@stux As an American living in hades... *help!* What our government is doing is maddening! The people of Palestine, the poor, the sick who need USAID... too much to name off. I am so physically sick with all this! I never imagined my country would vote in a facist dictator. I am appalled!

@stux Since I co-admin my instance I rarely log in with my personal account but unfortunately you are all too right.I've worked for the US a very long time and literally fought for them but since Agent Orange came in power I don't want to have anything to do with the US anymore.The US is totally f'ed up and Africa is my new home.I'm quite active on the birdsite calling out Elmo's and Drumpf's idiocracy, when not running ops in Africa or Ukraine 🙂

@stux America is a messy bitch. Flawed as hell and built on the stuff of nightmares.But over my lifetime, we’ve at least kept trying to do a little better. Sometimes it’s one step forwards, two steps back, but overall it’s been in the right direction.Until now. And to watch these two monsters destroy everything and alienate all of our allies - just because they can - while the rest of the Republicans cheer them on - it’s devastating.

@stux I have to agree with you… what is happening to my country is heartbreaking and terrifying to me ever since the election 😢I am glad to have found a place where there seems to be enough of us who share the same hope for freedom, fairness and equality for all 🩷Yes we need to band together and stick together throughout this crazy time 🩷

@stux I agree, but there are hundreds of millions of innocent people here who are doing all we can and need the support of the rest of the world.Not for our government, not for our economy either, but for our struggle. And it mostly comes from Black and other POC.We need you to listen to us and help us by lowering barriers at places like the Fediverse. We told you what was coming. We tried to warn you. White Europeans slammed the door. These things are related.

@stux We're already seeing the early stages of realignment as countries like Canada look to diversify trade away from the US (which is saying something given their historically close ties). Most will look at the US as too unpredictable going forward and will create new alliances. America wanted isolationism, now they're going to get it, and suffer as a result.

@stux I used to recommend to people in other countries that they should visit the US and see how hugely wide the variety of people and communities is, here.Now, I would not recommend it for anybody. The current political leadership seems geared towards lining the pockets of a few dozen people at most, and tearing down every semblance of 'for the people, by the people' that still exists.While not without flaws before, it was still my home and foundation - and they want to tear that up.

@stux Thanks, and no worries, you have LOTS of company among LOTS of Americans. Musk is applying the same engineering 'genius' to our nation that leads to the "rapid unscheduled disassembly" of his stupid rockets. We are terrified, but heartened by the resistance at home and abroad. I hope resistance will turn the tide, but the entrenched lunacy supporting that malignant narcissist with dementia--and probably syphilis--is appalling. Status: It IS our circus, but who let those damn monkeys in?!

@stux Despise it all you like. I no longer consider our federal government to be legitimate. It will soon become a bona fide dictatorship.I would maintain that the United States has been the most dangerous country on the planet for *quite some time*. The U.S. has only been at peace for about 20-21 years (!) of its existence, depending on how "peace" is defined. This is not the curriculum vitae of a good neighbor.

@stux I appreciate yhose in foreign countries who refrain from gratuitous anti-Americanism. Refusing to buy anything American-made as long as we are living under a dictatorship actually helps by weakening the regime. If anyone wants to actively help, be ready to help us communicate about what is actually happening in our country because our news media will likely refuse to.

@stux Thank you so much for your kind words and for all you do for us.You actually are part of the resistance in the US. By hosting an anti-fascist server on the Fedi you are allowing people like me to spread notices of protests here which would be suppressed on billionaire platforms. And my primary reason for having the account is another reason I can't use billionaire social media- my book isn't oligarchy friendly.Thank you from all of us fighting in the US! :blobcat_praise:

@stux Too many people have been duped into thinking the US is friendly, since WWII. Yo, why did Germany use US colonialism as a guidebook for how they treated "others"? Why did the US bring over all the top scientists and intelligentsia from Germany at the end of WWII? Or what about the destruction of Africa that seems to never be talked about? I have lived in the US my whole life. They have NEVER been the good guys. The world must unite before it is destroyed.

@stux To stop a fascist takeover, you need a very large number of people pushing back at about the same level: fascist will throw their opponents into the gulag if possible, but you can't reasonably jail 40% of the public. As a variant on a Japanese (?) proverb, the nail that sticks out may get hammered down, but you can't hammer down a hive of angry bees, all in flight and going after you.

@stux for me, it's the final point in a long history of fascism in America.I grew up in places like Cambodia, so I saw first hand what American foreign policy does. It's always been a facade of "we're the good guys", but I still think about the people I met as a kid who suffered under Pol Pot, all so America could get an advantage in a war they'd never win

@stux It was always a global issue. This last USA election was the democrats against all the money in the world. We did the best we could with what we had. I wish more international people would have helped us, in whatever legal way they could have. (Our enemies didn't worry about legalities.) So complaining about the outcome now is the old USA idiom of 'a day late and a dollar short'. That said, it probably wouldn't have stopped the tech bros, who are coming for everyone else next. Be alarmed.

@stux Thank you. We need all the support we can get! 1st, it's not just 'him'. There's a whole organization behind him that must be brought down. 2nd, support those fighting against this as much as you can. We have a big fight ahead of us and this is demoralizing as hell. None of us thought this could happen here, but it has. We need your insights and strengths. 3rd We do not want Canada, Mexico, Greenland, or Panama. That's all him (& Putin). We got nothing to do with that. He's crazy.

@stux no worries! I’m so incredibly grateful to all the countries holding the American oligarchy and their politician stooges’ feet to the fire!! My families have lived here for generations- some were even the first settlers. But I’ve never been a fan of our leadership. We’re only serious about our ideals when it’s convenient and ostentatious. This absolute shit show isn’t so far off of what we’ve always been about.

@stux You should see it from this angle. All our national values abandoned. National treasures and invaluable assets either destroyed outright or run by the dumbest people in the country. The institutions we expect to protect us knuckling under. It’s as if France decided to plow up all its vineyards to put up Bud Light factories.(Worst part: We can’t simply vote these scumbags out. They won’t leave without bloodshed.)#USPol#Trump #Musk #Fascism

@stux agreed but I always gently request that people not forget the decades of horror the US has inflicted on the world- it didn't start with Trump.Genocide in Gaza. Overthrow of democracy in Iran. Assassination of Allende in Chile. Abhu Ghraib. Guantanamo. Death squads in Central America. Bombing of Yemen. Millions dead in Iraq. Creation of ISIS. Vietnam. Hiroshima. Disinformation on covid vaccines targeting Singapore. Grenada. Libya. Somalia. Crushing Arab democracy propping up dictators.
