Why can’t US media just say something is happening? It’s always an alarm being raised or a “first step towards” or whatever else and never “we are here and have been here for a while and here’s more about it.”

ICE could show up with actual Gestapo uniforms and they could hang swastikas from the White House and that fucking country would go “oh no, we’re really teetering at the top of a slippery slope!”

And se will need to work on fixing that problem, yes. We’re also not “next” as we’re actively dealing with a conservative government right now that our moronic population believes is centerist just because they are technically between the left and the far-right. I’m not going to ask for or expect anyone else’s help, though, so you can take this nonsense “gotcha” and shove it way up your behind.

And see here’s the thing about the US falling, we don’t need to save you to protect ourselves, we just need to disconnect from that sinking ship. Sure we could try to pull this dead weight along with us but we could also just cut you loose to drown on your own while taking care of ourselves. If you’d even make a slight attempt to tread water then fine, but as it stands a lot of you are just bitching and demanding we carry you after you sunk the boat in the first place.

Not our fucking job to fix the US’s stupid problem. Land of the brave clearly don’t think it’s that big a deal so they’re on their own while we work out to take care of ourselves. Unfortunately there is still inaction, yes, but the US needs to actually do something about this instead of asking why no one is helping the country that actively fucked them over for decades upon decades.
