I get the impression that a lot of Americans think that Trump merely ruffled some feathers on the international scene, and that a charm offensive will set things right once he's gone.

From the outside, we watched you elect Trump twice, and have no reason to believe that the GOP won't finish what he started. We've seen that Americans need to be pushed to the absolute brink before leaning into civic duty and voting. That's fine and well, except for the fact that they're a superpower, and the rest of the planet can suffer mightily, while Americans put in suboptimal effort into holding their government accountable.

Until proven otherwise, the United States is always one election cycle away of picking up right where the Trump regime left off.

The above is the undercurrent of my thoughts when getting into the profound fuckover inflicted on my country, while the entirety of the GOP went along with it gleefully.

    Absolutely worthy of an upvote, as it is indeed unpopular.

    As it turns out, Andy has no immunity to the Find Out part. He is who and what he is, and the rest is just attempts at damage control.

    Punt Andy, be responsive to the wants and needs of the user base, and I'll sign right up again.

    Explain to me what makes me a tankie other than the fact that I find it annoying how piefed people are obsessed with tankies?

    A close reading of my comments will show that my claim is that you basically simp for tankies, not that you are a tankie. But it's clear why a lot of people believe you are a tankie.

    For an explanation of what I mean, just read with an open mind, as you're scouring my previous comments for a gotcha of some sort.

  • Boycott Garmin (piefed.world)
     

    The state of Kansas has openly attacked the Trans community by fucking with the validity of their driver's licenses.

    Garmin is based out of Olathe, Kansas.

    If you're into fitness, but not into crimes against humanity, find a company that isn't based in Kansas, and outside the USA as able.
