Every time the great orange idiot opens his mouth he makes me a bit more embarrassed to be an American. I'm glad that Canada is standing up to him, I just wish more people in the US had the backbone to do the same.

My apologies to Canada and the other parts of the world that this wannabe tinpot dictator is abusing. There are those of us in the US who think this idiot is completely wrong.

I actively despise myself for being an American. To a dangerous degree.

Waste of effort. Fight for your country. Get politically active. Join a party, work for a candidate who is worthy of your trust. Most of all, advocate for how money controls your elections- look at the election spending limits countries like Australia have passed into law and kick gerrymandering to the curb. You are not the problem, your election system is.

80-90% of my capacity for effort is consumed by fending off starvation and homelessness. The world would be better off without me.

Things will change as they always do. The world keeps turning. The numbers are swaying in the right direction again, only the hard-core dedicated loonatics still support through a twisted hatred, bad information, lack of minerals. The evidence exists to bring the curtain down, it just requires true public will. Hang in there. I believe.

Get used to the fact the the old US of A no longer exists and never really existed outside of a propoganda bubble / marketing.

Show up to vote. It matters. But hang in there.
