Off topic, but any other non-US people here, how are you reacting to the USA's facism on hyperdrive streak?
I don't think the US has ever been the most popular country, but now the president is trying to eradicate palestine, disrupt European security from Russia, and plunge the world into a climate apocalypse at an even faster than before rate, I feel a lot worse about any interactions with the USA. I've been trying to move away from using anything US produced or owned, which isn't particularly easy.
Is it just me? Was I naive to think US was any better before? Am I naive in singling out the US?
Hi, Aussie here. Entirely expected and unsurprising. I mean Hitler learned from the USA.
Been watching the usa destroy everything nice about Australia for my entire life and waiting for the other shoe to drop. Good luck, please don't our government again if we elect another socialist.
Another Aussie here. We have elections coming up and looking at the US as a cautionary tale for reactionary politics. Hoping it does not translate to success for our Trump-lite candidate here.
