    Yes.

    Your internal team sports are not owed consideration by other peoples affected by the actions of the USA on the international stage.

    I think everyone here would agree that most Americans don’t care who the Russian soldier voted for without all that freedom nor could even name the opposition parties let alone their overall platforms in most of the world.

    America is doing this. A purposeful second time. The parties are the internal machinations.

    There is a significant chance of invasion. The USA is dead to me. It’s people made a choice. Cold Vietnam or Guerrilla Austria? Time will tell.

      Yes?

      Most of us fucking hate it. And I fear we may become the next fascist superpower.

      Our internal politics are probably more important than the entirety whatever country you live in. We spend way too much on our military for you not to pay attention.

      I personally will never support any sort of invasion and won’t give a shit if our soldiers die because of it. Wish the rest of the country would get on board.

        Precisely.

        Cultural bullies.

        Your internal politics are relevant to us. As much as Russias and Chinas is. How much do you know or care about their internal politics and opposition when considering their actions as a country or people?

          Ok? What a pointless opinion. Reality is we, as in the whole world, aren’t going to fix my country by being obtuse.

            You need to fix your country, not we.

            We need to prepare for your physical, economic, health, and social aggression under one flag.

              Your right and wrong. If we become as bad as you think, we will very much be a problem for all of the world. We’ll see in 4 years which way we go.

              I refuse to sacrifice my family for the zero chance of saving you.

          Holy shit dude. You deleted your comment but i can still see it. The incredible sense of self importance you project onto me and other US citizens is your own problem.

            I deleted it because I’m not interested in picking a fight on his topic but

            Our internal politics are probably more important than the entirety whatever country you live in. We spend way too much on our military for you not to pay attention.

            Even a “good guy” like you can’t seem to get out of this mindset that Americans are the most important.

            When it comes to global politics I care as much about your slide into fascism as I do about any other. It’s closer to home for me, but these are global trends and caused by you.

            If you all adopted more of a global worldview instead of this exceptionalism and dominance oriented worldview we’d all be better off.

            The main difference in this presidency is just that it’s mask off and former allies are no longer treated like they’re part of the Imperial core. You’ve been doing this to everyone else under both teams.

              Generalizations of a single person based on where they live make for bad assumptions about them. I do not subscribe to American exceptionalism. I did as a child raised in a republican household, but not as an adult.

              I do generally agree though. Most US citizens see themselves as superior to others. I hope the next 4 years help those people see otherwise, but probably not.
