I am afraid you are right, Phoenix. Here in Europe most if not all MSM are clearly leaned towards the left. Such ignorance is well prepared by them and then inoculated into the public.
A Spanish Defence Forces report this week affirmed that Europe is rapidly loosing importance in the world and not even being able to tackle the most urgent problems, such as terrorism.
BTW, the only leaders that seem able to change this situation were both right wing: German Chancellor Merkel and Elected French President Sarkozy.
I don’t know which word you use in English to describe Europe’s evolution in the last 50 years: dive or plunge?
I suppose you could use 'retrogression', 'devolution', or 'degeneration'. I sometimes use my made up term 'de-Enlightenment', because the Enlightenment led to the Age of Reason and scientific method. What we have now with the denial of truth inherent in political correctness and multi-culturalism is quite the opposite.
