There is no use in getting overwhelmed. I am merely getting more practiced in drinking larger and larger amounts of whiskey and smoking larger and larger amounts of cannabis to deal with it.
We all have a process
And hopefully, at least most of us will survive.
If not, for all of you fascists: I have a plan to destroy all of you that involves an enormous amount of pee. Like, so much, you can’t fucking imagine. An absolute cavalcade of pee.
Don’t try me

The rest of us, in the civilised world, watch on from behind our fingers in horror and bewilderment
America is a classic case of the elephant chained to a small stake as a baby
The learnt helplessness of the population is nuts
Yeah, it seems to me, school is really just a process that mostly exists to teach you to adhere to nonsensical processes. At least that was largely how it was in my case.
People are told to sit and listen for the first 18 years of their life, and then they're told to stand up and do something the rest of their lifes.
People are educated to not think for themselves, feel for themselves, and make life experiences. Everything is regulated. Parents have too much control. It takes a village to raise a child, yet we've normalized the "core-family"-household. What a perversion of nature.
School starts in 'Murica with the worship of the flag
It's indoctrination at its finest
Bold of you to assume this post is limited to American neo-fascism. It absolutely resonated with me here in Germany. This "civilized world" you speak of - is it here in the room with us right now?
I never got the insistence of people that "stop immigration" would be a far-right thought.
Being against immigration can have lots of reasons, primarily economical reasons. It objectively (I'd say) is a good thing that the birth rate is dropping, because that improves the socio-economic position of the people. I.e., it reduces the supply in workforce, which increases prices for labor (a.k.a. wages). And it also means that more resources are available per person, which reduces the cost of living.
Yet, many people (especially the "greens") seem to argue that we need more workers to fulfill the demands of our economy, which, frankly, is just bullshit and plainly wrong. ... and that assumed need for more workers is then used as a justification to import people, as if they were a shippable product. It's disgusting, really. First we start a war in the middle east; then we move the people to a foreign country. It's a double shame.
how about we fucking do neither.
Oh, Germany is a mess. Hungary is a disaster, Turkyie is fucked,
There are lots of problems
I'm grateful to live in Australia
Not quite - or at least they have the best chance at recovery if (and that's a big if) they can oust Erdoğan and his cronies. If they manage that, Turkiye would soon be more democratic than most of the EU in its present state.
Yep
Erdoğan is poison, and has been for so damned long
It's a beautiful country with such potential
Chained to a small stake, yes. But there's also the greater threat of being shot and told it was your fault if the stake comes out.
