Hello, I’m one of these people.
It’s not that dubious. Either Americans find the bravery, strength, courage and determination we all once tought was basic yank DNA inherent in their grandfathers and great grandfathers, and overthrow the corpo billionaire mob in the White House, House & Senate and Supreme Court, or - and this is where it gets selfish
Wait another few years to be liberated by a bunch of weird talking, second guessing wusses from shithole countries to come and do the liberation for you.
That’s the only loop I’m seeing, so you’re welcome for the encouragement.
The time to go to Ed Sheeran concerts, watch the superbowl and make a black friday shopping list is over, you’re under siege and you’re not acting like it. (Tbf, that last part goes for Europe too)
E: Sorry pele, I didn’t see you were the OP, but we established this disagreement before
I’m sorry you’re feeling so down about it.
I did say in a couple of years. And you underestimate the impossible capacity of joint human willpower when we are put with our backs against the wall.
Many in Europe in the early 40’s would have echoed your sentiment if not said it word for word. It was because of contrarian optimists the dam eventually broke, not to mention the natural cycle of totalitarianism, when the total lunatic in charge eventually overcommits their armed forces.
Do not confuse the lack of allegiance to your Orange Pedophile with a lack of care about your people. You may be right that the time for a revolution is past you, but you’re not right to give up. When the time comes, many new alliances will form and come to your aid as you once did for us.
They're doing it whether you fight back or not.
ICE fucked off out of Minnesota after they got enough pushback to be uncomfortable for them. And, yes, there were horrible sacrifices made, but in the end, the ICEholes left.
They don't need excuses to crack down on anything, they're going to do that shit anyway, your pacifism is worthless
Countries never want to act and when they do it is to late. Like now the West should have diversified from America a decade ago but they well just ride this out and nothing well really change.
