What an irony to ask China for help
We are
in WW3 because of Trump's ego+ lack of wisdom/knowledge combined with the growing global bend towards nationalisim/isolationism --> reverting to taking by force instead of building a better world through world global cooperation.
Wealthy elites will profit and the amount of people who suffer will continue to grow.
When power successfully concentrates it corrupts and the world darkens because the only thing power wants is more.
It would not shock me if we end up in a civil war or if Trump uses the wars (he's creating) to institute a draft, seek an extension of his term, more troops in our streets, more surveillance and erosion of our constitutional rights.
I know it doesn't always come through in my posts but I love my country and what our founding inspired in the world. This has been a shitty 15 years not just for us but for basic human rights and humanity in general.
When I say my country is full of diversity it isn't in the politicized sense of the word:
My country is gorgeous in landscape and varied in our multitudes of people.
with all of our hundreds of millions of people the idea that homogenizing us is driving us in an authoritarian direction that seemed farfetched
Americans don't learn actual history so we don't fully understand the weight of liberty, only the propagandized version.
Maybe the leaders see the real danger in a Trump who is desperate enough to take the world down with him? Or maybe they tell him to F off?
The short attention span of humanity constantly surprises me (again irony).
When the USSR fell, the world didn't celebrate, we all moved in to get food to the people and invested great resources into stabilizing the region.
Putin took the wrong lesson from that and us people seem to forget how much we need each other.
