I assure you, there is little "chilling and relaxing" that happens in America. But also wild to call all Americans stupid for not rioting while living in Germany.

Must be nice to not need to do anything other than feel supior for having done nothing other than not be born here.

    Of course I feel superior when people still call you a Nazi just because you're German (/s). No, I find it sad. But the behavior of relying on any legal processes to put an end to this or the peaceful protests or social media. 3 points that the Republicans and Trump are absolutely not interested in but laugh about. They watch as people are brought to El Salvador etc. You hardly hear anything about solidarity towards ICE... America is the land of free guns... but you ignore history and bury your head in the sand and hope that things will somehow get better for you.

    Edit: I don't mean solidarity for ICE but for the people who are abducted by them.

    So i should go to jail? How does that help? Jail in America is a mass of human rights abuse. We still have Muslims in prison for being Muslim in America after 9/11. We are aware tge system is fucked. But if you oppose tge system than the system runs you tge fuck over. If you want to come to America to experience slave labor, go for it.

    Weird to blame people with no power for what the billionaires do. But you are free to side with them if you choose.

    You live closer to the capital of America than some Americans.

    Your logic is also the same as "I don't sympathize with any black people at this point. Why don't they riot?" Insert any marginalized group here.

    Really not dodging the bad connotation of being German to throw 300 million people under the bus as stupid.

    "You live closer to the capital of America than some Americans. " Wtf... You know about Europe? Germany? The distance?

    By the way, are you saying America has ownership over dark skinned people or why the moronic and deviant comparison? Why push it towards race instead of just admitting "I won't do anything to preserve freedom and democracy I bankers Trump Republicans and people on the other side of the world but I myself won't lift a finger". I even have real hate for you now

    Answer one question before you continue with your smokebomb bullshit. Really pathetic and embarrassing. Say you're dumber than Trump. Even he knows that the United Nations has a form of democracy (well had... you're watching the shift to fascism like you're watching a movie again) and sees that very democracy as the enemy.

    George Washington and the Founding Fathers would roll over in their graves if they knew that their own people didn't even know they were republicic Democracy anymore.

    Oh, I didn't see your edit after I responded.

    "You live closer to the capital of America than some Americans. " Wtf... You know about Europe? Germany? The distance?

    Yes, I can Google. You live 600 miles closer to the capital of America than American citizens living in Hawaii.

    By the way, are you saying America has ownership over dark skinned people or why the moronic and deviant comparison? Why push it towards race instead of just admitting "I won't do anything to preserve freedom and democracy I bankers Trump Republicans and people on the other side of the world but I myself won't lift a finger". I even have real hate for you now.

    No, I'm saying we enslaved them. America has more people in prison than every other nation, including China (second), which has over triple the population.

    In America, if you are in prison, you do not really have rights. Prisons are owned by private companies that charge the state for each resident.

    Our police force was not founded in peace keeping, it was people who were trying to return slaves to their owners. They massacred Africans for revolting or not.

    The history of how Americans treated Africans informs how America treats its poor masses today.

    Also, the Nazi rhetoric was learned from Americans. We euthanized first, and we built concentration camps for Japanese people. We, as a nation, never had the reckoning that Germany had. We still believe most of what we taught you.

    Go ahead and hate all Americans all you want. But calling them all stupid is nazi rhetoric learned from the USA. Go ahead and hate me if you want because I'm trying to survive. Just like your ancestors did when Germany was more American (assuming you have lineage there).

    I could never in modern American society get anywhere near the oligarchs in order to do literally anything to affect them. I could riot in the streets.

    The LONGEST distance across Germany is around 800 miles. The SHORTEST distance across America is over 2,400.

    Imagine you rioting to piss off Putin... only 1,000 miles away from you. Europeans always forget just how fucking massive this country is.

    It was clear that an example would now come from beyond the continent... We also know that the majority of America does not live on the continent but scattered on island groups. Well, it's only about 1000km more... when it comes to your own democracy and your own freedoms and your own life, that should be worth it. Nevertheless, I was thinking more of those on the continent... I'm not thinking of 10,100,1000,10k,100k... but several million... You wouldn't have that much space in the prisons. No, I don't want to see you or anyone else innocent in prison, but sooner or later they will take action against all democracies, etc., and then one way or another there will be prison, slave labor or deportation to El Salvador or something like that... You have to organize yourselves and really in huge masses. So and yes I call Americans who only see legal processes, peace protests etc as an option dumber than stupid Trump, that is not to say I don't think Americans are intelligent. Intelligent people can also act stupidly. Likewise, I did not say that I hate the Americans but merely that I lose all sympathy for them. Of course I hope the best for you and wish you no harm... but I no longer show sympathy when people complain about the situation but do nothing. Or even worse and just point the finger at the Republicans and Trump...

    I'm more afraid that you feel personally attacked because you know deep down that I'm unfortunately right.

    Just don't behave like Trump/MAGA. Always reflect your own behavior on everyone else... since you're just trying to dodge, deflect, etc. all the time. Yes, I hate people like Trump.

    Reflect your own behavior on everyone else? The fuck does that mean? What are you trying to nail me down on? You've just said that Americans are all stupid because we are not doing what you would do in our shoes...

    Why are you even still talking to me? What is your goal? To convince me personally to perform civil unrest? We are the only two people here this deep in a thread. So what's up?

    But to answer my question "why should I", for example, you are constantly drawing attention to something else and can't even give such a simple answer. That's really Trump level. Plus all the other bullshit you've been spouting. But hey, I get you, it's everyone else's fault and only everyone else is capable of acting... yes you even expect people from other continents to lead riots for your freedom and democratic rights because you definitely don't want to take action yourself. Instead, something will come from you again where you shift the focus onto others or me again.

    Oh and why im still writing? Cause im answer. Simple.

    "Why should I?" was my question to you though? I asked why I should go to jail for rioting. You wanted riots, I welcomed you to come riot.

    I am capable only of controlling myself, not others. I don't expect anyone to ever do anything for me, I'm American, and it would be a first.

    You told me what all Americans need to do in order to earn your empathy. You don't see how fucked that is?

    Do you have no respect or empathy for the Palestinians in Gaza right now? I assume you don't have empathy for them either since they are not rioting.

    Fucking insane that you think I am the one not capable of self reflection.

    Yes, I said you shouldn't go to jail, but above all I'm thinking of millions of people regarding riots. Again... "why should i"? Personally, I don't care if you voluntarily want to go into fascism and trample on basic democratic rights. It's not about my empathy, but how do you think the thinking of the rest of the world will change? Because you can see how you allow Trump to do just about anything. I mention riots not because I personally want them but because it is YOUR last and only chance to stop the change. But you don't seem to understand that. It's actively up to you citizens in America but you're both just embarrassing the other side. That's why I have no sympathy anymore... I just don't support or tolerate fascism.
