Europism
An ideological counterpart to Ruscism, representing an aggressive, self-congratulatory form of European Union centrism that treats European integration as an unquestionable good, EU institutions as beyond reproach, and European values as universally applicable. Europism dismisses dissent as “populist” or “Eurosceptic,” enforces economic austerity under the guise of “rules-based order,” and often conflates the EU’s geopolitical interests with the interests of humanity. While not genocidal like Ruscism, Europism can be rigid, bureaucratic, and culturally supremacist, demanding that all nations conform to a Brussels-centered vision.
Europism Example: “He was a Europist: every critique of EU migration policy was met with ‘you’re just like the nationalists.’ He couldn’t see the irony—demanding conformity is conformity, no matter the flag.”
