    USAmerican politics really seeps into every nook and cranny on the goddamn web. I’d much rather read about something happening in the rest of America than USAmerica. It gets really annoying…

      Considering America’s choices and influence impact every country on earth, (positive or negative), is it really a surprise?

      It’s because we have the least stable democracy and the most economic influence out of any country in the world

      Like it or not, these guys can duck up the entire world pretty badly. I can’t afford to ignore it, even if I don’t live anywhere near the U.S.

        What are you going to do with the knowledge of them fucking up their economy and voting for a talking orange? What’s that knowledge worth? Are you going to pull your money out of all the AMZN stocks you bought? Send a strongly worded letter to Kamala for not being more radical? Fly across the sea to assassinate an upcoming dictator?

            Tell me what you’re going to do with the daily updates on the election or some other dumb shit happening in the USA. I’m genuinely curious.

              I’m going to understand that this is a pretty consequential election and Americans are going to want to talk about it?

          Talking about it would be enough.

          It would find it’s way to a citizen that could make a difference.

          There is a reason most modern dictatorships restrict access to the the Internet.

          No yeah even most people that live here can’t do shit about it. It’s basically celebrity shit, to most people, it’s just that they’re obviously going to removed about it because it maybe tenuously has an effect on their lives. We may be cooked

      Can’t wait for this to be over. In the meantime I should set up some keyword filters in my Lemmy client

      I live here. I want Trumpet to lose this election so bad. Mostly because if he is elected, I do think there is a real danger of him abusing his power. That his policies may kill thousands of Americans again.

      But also, because I am so fucking tired of hearing about every little thing he says. I wish we could go back to the not verging on the edge of fascism politics were I don’t have to hear or worry about what inane thing the most powerful person in my country has said today.

      As a USAmerican in a swing state I’m pretty sick of it too.

      Imagine this shit polluting your SMS and email and postal mail and people ringing your doorbell in addition to the rest of the web.

      Why do people keep saying USAmericans? It looks and sounds stupid, you can just say Americans, everyone will know who you’re talking about .
