We all feel bad for each other. Europe and North America are going down the fucking toilet fast. We're all implementing authoritarian laws, we're just in varying stages of doing so or prioritising one thing over another.
UK is banning porn sites, wikipedia, and protest, US is deploying the national guard to the streets and has ICE acting like the Gestapo. EU is lagging behind the UK but looks to be on track for implementing the same things. Not to mention the widespread indirect support of a genocide.
Things are bad for us all. But I support the efforts of people everywhere who are fighting to make the future look a little less bleak.
