  • No one rational expects you or any other US citizen to grab guns.

    We get that you personally, voted.

    Unfortunately though, you and other US citizens like you are going to have to risk those jobs and that healthcare and go into a sustained national shutdown. Here is what is expected; the US citizens start doing something to fix this problem.

    It’s unfortunate because those you need to lead such things and give direction, like Democrat reps, popular personalities, past presidents, none want to step up to the plate and lead it. The truth is, the administration really does reflect the nation in so many ways. A third care, a third don’t and most of that third along with the third that support are lazy, selfish people.

    But no, I for one certainly don’t expect you to go out and battle ICE et al with your firearms. That’s the hardest, most awful way. The easiest was voting, the next now is a peaceful shutdown to get the houses to act. Yes it’ll be hard and yes, it’s easy for us not having to do it to say it but you’ve seen already how some nations like the French react to it, we’d be doing the same.

    You’re the only ones can do it too, none of us can help here because he was elected and we couldn’t anyway. If I lived there, in your shoes, I’d start with writing your nearest Dem reps and any influential people you can to start leading it. That’s something.




  • changing the voting system

    You can’t do that until you get the people who can and will do that in power. Logically for the US, the way its voting system is structured and how people vote, the only way to do that is primary out the bad within one of the parties. Again, logic tells us which party that is.

    Personally I think the only way out of this is a peaceful sustained shutdown by the people or by some miracle it implodes, but the voting system won’t be changed until there are enough people in power willing to do it.

    Edit: removed an assumptive paragraph in the middle, I should have paid more attention to your last.


  • You’re onto it. You remember.

    It’s really frustrating to see this. I remember some people getting really savaged by Americans for telling them to do these things.

    Admittedly there were a few among the Americans awake to what was happening as well, but most of it was ‘it can’t happen’, ‘mind your own business it’s our right not to vote’ and ‘our institutions would protect us from that’.

    Yep.

    Edit: and this beauty; ‘we have the 2nd Amendment…’





  • I agree. That’s where they make the biggest mistakes; not participating in the primaries and the elections which appoint local and state officials.

    Its the same for both the centrists and the further left; they have this pitched battle with each other and whine about the final candidate who isn’t changing, but they did nothing about that earlier.

    They’ll tell you the system is rigged, yet they’ll watch droves of Republicans do just this and get their horrible people in.

    They’ve been doing this shit for years too, that and elect lunatics.





  • Good on you for having the spine here

    They cause this themselves by refusing to vote or voting in lunatics for years and years, among the most pissweak of excuses for their fall.

    They continue to blame every single institution for that fall.

    Now, they want to run and leave it collapse. Will they run again when the US tries to do it in their new country? None of us got the opportunity to vote in that election.

    Fuck the downvotes you get, they hate the mirror. They could still fix this and take their country back if they went through some hardship on a general strike but nup, see ya.

    They can’t take responsibility though. You can see it through these replies.

    Edit: second paragraph
