“The United States has reached out to Denmark…”

You know, the country the United States wants to invade and forcefully take land from.

America: The dumbest rocks in the sock drawer.

    At the moment, you definitely do. Most of you, and not just Trump voters. Why are you guys so fucking passive? Where are the millions of people protesting on the streets? Where’s the civil disobedience? The strikes? With the attitude the Americans show currently, there will be no elections in 4 years, hell, there might not even be mid-term elections in 2

      The news media here are owned. Those things are happening, but they’re not being reported.

        What about social media? The news media isn’t censoring Lemmy, why aren’t protestors at least sharing photos and videos here to get the word out?

          I’ve gone to the protests. Sadly, millions are not protesting.

          Everybody here is paycheck-to-paycheck. Missing work because you were illegally detained at a protest may be the difference between living in a crappy apartment, or living under a bridge.

          Part of the 2025 playbook is to get trump unlimited unchecked power, and use the military to enforce it domestically. Riots in the streets would certainly do that.

          Right now, trump is doing more harm to his constituents than to his enemies. Republican politicians can barely show their faces in their own distric here. Don’t give them another target to transfer that hate to.

          I don’t know what’s happening everywhere else but I’m joining protests in my area when they pop up. It really isn’t being reported to diminish dissent

            Kudos to you for doing your part. It’s just so disappointing to see how you guys are the minority fighting an uphill battle and how so little support comes from the Democrats or any other powerful organization
