It was the biggest step that could have happened and it was a small first step.

When I’m looking at a boy bleeding out from a racist crowd shooting at him, “A paramedic showed up to the scene instead of skipping work” is the best thing that could have happened but it’s not a moment of celebration yet.

I'm not from the US.My whole fucking point is that a SINGLE country, no matter how influential it is, switching to a slightly less fascistic leadership is nowhere near "huzzah we saved the world" level change, and thinking so highly of yourself (in this case, on the level of a whole nation) is absolutely narcissistic.

Besides, we've seen what the Dems really do 99% of the time, especially without a charismatic leader who brings cohesion. Aside from a select few new faces, most of the old guard will now just sit back and do nothing. I mean, Hakeem Jefferies already announced they won't seek "to get even" (meaning they won't even try to prosecute obvious criminal activities in the government), nor will they attempt to impeach Trump...

We've been fed a lot of propaganda, I think we may be in the "digestion" phase, still have to poop.
