All ideologies are based on ideas from other places. there is no such thing as a completely unique ideology that shares no characteristics with ideologies in other countries.

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.

Yeah i seen those too in Poland, although as you can probably guess, Marx was more often pointed out not as a German but as a Jew.
