America is becoming the most vile country on the planet.
You fucking idiots voted in an orange muppet rapist who’s being controlled by a Russian dictator while sending secret communications between a drunk ex showman who now runs the military.
You get what you voted for. Enjoy having your kids in blueberry fields and coal mines to continue building wealth for the rich for penny’s.
Pathetic. America is pathetic.
Meanwhile, those of us that most definitely did NOT vote for this are faced with new horrors every day, right here in our own country. It’s just a blast watching our former allies shutting the door and giving the entire population the finger when we are facing a crisis like this. I have to wonder, was this what it was like during the Nazi’s rise to power? Did other nations turn a blind eye and say “not my problem”? Now the formerly so called leader of the free world has been taken down by the oligarchs and so many countries and people are saying good luck, get fucked. I guess it’s fine to overthrow some back water country in the name of “democracy” but the US can rot right? Not like this will have any impact on global relations or climate change, right?
To be clear, I’m not attacking you, I’m just frustrated to see this happening around me and seeing so little support for the people here that want absolutely nothing to do with it. There are a lot of people here that don’t deserve what’s coming, that have voted, campaigned, protested and argued against it, and I really wish people took the time to understand that nuance to not just this situation, but everything.
To those that lend encouragement and support to anyone standing against this, thank you, whole heartedly, because we absolutely need it.
It’s easier to roll into an underdeveloped nation than into the nation with the biggest military (and economy I think?) in the world!
Best we can do from the outside right now is help you guys help yourselves, by showing you that the last choice was a bad one so you may make a better choice next time. At least that’s all we can do officially and publicly.
I doubt there will be a true next time. Trump own all of the swing states which was real weird. It will be done on a larger scale next time. The only way we will get out of this is blood.
I’m hoping some of the other nations will provide us a way to escape by accepting those of us that wish to leave. I fully intend to try to get my family out if the worst comes to pass. As a white man with a black wife and a biracial son, I’m frankly terrified of all the white supremacy normalization going on. I’m just not sure what countries would be willing to have us. I’m neither rich nor particularly talented, but I’m willing to learn and work.
Also, there was a shit ton of shenanigans going on during the last election. Other countries boycotting our products will absolutely help us. If it costs the 1% money, he will be taken down a notch. The oligarchs are in this for the money after all.
Summary of what I understood:
- Florida work force: 27% born in foreign countries
- Florida farm workers: 60% born in foreign countries
- Florida state: eager to persecute immigrants
Proposal:
- allow child labour for unlimited hours, if home schooled or distance learning
- allow 30 hours per week during study sessions
- allow 6 days of consecutive work
- allow work during school hours
- allow early and late work, even if school next day
- allow more than 8 hours per day, even if school next day
That seems 19th century stuff. Back then, in the bad old times, anarchists shot politcians and workers had street battles with cops over this kind of minor issues.
*labor. Not lab our.
