These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,… whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.
People outside the US have always been terrified of what the US president might do. Imagine if China had military bases all over the world.
Valid take. The military industrial complex is a terrifying ordeal.
We haven’t been
We might be living the final moments of not being terrified what the US President is going to do
Come on dude… I live with that since I can understand the world, US can introduce democracy to my country in any moment doesn’t matter who is the fucking president.
This isn’t a shower thought. This is propaganda.
Chilling and saying hi to your neighbour is propaganda??
No, the title is. Pure fearmongering.
Explain like I’m five.
Man say thing to make you scared for no reason.
And the thing is: Trump is not a clever man. In fact, he’s blantantly, obviously, ferociously stupid. He didn’t just appear out of nowhere. The rest of us have been watching this dog eat grass for the last 50 years.
Good! It’s a shame you were asleep the last four years!
I understand that liberal YTs have nothing to fear.
But genocide Joe has been pushing genocide for more than a year.
You’ve convinced me. I won’t vote for Joe Biden today.
It’s a little funny to see Americans saying “genocide joe” like if the USA endorsing a genocide was a temporal thing and not the freaking constant of the last century
Hey! The US has been genociding people way longer than that. Give them some credit.
The best part will be if we wins, those in power will just sit around with their thumbs up their butts waiting for fascism to take over on Jan. 20th.
Yeah, it’s like, “You obviously know that he is a clear and present danger this time around, shouldn’t you do something about it? Tradition and democracy are going to be cast aside if he comes to power, why wait for that to happen for the worse?” Biden needs to Seal Team Six Trump/Vance before they ever come close to taking power, consequences be damned, at least that would force the Supreme Court to step in and say that, No, the President can’t have political opponents assassinated, it would still be a constructive ruling for democracy.
The first time Trump got elected, they could maybe have been forgiven. It was bad then, but I think people assumed that he would somehow “fall in line” or just take a back seat while the adults ran the show or mature or whatever, but I think it’s pretty clear that it’s going to be a total shitshow this time around.
The first time he was elected, it was still inexcusable to vote for a known racist, rapist asshole, but nobody thought he’d actually make a serious effort to destroy democracy. It’s been a well-known fact ever since.
American propaganda is wild.
Its mostly just the echo chamber. But its quite sad in here for sure.
Edit: Hilarious that you were being upvoted until my comment gave more context to what you meant. Mindless lemmings.
Not if you’re a wage earner, sadly.
Also, vote if you haven’t yet.
Yep, already dropped of my mail-in ballot in person and received an email from the county election supervisor that my vote counted 🤠
I voted, but since I’m not in a swing state I wouldn’t go so far as to say my vote counted.
House and Senate matter far more than the presidency, without them the president has very little influence on policy with exception of veto power.
With 2/3 control, the president wouldn’t even have veto power and would be entirely powerless.
Vote for your congressional representation! This is the one day that the little guys can determine the policy direction of the country.
I voted mostly for my local elections. Those are sometimes determined by a dozen votes and can have a huge impact on day to day life.
Iowa wasn’t considered a swing state till the Selzer Poll. Thank you for helping to build consensus!
People around the world already live in terror of what USA government may do to them
Exactly. OP is most privileged take, most useless “allies”.
Then you’re showing your privilege, and clearly haven’t seen the thousands of images and videos of shredded children coming out of Palestine for the past year.
Yeah, and I plan to vote against Netanyahu’s buddy who keeps saying he should do “whatever it takes to finish the job”. Stop pretending that a Trump presidency will be better for Palestine. Literally everyone who actually cares about Palestinians in good faith knows that a vote for Harris is a vote for harm reduction.
You’re showing your privilege here by admitting you aren’t scared of Trump’s plans, which involves oppressing millions of people, because you’re confident you’re not one of the groups he plans to oppress.
Cope lol. Harris has consistently shown her message to be “fuck Palestine”. You call it a harm reduction, yet how are you going to explain the harm already done, and the point of harm reduction? Is Israel going to genocide less-lightly? Kill all the people in Palestine a little bit slower? What’s the difference in the end, there is absolutely none.
