  • He briefly paused for the chamber’s prayer at noon

    Wait what. I know separation of church and state is barely real in the USA, but the chamber actually does a prayer??

  • Not really directed at you specifically, it’s just that it seems like the top response to Trump doing anything is that it’s just a distraction. I can’t really put my finger on exactly what it is about it that bugs me, but I think it just comes across as dismissive

    Edit: I think it bothers me the most when it’s something in relation to a country other than the USA. Like fine, write off the stuff that only affects the US, but to hear things just shrugged off as “it’s only a distraction” from a citizen of the country where said things are really screwing us over is just irritating.

    It’s like if someone just threw a handful of shit at you and someone else says “oh yeah that’s just a distraction 🤷”

  • For sure and I wouldn’t call 1980s centrists fascists but at this point the US Overton window has shifted so far to the right that it’s hard to forgive anyone still in the middle. Like you have one party that’s brought on a billionaire to dismantle the government, threatening annexation of a number of sovereign nations, detaining people (not even convicted of any crimes) in brutal, torturous ways, and a million other horrid things; and then you have the other party that just kind of wants to keep things the status-quo.

    If the former party is fascism and the latter is (sane) liberal conservatism, what would you call someone in the centre of that? Looking in from outside the US, I don’t see much of a difference between proponents of the fascism and the centrists. Like if I hear someone “in the centre” say “hmm well maybe Trump is right, we should invade Canada/Greenland/Panama”, I’m going to rightfully call them a fascist.

    Important note: I wouldn’t say this applies to other countries where the Overton window isn’t so insanely far to the right

  • Not everything is a distraction and your country needs to stop dismissing everything as one

  • Man what? Your Democrat party is basically right wing for the rest of the west. Are you saying every other countries’ left leaning parties are authoritarian? Canada’s Liberal party would be more progressive than the Democratic Party and they’re not even our most progressive party…

    What you’re saying is the most ignorant, America-brained political take I’ve seen recently

  • Every time an American claims something is just a distraction I get more annoyed. Threats of invading sovereign nations is not just a distraction. It’s pretty fucking alarming as a citizen of one of those nations and the dismissal of it is offensive
