It's terrifying to see the glee in the eyes of our leaders as they take us up to the gates of hell.
- midoridensha 4y agoIt's exactly what we deserve for choosing these leaders.
- dmichulke 4y agoIf I change my mind after voting for X but I can't change my vote, do I still deserve the consequences?
- choko 4y agoIt's not like we're allowed to choose leaders from the population at large. We are generally stuck voting for the people that run for office. Quite often, there are few choices and none of them are very good.
- lm28469 4y agoNot only the leaders, I'm more terrified of the amount of people on social media cheering for escalation of the war in Ukraine. Anyone mentioning anything other than "send more weapons, kill more people" gets labelled as a russian bot On reddit it's absolutely insane, 90% of commenters are cheering for ww3, asking for hits on the kremlin, preventive nuclear strikes in russia, &c. thousands upon thousands of posts calling "russians" "orcs", I feel like I'm in the lobby of an online call of duty game I used to think people were crazy, how could they slowly walk towards ww1 and ww2, now I see how it happens, deep down we're still dumb monkeys
- rightbyte 4y agoYe I got the same feeling straight from the start. I don't know where all the "war mongers" suddenly came from. Are they paid shills? In real life the amount of people I speak to that are prepared to be nuked over Ukraine border disputes is zero. Also, the discussion climate on Reddit quickly gets sick due to the downvote system and mods purging non-believers.
