    I just want to point out Trump does not equal America. But, unfortunately, we kinda suck in other ways and have been fucking over other parts of the world for a while, so… 🤷

      The American people voted that into office, either directly or by not bothering to vote against it.

      America collectively chose this.

      I feel for those that actually wanted different, but until you can get through to your friends, family, and neighbours to fix this mess; America is going to be judged by the actions of the representatives they voted for.

        Well, we are one of the most heavily propagandized countries on the planet. So, uh, wish me luck?

        But, for what it’s worth, I stand with the common citizens of any country. Even Russia. At least in that I don’t bear ill will towards the commoners anywhere.

        America desperately needs class solidarity. But, so does the planet. My two cents anyway.

        There were massive amounts of blatant election interference, and Trump straight up admitted that they rigged the election.

        It’s super disingenuous to say that America collectively chose this.
