That’s just not true. You can call your representatives and ask them to, you know, represent you. You can organize or participate in protests, boycotts, and mutual aid programs. You can have tough conversations with the conservatives in your life that are also having a bad time now. Hell, if you truly feel this powerless in your own country, you can stash cash, get your documents together, and flee if you really want.
I’m an American. I acknowledge that this situation sucks. But I’m not throwing my hands up and saying, “Ho hum. Nothing i can do until 2028, when I might get to vote for the lesser of two evils again…” Like, you do need to try. Democracy is falling apart because a third of the country figures their political actions don’t matter, so they don’t try.
That is a bizarre intention to project on someone you don’t know. I assure you, I can’t wait until Americans stop stepping on their own balls. You guys are due for a break.
What is it about the American psyche that cannot help but read criticism as malicious?
I lived in the US briefly, and work with several Americans- and, man, if “immediate, inordinately hostile defensive posture toward the suggestion they’re wrong/have made a mistake” isn’t the single clearest through-line…
It’s… not shocking that Trump and MAGA are running the show.
What is it about the online doom spreading troll psyche that cannot help but expect people to believe them when they contradict thousands of things written in public?
Oh, it’s okay. Give him a break. He’s just a cute, weird little guy dealing with the guilt over his own inaction in the face of fascism. He likes to follow me around. I personally throw him an upvote whenever I notice, he’s desperate to be seen white knighting for equally white liberals. Happy to help out.
Yeah, the upvotes I get are definitely from you being sarcastic and definitely not from a community that has also noticed what a piece of shit you are. Thank “you” for sometimes giving me several upvotes though.
Yet, that guy you are replying to is not wrong
He’s a piece of shit kicking people while they are down. We have no options yet this dip shit pretends all we have to do is just try.

All you have to do is literally try.
Yes I just said this is the lie you’d have us believe. In the meantime you’re loving all this suffering and that it will get worse.

Thing is, nobody else can do it for you.
Your comment history is public. Literally any amount of reading it would lead someone to understand you harbor ill will.

Okay, you keep doing what you’re doing. I’m sure it will be very effective.

Delusional at best. But I know you don’t actually believe that. You intend harm. It’s obvious, all anyone needs to do is glance at your profile.
I “intend” to shame, sure.
You’re the ones ensuring no end in sight to the harm.
Upvoted, though, you big charmer. Smooches.

Very welcome.
Meanwhile my black ass is eating popcorn watching two white liberals argue over stupidity.
Not white but I agree that we are acting MIGHTY white.
At this point I might be MORE offended by the “liberal” label.
