Iโm german and I watch in real time how a fascist Gouvernement is taking over the US.
Sometimes I feel like I take crazy pills, when a friend of mine assures me that Donald Trump is just a business man who wants to help the country. Or when a good friend of mine who I considered sane and intelligent until this moment sends me a link to a J. D. Vance interview and tells me what a very smart guy this is.
Itโs infuriating. And lonely. I think every American against this should be allowed to speak openly and participate. We have to work together, or we have lost already.
Lonely is right.
The amount of respect that I've lost for my family over the past decade is immeasurable. They taught me right from wrong, and now they're surprised that I think differently from them. My brother is the only one I'm still close with; everyone else I've been keeping at increasingly large distances. I used to call Mom almost every day, and now I'm lucky if I call her once a week.
Honestly I can very much relate. Both my parents are boomers and lifelong conservatives. Our relationships have always been strained but I'm questioning if I should or can even keep contact with them at this point. I'm revolted that they're both Trump voters and supporters.
