It wasn't meant as a personal attack against you Jesus Christ.
- mrguyorama 1y agoSorry, I wasn't trying to attack you either. I meant the royal "you" In both Germany and the USSR, a lot of people died making zero progress (and maybe even negative progress in some ways) liberating their country. I just think, as long as Trump's rhetoric and claimed policy is popular, there's no "resistance" possible. Americans want this crap. They'll keep voting that way until they get it as hard as possible. So many people are insisting that people like me have to rise up and take back our country, ignoring that our country wants this and chose this, multiple times. McCarthyism worked. It suppressed speech and activity, and basically eliminated socialism in the US for a century. History is rhyming. I don't have a solution.
- westmeal 1y agoMe neither and I share your concern. That being said it's my opinion this popularity is propped up by algorithms that tend to push people towards this type of dumb shit. If there was a way to get through to these misguided idiots I think this country may have a shot at not being a complete hellhole. Is it idealistic and naive? Maybe. Just my two cents y'know.
