The Cold War? Child’s play compared to what lies ahead, according to U.S. historian Robert Kagan. Trump, he says, is leading the world into the most dangerous era since 1945.

    Americans are cowards. Been hearing about defending freedom and the second amendment since before 9/11. Well?? Nothing but excuses and toxicity from Americans, blame everyone else, come up with a million reasons why fighting back is not their job, etc.

    Every American on the right and left is responsible for this shit show they have unleashed on the world. Every one of you to some extent or another.

      Americans are stupid moreso. If you are calling them cowards for not overthrowing their government, I could probably say the same thing about you, and also the dumb part, not realizing you will follow the US. You think your country is special, it’s not, you will fall like dominoes, barring some real leadership in opposition.

      Everyone trusts the wrong people is the problem, and trusting the democratic establishment to run resistance is the problem more than cowardice. Without leadership and organization there is nothing a regular person can do, or any person, that will make a difference, and any act of “bravery” would be throwing your life away.
