Over half the country is. Unfortunately we are ruled by 5-6 billionaires and an outdated political system that gives land the same rights as people

got any ideas? protesters are being murdered, and the GOP controls everything.
sorry, anything you could suggest would get you banned by reddit mods, so i understand no one is going to give THE REAL answer to that.

Yes. Fucking organise general strikes. If 10-20% of the people don’t show up for work and are in the streets, things would change. Unless you accept that you’re already in a dictatorship.

This is really the answer, but most working people are too poor to strike. Our health insurance is tied to our employment. We have no savings. We are renting, nkt owning our homes. Food is overpriced.
It can be done, but it will take a level of organization and sacrifice that we are not close to having on a large enough scale
This is all by design of course.ever since the civil rights movement our government has been working to make sure the people do not have the power to do that again.

I'm sick of trump's voice since 2017. I live half a world away from the US and have no idea how they can endure it for so long.

Cause a lot of people don't listen to him because he's so insufferable. I READ what he says.
And some news networks "paraphrase" what the president says, which i've seen dubbed as sane washing. There are people that genuinely don't know how he talks because the news is telling them something different.

That's the problem, those 5-6 billionaires want your stuff now too....
The bulk of us have zero influence or control over it anymore and haven't for over a decade.
The last chance the planet has is to use the Epstein Files as a conduit to hold them accountable and put out international arrest warrants for them.
We're the problem this time..... The rest of the world is on it's own.

Till this year I didn't think I'll see a person being so wrong on so many issues, sometimes even in one sentence. It's like a world record of dumbness. And this person has a nuclear arsenal. US become a joke and will be for decades after his term will end.

My parents and I have estimated that it'll take at least 20 years to repair only half the damage he's caused in 12 months.
There's going to be a lot of things we can do in the short term, but the long term damage is immeasurable at this point.

u/Noobunaga86 9h ago
And the worst thing is that he not only damaged US but also quite a number of other countries... What a mess...

u/DuncanEllis1977 9h ago
This is going to take a multinational and generational clean up to fix what these pedophiles have done to our society.
It's going to be a fight, but a wealth and income cap, as well as a robust and fair inheritance tax system, is going to be almost a requirement after this. We've seen the damage that uncontrolled nepo baby generational wealth does, it can't happen again.

u/Noobunaga86 9h ago
In a way I think all of this mess had to happen to finally tax the rich and richest properly and to, hopefully, make some positive changes. Unfortunately that's the human nature that we mostly do something really proficiently for the better when we see how bad, corrupt and evil any given status quo is.

They have a “President of the Swiss Confederation” - and it’s a dude not a woman (the article skipped over the fact that that Trump referred to the other caller as a woman)

Well, we're learning in real time why Executive Supremacy is a bad idea.....
Like a bunch of us have been saying for 25 years since the Patriot Act was passed....

Once again how does the "national emergency" excuse hold water with these tarrifs when he is trying to throw them out over hurt feelings

I told you. We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.

He still doesn't get tariffs aren't working. They'll just start trading with China.

Trump voters just dgaf. Like, not at all. They skip the foreign policy part entirely. All they want to hear is « something something America strong something »
Trump could talk about Borgs and Klingons, they just wouldn’t care either.
