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?
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.
Lol fucking irony.
