I feel like half the neighbourhood is on fire and everyone is carrying on like everything is normal (lemmy.ca)

The Untied States is literally becoming like nazi Germany and I don't know if people understand that I'm not exaggerating. I legitimately can't tell if people realize that America is now a fascist dictatorship, likely to soon go full on nazi Germany and make it explicitly illegal to be part of certain minority groups, at which point it may be too late for people to leave. I don't know if people around me understand that that's not an exaggeration.

People just keep on going to Disneyland as if it's perfectly safe. It's like watching people go to a store that's literally on fire and nobody is even trying to put it out. It's like people think if the fire department isn't reacting then it isn't happening

and my grandmother thinks it's funny to tell me canada is going to be the 51st state. Yes, so hilarious the fire might soon consume our house too

because it is.

everyone is coping on a "return to normal' (ie. unsustainable ratfucking) when trump finally croaks.

imo, this won't happen. the people who said violence will be required to remove them will require violence to be removed

There's nearly a 0% chance this ends with Trump dying/leaving office. It's been going on for far too long and the country is rotten to the core.

To realistically fix it, you'd need several consecutive good, pro-people governments. And even then it would still be less than likely.

Revolution or war is the only way I see this regime ending. And on the off chance it does end with the normal election process, I forsee the democrats utterly failing to prosecute anyone or make any meaningful change to ensure it doesn't happen again

"return to normal' (..unsustainable ratfucking)
