As an American I think I'm going insane? The last 3 weeks have been some of the most anxious and stressed I've ever been.
Trump's first term was nothing like this, there's a feeling of apathy in the air among people and coworkers (I live in a very liberal city in the deep south). Folks around here just seem to be on edge at all times, whether you're pro or anti in a much more divisive way.
There's a strange feeling knowing there's a solid chance we won't make it out of this one. There have been plenty of times in the past where we've had doom and gloom (Trump v1, conservatives and Obama), etc. Nothing ever happens, but this time I'm fairly confident the country I was born into will be dead and gone given the shear destruction being waged against our institutions.
I'm protesting and will continue to do what is needed to ensure 47 isn't the final chapter.
It's because this isn't Trump's term. It's elons. And I know people say that to make fun of them, but it's also said because it's actually true.
Trump is incompetent. Useless. Corrupt. Elon has actual dedication, he's shit at it, but he actually tries. He's not lazy. But he's still corrupt
It's more than Elon's.. There's a lot of crypto billionaires behind the scenes.
Billionaires in general
"Shush your mouth, you are not the president" - xj4856df (i can't remember the characters of his identification)
Protesting is a good start, but I'd say the McMillan TAC-50 is a better choice at this point.
Im normally against gun ownership, but these are not normal times, these are times to use that 2nd amendment in your constitution for what it was created.
I do feel bad for the american citizens suffering the consequences, but the US Empire falling is a net positive for the rest of the world. Ask people from Palestine, Iraq, Vietnam, Korea, Laos, Cambodia, who suffered the US hegemony
Id love for the US to transition to having less influence globally without totally collapsing, but if this is how we do it, so be it.
It's kinda the devil we know situation, if the US steps down, who steps up? Are they going to be better or worse, who knows. I never really bought into the notion that we had to be the world police or that all the evil stuff we did, we did because we had to.
