I’m an American who has been living abroad for 20 years. I’m shocked, as I watch my home country being dismantled by oligarchs who sold US democracy. And I talk to other Americans and they’re just like “Oh, well, both sides, you know?”
Do y’all not realize what you’ve done? The US literally has no allies now, no rule of law, and no democracy. You’re living in an authoritarian dictatorship now, run by clowns.
How are so many Americans just going on with their lives like normal?
In all countries the general population doesn’t understand anything. Certainly Americans don’t understand. If you’ve been to some countries that have already experienced the problems you mentioned, they might look more familiar to you, but I think Americans may be experiencing them for the first time.
See, my problem with this is how everybody is silently appending “except for me” to this opinion.
