You may have better luck with solidarity when you don't elect a Pedo who has been shitting on the rest of the world... FOR A SECOND FUCKING TIME

You've been downvoted but I'm with you on this.

It was almost forgivable when the us population voted that fat cunt in the first time. Yeah, ok, the obese orange buffoon was an idiot, but most of the evil shit wasn't common knowledge.
However when they did it the second time it showed that -in general- the average american are either stupid, evil, or so complacent that they just don't give a shit about anything or anybody until it affects themselves personally.

That kiddie fiddling tub of corrupt gonorrhoea and the rest of the corrupt disgusting family are fucking things up for the whole world now. All just to steal as money as they can and distract from the Epstein files.

But the US population didn't vote for Trump either time. Both times, a minority of the population voted for him. Certain people need to be held accountable for the events that led up to that, and events that have happened since, and we need to get serious as a whole population about antifascist education. But the people who fight hardest against these events in the whole world, and certainly harder than any hypocritical Europeans (Who still allow all of their governments to remain economically and politically allied with us - Not a single euro government has yet rejected the role of vassal dog), are in fact also domestic Americans.

So when you say "they" in reference to Americans you need to be more specific about what you mean. Because some of us are being straight-up disappeared to South American torture prisons for our fight against that while all this keyboard warrior charlitan you're replying to has to say about it is "Sure, on weekends".

"But the US population didn't vote for Trump either time."
I've heard this one before. The us is either a democracy and the fat orange cunt is the president by that vote. Or he's not and you guys should be up in arms protesting about it.
The rest of the world ain't seeing many protests.

"Both times, a minority of the population voted for him."
Don't care. Donvict Drumpf is still in the Whitehouse fucking things up for the whole world with little or few large protests about it.

"Certain people need to be held accountable for the events that led up to that",
Yes. But that will not happen. Ever.
If you guys are so complacent when a piece of scum shits all over your constitution. Rips down your Whitehouse. Builds a fucking MMA stadium on the front garden. And talks about being president for life then you're not going to do fuck all about all the accomplises and enablers after he's finally dead.

"and events that have happened since, and we need to get serious as a whole population about antifascist education."
Again. Won't happen. Too complacent.

"some of us are being straight-up disappeared to South American torture prisons f"
I know. I saw the news about it and I -stupidly- thought "oh wow, this is it. This is what they need to get things moving" but tumbleweeds happened instead. Then the Renee Good and Alex Pretti murders happened and I thought "this is it etc etc etc" , and more tumbleweeds.

""Sure, on weekends..."
Isn't that correct? If memory serves then the only meaningful protests after all this happened at weekends. And there were, what, two of them? Three?

The thing is the 'keyboard warrior' was correct. And, like me, is exasperated and annoyed by the average americans apparent lack of effort in all this.
Instead of downvoting, attacking, and alienating them then try agreeing and bringing your point of view in a gentler way.
