Yeah, the system is rotten and appears to be reaching its experimental conclusion. Technofeudal Christofascism wants so badly to hammer the final nail in the coffin of so-called American democracy (which was always a facade for corposlavery...or just straight up slavery).

If the country ever actually gave a shit about true democracy, ranked preference voting and much more representative chambers would have existed. But it's only ever been about wealth and classism, it's just now the facade has been completely torn off to expose the rot for everyone to smell.

Except it becomes relevant when the few are being told they are the reason why their country is the way it is.

It's a brush that paints both aggressors and actual victims in the same light and while I can accept people calling the US a failing nation but I feel a deep resentment towards people who just say "Americans are the problem."

Same people are also the first to tell me I need to do something that's liable to get me killed or worse.

Who will be next one? One day there will be another Republican president.

Yes. Just look at two prominent, potential Republican presidential candidates for the next few decades: dark lord and antichrist lecturer Peter Thiel's boy JD Vance and unhinged, rabid anti-communist Marco Rubio. There are probably others of a similar caliber, but I try to forget.

Might provide a little hope that Americans from within are actually more on your side than his.

Look, I'm sorry for all this stupid horrible shit happening because of the absolutely asinine decisions being made by fascist hopefuls elected by arrogant and ignorant sociopaths. My hate for today's reality runs as deep as yours, but it gets to be accompanied by its best friend, shame, as well.

Recent polls have his approval down to 29%. Which is still way too high, but when people can’t heat their homes this winter, I expect those numbers to drop even further.

You going by fox new polls? Not sure how else you'd find an approval rating that high.

Yeah, a lot of people are still in love with him. They're brainwashed lead-poisoned idiots and fascism lovers. Makes me wish it were easier to emigrate out of the dumpster fire.

Not at all comparible in the least because in this context "men" in this context are also victimizing other men. This is the equivalent of other men ALSO having to be cautious when interacting with other men.

In making this comparison you are just generalizing all Americans and basically saying they get what's coming to them regardless of whether they put the clown in power or they are in fact victims of said clown. All the generalizing does is socially lock them in with the room with their abuser.

A clear majority is not necessarily everyone. 51% constitutes a clear majority.

Everyone under 18 was ineligible to vote and their opinions were immaterial. Convicted felons can also have their voting right privilege revoked.

So, just realize a lot of people are pissed and suffering from within, too.

Historical enemy? So Russian? Glass houses, man.

If only there were some way to choose where to be born. Wasn't given much of an opportunity to flee after the revolutionary war.
