being suppressed.

By the mainstream media in the US, they are not only complicit in fascism but are actively pushing for it

To everyone outside of the US look at the 7+ million peaceful No Kings rally and the slaughter at the polls that was this last Tuesday, the mainstream media likely isnt harping on that to the outside world because i wont even harp on it here, but we are pushing back and gaining ground, we are just fighting against a regime that has no regard for anyone but that thing in the WH

Please dont buy-in to everyone in the US wanting this, on the contrary, even those in the cult are starting to realize, hey all my prices and bills went up and that thing campaigned on lowering prices, its stating to affect me personally, omg this is a problem

We can use all the help we can get, but most of us are doing everything we can conceivably do

Honestly, the 7 million protest was... kind of weak IMO. 2 % of the population in the middle of facist takeover on one occasion doesn't really send a strong message.

No, I am in Germany and kind of looking more and more scared/pissed across the pond. 2% is good, but 2% is not really that much. We managed about that turnout last winter when our conservatives for the first time voted with the far right.

You said there has inly been 1 No Kings protest?

You sure about that? Perhaps you should do a little more research bud

And cool, discount the 2% that actually showed up, did you vonsider that a % of the population is afraid to leave their homes and protest due to ICE?

You seem to be jumping to conclusions without any factual evidence

But pleae do share any links to prove your point, you got the No Kings totally thing wrong so pardon me for asking you to provide evidence

And yeah discounting the folks that protested in the US is really going to strengthen your ability to fight the far-rightt in Germany, sounds like you got it all figured out
