They're either stupid or they're liars.

You didn't wake up, this is hell.

And he's already published his hit list of trump enemies to go after. Good to see another one of trump's "only the best people" able to hit the ground running. Thank god the days of weaponised government are over...

So in summary, today is the day the US officially became a dictatorship?

[–] TheCriticalMember@aussie.zone 15 points 5 months ago

I believe the US is a failed state. trump just decided that himself and his AG are the only people who can decide which laws apply to the executive, and ordered the termination of all remaining Biden era US Attorneys. I know we've been saying this a lot lately, but it feels like a mask off moment.

Not my kids, but my wife is American and I lived there for 10 years before moving our family back here in 2015. I thought all my in-laws were decent people, but found out that they all voted for trump last November, and I have to say it's got me feeling very conflicted. I doubt I'd be able to maintain a relationship with any of them if I were still there, knowing what they chose to support.

If you thought trump was ever going to help working people, you're a fucking idiot.

It's still infuriating that there are people who think "Labor isn't putting out the fire fast enough, so let's vote for the petrol party".

[–] TheCriticalMember@aussie.zone 5 points 5 months ago

Me either. 9 years ago I moved my family here from the US (I'm Aussie born), and I've been dirt poor ever since. But I don't even know where the hell else we'd go.

It's pretty horrifying, makes me worry that the average Australian is exactly the kind of person I suspected.

Jesus fucking Christ, are we all learning nothing from what's happening in the US right now???

Not bad, but my favorite so far is "gulfefe".
