Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

LMAO. If the dems did this, the maga cunts would be like "OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!" but daddy dumpy does it, and they're probably rejoicing.
And the good Americans just passively accept. Who is the bigger problem?
Way to victim blame. Only psychopaths and sycophants pull this shit
The victim? Keep telling yourself that unless you are actively trying to stop it.
Yea because fighting your own side is all about fixing it. Go talk to yourself in the mirror when it comes to addressing how not to fix shit.
Your comment “Only psychopaths and sycophants pull this shit” has been living in my head for the past half day. Not because I took it personally but more just how deeply ironic it is. Like you seem more upset at a stranger on the Internet calling out everyday non MAGA Americans for not doing enough and you call that person the psychopath and sycophant, yet not your President who is actually the psychopath and sycophant who is going to directly impact your life in negative ways because you and others have essentially allowed it to fester and grow. Looking at your post history, you do not even seem that mad at the situation around you and this seems to be a common thread. Like sure, you are clearly not loving the station as you see yourself at the victim which is fair as you likely do not vote for Trump, but he really is the epitome of evil and is so clearly dragging your country which I also love, into what is looking like hell for anyone not aligned to his evil views. Maybe my comments has you thinking too about how you can do more as you can be the victim and accept till it is so painful you finally act. Hopefully in a non violent way, but the longer you and the good Americans delay their response the more it will be forced into violence and I rather not see my friends and neighbours how to go through this.
I am sorry I triggered you. My intent is to use shame and shock to wake Americans up who are passive. Time to act. Hope you are taking measures to resist, even in small ways out side of online complaining and the odd ineffective protests. Download the apps that you can scan barcodes and see if you are inadvertently about to support a MAGA business that is undermining you and good people. The tools to address non violently are at your disposal if you choose and the longer they are not used, the more likely violence is coming. Hope this message is processed by you with the intent I am trying to put out, perhaps ineffectively. Feel free to suggest how I can help motivate Americans to join Canada in the boycott.
... Definitely the trump cult? Like yeah, you could argue that Democrats are also a problem, but the 'bigger' problem is pretty fucking obvious
Hard disagree. The. In MAGa Americans are passive AF right now. Sure, there is online complaining and the odd ineffective protest, but actual action to slow / break down MAGA? Nope. The Canadians are doing more than Americans and it was self organized not government. Imagine if Americans joined the MAGA boycott as it would cause chaos and bankruptcies which would get their attention. Money talks especially to the MAGA crowd. So while not all Americans are behaving as bad and as evil as MAGA, they are also not preventing the damage it is doing to themselves and the world either. Only Americans can save themselves and it is not looking good.
Hur dur where's that 2nd amendment now hur dur <-- You rn, typing on the internet from thousands of miles away about how we're not abandoning our lives to get shot by the secret service
But you are ok with others being shot thousands of miles away?
Obviously the ones actually doing the horrible things are the bigger problem.