Harris polls this shittily because of Palestine and going against what people want. That’s why suddenly 2 days before the election the messaging changed to “we love Palestine we will end the war really quickly!”.
The reality is you cannot run a campaign on “but Trump worse!”. You need something that makes you different, you need policy. That’s why Kamala’s CNN Town Hall was such a huge failure - the only thing she talked about is how she isn’t Trump. Acting as if “people are stupid if they don’t vote, vote 3rd party or vote Trump” is a valid statement only shows the blindness of what’s actually happening. And what’s happening is if you only care about Palestine / Middle East, both candidates will happily stand by and letting it burn.
Remember, this all could stop immediately using one phone call to Netanyahu. We know that, because things like this stopped immediately after such phonecalls. But there needs to be a political will to do that, and there is none right now, or in the future.
A blank check is a blank check. Doesn’t matter if it comes from someone who claims they do it reluctantly, or someone who does it enthusiastically.
Okay, so if your view is that Democrats and Republicans are the same on this issue, then you’re going to need to vote based on something other than this issue.
So, aside from Gaza which you believe they are equal on, why do you prefer Trump over Harris? Do you support his campaign promises over her’s?
And if that is the only point worth voting for then so be it, but pretty sure there are vastly different stances on other things that should change your mind.
I vote based on their records. Not their promises. Their actual policies are remarkably similar.
Then stfu with your timely virtue signaling and stop acting like you’re going to do anything that might even remotely move us in the right direction. Those children don’t give a shit about your Internet posts and you aren’t helping them by ruining the lives of our own too. You’re just an idiot or a plant and both are the same thing
The still living Palestinian children constantly go online to thank people for their vocal support, and the PFLP has asked Americans to boycott the Dems and GOP.
Ok good job, you’re a hero
I’ll take the one whose “record” doesn’t include felony convictions.
You have to qualify it with “convictions,” because Harris illegally withheld evidence from defendants in multiple instances, and has openly declared her intent to continue arming the genocide (which is a felony).
I’m not sure ‘I’m voting for the person who got away with it’ is a strong endorsement.
“I’m voting for rapist” is a pretty shit message.
Honestly it doesn’t matter who wins the election. Bam I said it.
Well it does technically matter but I don’t think it is worth getting stressed about. Your vote is just a small part in the process. If something bad happens you can deal with it then.
Of the Dems win and they don’t put a boot on the neck of this fascist movement it will take over eventually.
Us on the left need to stop depending on a government whose military is overwhelmingly in support of Trump. We already know nearly all police are the same fascists (not to mention uvalde)
Arm yourself and train your family. Be silently ready for anything, don’t make yourself a target
Top brass seem to swing the other way though. These are generations that tangled with Russia and china for decades now. They see much more behind the curtain than others do.
If the US military was overwhelmingly in support of Trump Jan 6 would have gone completely differently.
This ^
But that would require them to reign in the very same companies that sponsor them. One can hope, but it seems unlikely.
It’s a cult of personality. Jack Smith and the Judiciary just needs to step on the gas as soon as the election is called for Harris, get him gone. It’ll be interesting to see where the GOP goes from there, but MAGA will be dead. Would anyone else be happy with your normal everyday NeoCons running the GOP again?
Companies don’t want fascism, they just want tax breaks. Civil war and dictatorships are bad for business.
Tell that to Volkswagen, BMW, Messerschmitt, Audi, Deutsche Bank… And all these guys: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_companies_involved_in_the_Holocaust
Fascism is very good for businesses. They squash dissent like unions and the publics voice. Then only the billionaire class will have a voice.
Billionaires in China have been disappeared before. There’s only the head of state that matters in fascism.
Only the chosen few businesses, and entirely at the whims of the dictator. Your CEO pisses off the leader, your business goes bye bye.
Fascists weren’t bad for companies like VW, BMW, and Hugo Boss.
Which fascist movement? american or israel?
Y’all queda

I like your optimism but I think he was just the test run.
