Don’t blame me, I didn’t vote for that orange shit stain.
It’s unpopular with those living in the US as well.
Just one question.
We’re pretty dumb and ignorant. Our education system is awful and incredibly inequitable (funded by local property tax so only nice areas have adequately funded schools). I recently read that like half the country reads below a 6th grade level. And we have an overwhelming level of right wing disinformation coming from “news” outlets like FOX, OAN, etc.
Even with all that, about 1/3 of the country loves Trump like he’s a god, 1/3 hates him like he’s the devil and 1/3 is completely tuned out of politics. Shit is about to get real bad here and no one will be able to ignore the economic disaster so I think those numbers will change in the next few months.
Half of adults reat at or below the 6th grade level.
That doesn’t mean they don’t have an expansive vocabulary, it means they can infer but not abstract.
So, it’s bad if my daughter suffers they may ibfer from their own suffering, but women in general and possibly ways their daughter may suffer elude them.
I mean… As an American, that’s certainly a valid question. The short answer is that the modern American political two-party system has become the biggest shitshow in American history. For a longer explanation, I saw a video on a Canadian PeerTube instance that really explains the situation better than I could.
- voter apathy
- he didn’t win by as many votes as the largest election against him (2020)
- he was never popular among all people, but is among voting people
- electoral college doesn’t make sense
We have a broken election system here in the states, but not a popular president.
And what passes for the lefty party ran with genocide on their back and couldnt pull that off.
The Democratic Party is at best center-right but with their enablement of genocide and crack down on protesters they are probably just as fascist as Republicans.
continuing to claim this in the face of what’s currently occurring in the US is not simply naive, it’s downright idiotic
Is it because some people are more equal than others?
Tf are you on about?
Don’t get me wrong the democratic party is shit, but I don’t recall paramilitary thugs dragging people off the streets and disappearing them under Biden or Obama.
The Republican Party has always been worse, but it shouldn’t be the yardstick we judge the Democratic Party by. Otherwise the worse the Republican Party gets overtime the worse the Democratic Party will get too, since the only requirement will be for them to be better than the Republicans and not to be actually good.
I dont disagree with that, but you said “probably just as fascist as republicans” which is obviously not true as, again, only one party is using paramilitary violence to target unwanted groups and political opponents.
Republicans however also: deport people with a legal right to be in the country, including citizens, without due process. Want to destroy all progress made on issues affecting the LGBTQ+ community. Wish to reduce women’s rights, some including voting rights. Want to abolish the separation between church and state.
Even if there is a close resemblance between the two parties on Gaza, but there are plenty of other issues where they are still incomparable, and ignoring these differences and calling both parties equally bad does not help.
And the voters who support Palestine sure did a good job keeping the worst of two options out.
Ohhh well, at this rate the Palestinian question, likely won’t be an issue next election.
I hate living in the headlines of Plague Inc.
How the fuck is Russia going UP?
Europe and North America are only 13% of the world population. Most of the rest of the world view the war in Ukraine differently, and are more concerned with wars elsewhere like in Palestine where the West is “the bad guy”.
Yes it certainly does seem that no one cares about any other thing than crushing the west at the moment. Which won’t save any of the Muslims in China! It will not save anyone in Pakistan. There are actually several other decades long genocides going on at the moment but if you ask anybody they have no idea.
Tankies aren’t spreading their crap for nothing lol
Ehh, good point. Humorously, a lot of those Tankies are Yankees. Which I will never understand. Setting fire to your own house to please your neighbor who doesn’t give a shit about you?
Let’s coin a new word. YankTank? TankYank?
yankies? as opposed to yankees
That does make the most sense but I feel you’d be fending off people trying to correct your spelling. YankieTank? It needs to be obvious on first glance.
TankieYankie sounds extra mocking…?
TankieYanking? Hehehe
Uh… The US has been globally unpopular for as long as I’ve been alive.
Yes, but not as much as they are now. That really says something.
