The government has, TBF. The people can often be wholly against this and myriad other asshole tactics by their "elected" representatives. For the record.
I'm so sick of this stupid American cope.
Over 66% of Americans support the actions of this administration. 1/3 actively voted Republican, another 1/3 decided they didnt really care and were okay with it and decided not to vote, and another 1/3 may have voted democrat.
That 1/3 who are supposedly against this administration thinks that scheduling a biannual costume and funny sign parade is enough resistance and pat each other on the back online with bangers like "i didnt vote for him" and "the majority disapproves".
You are all complicit and the world sees you that way. Go fix your fucking country or shut up.
Extremely easy to tell other people to do something when you wouldn't be the one making the sacrifice.
Well, no, those numbers are wrong. Additionally, a lot of Americans don't vote, because they know that voting doesn't really change anything. The voters choose things all the time, but we don't live in a Democracy, so those votes are openly ignored.
You are correct that we haven't done enough to solve this problem, but the majority of us are against it. Unfortunately, we are too tired, enslaved, and downtrodden to actually be doing anything about it.
So with Kamala Harris as President the US would be in the same position right now?
"The assholes we elected to represent us do not represent us." Or on the other hand, maybe they actually do.
Twice.
I mean I can understand people doing stupid things, but twice ? Nah.
No, they don't. Considering 99.99% of them lie, cheat, and steal the whole damn time (and for multiple decades on their way into said role). Ya know, like appointing Supreme Court "judges" that do their bidding (eg. Bush Jr's 2nd term) and all that.
No, there've been very few politicians that actually represent their constituency, and even the rare few that do, don't tend to do so for nearly long enough.
They do not represent us, they simply shill for their handlers.
Trump made no secrets about what he planned on doing, and the only things he didn't mention was the scope of what he was willing to do. One third of Americans voted for someone who said he would be a dictator for a day, and thought that was okay for their potential president to say and/or do. One third didn't think that was a big enough of a deal to go out and vote against him, essentially saying they were okay with however the election turned out. This is just one example of the horrific statements that were made in public, on the record, that people didn't think was enough to reject him as president. Sure, he lied, and I'm sure Harris did, too. But the truths were enough to damn him if Americans were willing to do so.
He is your president, chosen by the majority of Americans, by action or inaction.
Trump was threatening Canada before getting elected term 2, for example.
Then go ahead and use your second amendment rights to do something about these law breaking fucks you have in leadership positions.
What makes you think I'm not, sweetie? Rustle them jimmies.
I seriously doubt that you are. And yeah, my jimmies are fuckin rustled alright. Your Pedo-in-Chief is doing a great job rustling jimmies all over the globe.
Millions of us disenfranchised poors are just as full of rage as you are, son, if not moreso. Divisions among us is exactly what the parasite class needs to keep it all going, frankly. Maybe take a breath? 🖖🏼
Americans, diverting from the fact they elect fascists.
I see it in what seemed like great USA coworkers, the propaganda makes them think EFF yeah America #1. There is sadly some truth to the stereotype of Americans being dumb. Its not that they aren't intelligent, its that they are easily swayed by flags and fireworks.
Governments in democratic countries are elected by the people and are a mirror of said country.
One third of the USA voted for him knowing he is fascist and cared only about hurting minorities. Another third said we are sitting this one out knowing he is a fascist.
So two thirds of three hundred million people voted for this outcome and you are here defending them.
ASSHOLE.
Aww, are you this naive IRL, or just online?
Where the fuck are you getting two thirds from? 63% of eligible voters voted and just under half of that voted for him. That’s under a third.
In first past the post non voters are voting for the winning side.
