I'm getting fucking sick of this orange fuck lying and causing the United States to fall behind. END THE TARIFFS. If you don't vote you're a part of the problem.

Destructive mindset.

If people have their needs met there is less stress and trauma which also reduce risk for openness to destructive propaganda.

Less war mongering etc

It would’ve been a destructive mindset 10 years ago. Now it is appropriate. Tagging you as FED and moving on.

I agree with your sentiment, but it wont stop the US from falling behind. The damage has been done, the US is not trustworthy anymore, and this will not change just because Trump becomes a lame duck.

We, the other countries in this world, cannot put our trust in another country that might change allegiance every few years. Trump is not a cause, he is a symptom of a deeply rotten, racist and bigoted system that we (we as in the international community) cannot accept as a risk. And we do not expect that you actually fix anything if Trump is gone - the issue with your country is that even when you stated that state and religion are to be separated, you instead installed a civic religion which is just as bad as any other religion on earth, and just as resistant to change as any other fundamentalist cult. The US are a fundamentalist terrorstate, and the current expression of this state might change in the blink of an eye.

We won't engage with that crap if we all can help it.

Edit: i have hit some USians deep in the balls. Fine by me. It is to be expected. American Exceptionalism does not cope well with the Reality that they are the bad guys, and they have been for a long time. Putting up a mirror to their fucked up Nazi-like internal organization based on an racist ideology that they kept conserved after slavery was outlawed is an important thing.

American - can't disagree with any of that. We can't pull a "we're sorry" this time like we did after GWB (some of you are probably too young to remember that).

I am aware. The right wing parties (funded by the same forces that are financing the republicans) are doing their best to fracture europe. Our systems are more resilient, and our populace a lot less brainwashed, which makes me hope that we might resist this storm. But there is no guarantee.

Big difference is that even when Europe fractures, i can't even imagine that we might just drop the institution of the EU as a whole or go to war with each other. For the last part there is absolutely no public support in the european populace, outside of a few countries that are internally fractured already, which might cause civil war in the most tensioned countries.

Edit: on the other hand, i can easily imagine a civil war in the US over the future of the country. The culture wars crap has been forced into the minds of the easily manipulated with limited life experience, and it might take a bloody conflict to put the ghost of the confederacy finally into their unnamed graves where they belong.

1%, they have friends and supporters. Like the ICE staff, and Nazis, and a good number of Lemmy moderators. Those people also need the axe.

I didn't say that. I said that the probability of european countries attacking each other is fucking low, and that is because we have worked together for decades now, which is unprecedented in the history of Europe. There is no real animosity between european states, in contrast to the very real and intense animosity between red and blue states in the US. We are also dependent on interstate trade because of the common marketplace, and every state in this union is very aware about the fact that losing access to this common market will spell economical doom on them. Add this to the fact that the militaries in Europe are currently very much occupied to make sure they do not get crushed by russian aggression, and you have a pretty solid block of states that have no interest into going to war with each other.

I find it worrying that there are approximately 200x more people telling others to vote, than there are people telling others to take any other action on top of voting.

All while it's publicly known that the election is being actively rigged, and would change close to nothing even if it wasn't.

So yeah. If you feel safe doing so, absolutely go vote. But also please consider doing literally anything else aside from that. Even the smallest, slightest protests help.

Organized uprisings removed at least a few dozen totalitarian regimes. So far, voting has removed a grand total of 0. Call me a pessimist, but I'm betting it'll stay at 0 for the foreseeable eternity.

They still cling to the image of the US as the great protector, while the rest of the world has realized that they have to become independent from them to make sure they are safe. An US which changes allegiance on a whim depending on a vote every few years cannot be a stable ally, and much less a protector. We have to be self-sufficient, and also able to protect ourselves from our previous protectors, because they are not to be relied upon - in reality they might be the biggest aggressor we have to defend against because of their megalomania.

I think the message is for the people that can't even bring themselves to vote. Clearly if they aren't voting, they aren't going to do anything involving more effort. So the goal for them is to just get them to fill in some boxes and sign their name.

If this election is truly rigged and we descend further into fascism, then maybe we can work on getting them to go a little further.
