Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Everyone should just give up on america at this point. Its a rotten place that wont reform for the good. Its people are so docile that they wont do anything unless you turn off their porn. Ameircans found out about epstein class and did nothing about it. Their protests are just peaceful parades that dont do anything. Theyre general strikes are just 1 hour long. Its a horrible country which daily terrorizes other countries for fun and its population is so depressed that they dont give a shit about any of that and they dont even care whats happening to each other and they dont care if pedophiles are ruling over them, they dont care about being lied to since they where born, theyd rather go to brunch or just watch some netflix garbage. Maybe im being pessimistic, but idk i think im being realistic and i feel justifies having this kind of attitude towards the empire and the people who live in it.

I love it when people have no hope for me, it really makes me feel motivated. (I don't identify with the US as an entity at all, but I do live here and don't have somewhere else to go.)

I know this isn't about me personally, but it's demoralizing to read stuff like this. I could easily guess where some of it's coming from. The US is in the middle of another baby-killing operation. So I try to just not say anything on the subject in general. Time and place, you know. But I don't come on lemmygrad to read about how one region or another is doomed. If you can't have hope for US citizens, then at least muster some hope for the indigenous nations who still have to contend with its occupation in the region.

I wouldn't blame you if you feel no sympathy for me, but don't tell me to give up. That's a step too far.
