Try living it. As an American citizen, I have never lived with such a high level of stress and anxiety in my entire life. I am a lifelong student of history (I have a degree in a branch of history), and I KNOW where the kind of government we have now leads, and there are NO positive outcomes for the majority of Americans. Frankly, I don't think the potential outcomes will be good for the Sociopathic Oligarchs either, but they are too blinded by their sick obsession with greed and money to see it.

I don't see us getting out of this without violence.

It's been going on for over a decade, so I'm pretty much used to it by now. Whether it's a Republican or Democrat, a racist homophobe, or an anti-business bureaucrat who believes in taxing the hell out of everyone, every politician is a rich elite that ignores the will of the people and completely mucks up everything. I just accept it. I accept that they're not the King. They're subject to the Sovereign King, God, and will eventually answer to him, just like I will have to.

Also, I've had my own share of issues just finding steady work, so politics is just a background noise when it's shaky where my next meal is coming from.

Still figuring out that coping part. Right now I have a daily anxiety spike early in the morning that wakes me up, so not going great currently.

I hope you guys can hold it together across the pond. I've heard that some of the same powers are turning their attention and money towards you guys now (or at least in Germany).

this coming off an europe union country citizen is amusing
