      The US is putridly the source of all evil, pretty much. If one of you guys’ pentagon nukes self-detonated the world would be a better place.

        There are millions of people here who are kind and compassionate and want none of this and are absolutely horrified and too depressed to even work and function, but have no idea what to do about it.

            The last several US elections had the highest voter turnout in US history. Laziness was not the issue, it was media compromise by internal and external sources pushing lies, ruining attention spans, and legions of foreign troll farms amplifying the most extreme voices of both sides of every single social issue so the majority of people tuned out from actual information.

            There was an entire report on it from intelligence agencies that was broadly ignored by those in power benefitting from the effects it caused.

            Whatever country you feel superior for living in right now, you are equally vulnerable and I guarantee you’re entire life is nothing more than fractions of decimals in some analyst’s office after being told to give profit projections for capturing gainshare from doing the same damn thing to you and your people.

          Your ancestors inspired the atrocities of the Holocaust, and more than 41% of your current citizens would vote for Trump again if they had the chance. You guys are not all compassionate and kind like your echo chamber opinions and rose-coloured glasses make it seem.
