I wish shit would change for the better here but at that changes is for the worst

Change for the better is not going to just fall into your lap.

I’ve been doing everything I can to push for positive change here. I help campaign for meaningful reforms and change. I protest the horrors that are going on here and against the injustices that are happening.

Think I deserve to complain for a minute about the near constant backsliding going on here.

We did in 2020.

But then the Idiot Cult was like "No, more stupid bull shit."

Not sure why you're singling out Trump. Americans can't help but invade other countries in general, regardless of colour of capitalists in charge.

If they can't even achieve stopping Trump, there's no hope they'll ever stop anyone.

Still not sure what makes Trump special. He didn't even bomb any Nobel Peace Prize recipients [1].

They literally just kidnapped one of the most anti Trump American.

What we need is international solidarity against the US in the form of international sanctions.

The US has a long history of removing openly anti-capitalist Central and South American leaders.

[–] quick_snail@feddit.nl 1 points 2 months ago

Yes. And they're also kidnappings anti trump North Americans too. See ICE.
