"Something I hope we can do no matter who you voted for is see each other not as adversaries but as fellow Americans, Bring down the temperature."

No. Human rights aren't a disagreement. We can disagree on whether or not we enjoyed a movie or on what pizza toppings we prefer. But if the disagreement is that you want to kill me or people I care about, you are, by definition, my adversary.

"The American experiment endures,"

I would say it just failed. I'm sorry but a system that elects a rapist, a 34 times convicted felon, one who defrauds students, cages children, takes away human rights, praises nazi's and dictators, and this was just the first term. I'm sorry but by any metric I care to meaure it by this is a failed experiment.

You forgot about the millions of people that died because of his Covid response

[–] 4grams@awful.systems 1 points 2 hours ago

Right, I barely scratched the surface.

The "American experiment" as far as I am aware is one of "self-governance".

It arguably has never been tried in earnest since the founding of this country, at very least failed entirely in 2016 with Russia's influence and the zero consequences that arose from that, and was likely dealt a critical blow by the citizens united decision which all but guaranteed that rich people would decide our elections for us in the future.

We voted ourselves into what I'm now pretty convinced is an unshakable oligarchy. You'll get what the rich, international oligarchs want you to have and nothing else. They've built bunkers in New Zealand and the Ozarks for when the consequences come knocking at their doors.

Fuck off Biden, now's the time to use that presidential immunity you just got to attack enemies of the state before your term ends. It's legal!

"The American Experiment" amazing how full of shit this thinking is, basically american exceptionalism

You’ll be dead before you see the full fallout of this disaster.

Guy surrendering power says it’s gonna be okay.

Guy taking power says we’re coming for you motherfuckers. Hm, who to believe?

[–] capital@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

No, it’s fine. We don’t do lesser evilism here so it’s fine. /s

[–] thisphuckinguy@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Yeah, no kidding.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 18 points 9 hours ago

Why didn’t you prosecute any treasonous criminals? Useless coward.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 45 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago) (1 children)

We aren't going to be okay. Stop saying it's going to be okay. Project 25 is not okay, turning Gaza into a crater is not okay, banning abortion is not okay, cutting Medicare is not okay. None of this shit is okay. Stop trying to sit and act like being cordial is going to make the right go, "Well, they're being so nice about it." We fucked up, and we need to face the consequences.

He just means technically we will probably survive. Maybe.

Considering Gen Z boys voted heavily for Shitler, I don't ever want to hear "OK boomer" again. Gen Z is a generation of infantile incels who refuse to vote for a woman.

No. We're not

Press X to doubt.

I really can't understand the level of "history is over, here" most of the West seems to be on. It's a delusion that has to break down eventually, but apparently we're not there yet.

I was about to downvote until I saw the community.
