Pour one out for America and Ukraine, and the Middle East in general. And Taiwan.
Europe and Asia, you guys better get your shit together, we might be out of this one permanently. Or we might have a very long recovery time spanning decades. Such fucking bullshit.
I know Americans get upset when I say this to them but honestly, I think it’s the time the United States broke up, it’s too big, it’s too powerful, and as soon as someone like him gets in charge everything goes to shit.
If the United States was smaller it wouldn’t matter as much if a random dictator got in charge of a small bit of it.
As an American, I’m in agreement with that in concept. Partition would be a harrowing process though, as people scramble to go where they feel they belong. I’m not sure such a process could happen without another civil war.
I was saying this the last time around. America is too big and the parties are too polarized, the federal government can’t fairly represent all of its constituents at once. At any given time, half of the population is being underrepresented.
For the sake of my mental health I’m currently trying to gaslight myself into thinking that Trump being president isn’t bad. But the truth is there is no realistic way the country is coming back from this. Not in my lifetime at least.
The only hope is that he’s so far gone mentally already that he ends up mostly doddering around the oval office. The problem is he’s already surrounded himself with the most vile people who will have no problem doing terrible things in his name.
Maybe he’ll die and JD Vance will magically regain a conscience.
JD doesn’t have a spine. Due to childhood trauma, he adapted to whatever POS stepdad needed him to be, and still exhibits similar qualities as an adult. Not a good leadership quality in stressful situations, lol.
Recently we had some floodings on Valencia. We are aiming for 300 dead… In a modern society 300 dead because of a flooding, the same dead tool as in 1957 when the same area flooded. Our society is definitely failing.
Just read an article in the guardian by a climate scientist lamenting how many times he and his colleagues presented flood risk data to city officials in Valencia but time and time again they ignored them. Very sad.
LMAO my guy we’re sandwiched between the US their thousands of nuclear warheads and Russia their thousands of nuclear warheads, what do you want me to do?

Czechs and Slovaks managed to do it in a civilised manner only 30 years ago, so it’s not impossible.
American are known to be very civilised and smart
You’re either being sarcastic or you don’t live in the U.S. I’m currently living in Louisiana, and I’m surrounded by racist idiots.
What’s their landmass in comparison to the US?

Well that’s a good point as well it really doesn’t help that the Americans have decided to turn their politics into something so tribal.
That’s more practical than just reforming the election system, apparently. Ugh.
Oldschool Republicans may have a point here too, perhaps less federal power is better.
Yes, it’s now or never.
Who am I kidding, we won’t do anything, of course. Everyone will huddle in his corner.
In Europe particularly the big problem will be Turkey and Italy as usual.

That’s a feature for these people not a bug, he’ll be a hollow shell for his cabinet to pass what they want to pass
God the only hope is that JD doesn’t become president, in name or practice.
At least JD is an unknown quantity with some oddly left leaning positions in his past. We know what we’re getting with Trump and it’s terrible.
JD is a libertarian weirdo.
Yes, but he’s also claimed support for industry-level collective bargaining like Europe has. He’s probably lying, but who knows.

Yeah, no. Our European society is in decline.

Recovery time? Getting our shit together? Europe and Asia won’t survive the climate collapse either. I don’t know why you people talk like this.
Yeah, there is no coming back from this one
Indeed. This election was won by Vladimir Putin.
If there’s one thing Ds and Rs agree on, it’s the need to start a war with China
