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?

    Americans have been brainwashed pretty hard and worn down over the decades. They’re sick, in debt, surrounded by voices telling them that it’s their fault if they’re poor. A lot of them are living paycheck to paycheck, with little room to take some time to realise how bad the situation is, even less room for maneuvering and organising.
    The system works exactly as intended and what’s happening right now is the culmination of years and years of continuous propaganda.
    And many world leaders and parties are taking notes right now, it’s gonna spread pretty hard and pretty fast.
