailed history that paints a grim picture that most people like to distance ourselves from.
