  • The entire US government is corrupt at this point. Both sides back down as soon as their money is threatened and republicans cower in fear every time they second guess their glorious leader. But to answer your question, the Supreme Court of the United States decided Trump can do whatever he wants and they will only fight him when they need to pretend they are impartial. They gave Trump the power over tariffs about a month before his “liberation day.”

    At the end of the day it really comes down to the fact that nobody in the entire government of the US has the balls to tell the big baby in charge “no.” And even when they do they only do it to win political points so they look good for the next election.









  • I’m an American and I’m kinda tired of hearing my countrymen apologize and say they are embarrassed. Were over a year into this and waaaay past the time to say that kinda shit. We shouldn’t be embarrassed, we should feel ashamed and angry. And we shouldn’t apologize, we should be actively finding ways to make a change no matter how small.

    I know there are plenty of other Americans that probably lurk on communities like this so I’m mostly saying this to them. And the only reason I’m saying this is because about half the time I see other Americans apologize and say how embarassed they are it often seems like it’s a way to say “see? I’m one of the good ones.” None of us are the “good ones” anymore unless you are actively putting in the work. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t vote for him because he’s still the president. People have died, continue to die, and will die in the future because of this man and he’s doing all of it in our name. If Trump actually causes a global conflict with his bullshit we will not be blameless when the dust settles and our country will have to pay for this regardless of who you voted for.



  • I’m so tired of this bullshit response. It’s like watching sports and saying what you’d do in that situation when you have no idea what you are talking about. What the fuck are they supposed to do? Anything they do besides protest will put their lives immediately in danger and they could potentially die. Believe it or not, most people don’t want to die. That’s kinda the whole point of these protests. None of us want to die or get kidnapped.

    I get it, we are all angry and this is all bullshit. But I’m so tired of people saying “yeah but I’d fight back and you should too” while most never even go to protests. Stop shaming people for not doing what you want to see them do with the buffer of your phone screen. You are basically saying “yeah but why didn’t you die for them?” While you sit on the fucking toilet.

    It’s weird but that’s, like, the only thing I’m good at remembering. I’ve pretty much remembered the name of everyone that has told me but if you ask me why I haven’t taken out the trash yet it will be “sorry, I forgot” for about half the day and still might forget to do it.
