    I’m not sure if it’s crazier that statement was made or the fact that I read it and agreed with it before I even thought how crazy of a time this is.

          Sure, if you don’t count the unrest in Iran, the ongoing invasion of Ukraine, the Chinese genocide of the Uyghurs, the Israeli genocide in Gaza, etc etc etc

          Then sure, the world is a rosy and wonderful place other than the US.

            Didn’t say the world is a rosy and wonderful place. But unrest in Iran, Russian imperialism, Chinese suppression and Israel killing Palestinians has sadly been the status quo for the last few decades. I interpreted batshit crazy as very different than it was before. But you’re right, there is a lot more places where life has gotten harder.

      If it makes it any better this has happened repeatedly historically. Though it only really works when the ones you’re protesting against are gormless cowards, so it should be rather effective.
