I don't want to "just get through it". That's some passive bullshit. Shit needs to happen. These shitheads supporting trump need to know that we will not accept their oppression.

Heck yeah go get 'em.

There's a lot of people with too much on their backs to do it though. Kids, parents, money, jobs, love, etc.

For them (not you or the go getters) spare a thought, as they say.

And this is why we’re going to move to Canada. Not like the oh we’re going to move, like I’m prepared to do literally whatever it takes including moving my family into a studio apartment in the middle of nowhere in order to protect them from the nightmare that is about to befall my country

I never thought I’d say that, but my fellow Americans have let me down in a way I honestly didn’t think was possible anymore. We have learned nothing from our past and the people who voted for sweet potato Hitler are going to get what they deserve. The problem is that everyone else is going to get what they deserve too

Maybe it’s just a fractal of earlier empires but with a shorter time on top and a faster decline. Whatever the case I’m not going to wait around for a dude in a guy fawkes mask to start a revolution. I’m outta here

Cool. I hear Canada's great. And it's pretty diverse, so you can live in New France or Super-Oregon or Canadian Alabama, or Alaska For Reals. They have a true love for doughnuts and fries and rail service and some beautiful landscapes. Plus hardly any drop bears or any of those Australian things that will murder you horribly for no particular reason because they're primoridal and you built a house on them.

Good call, IMO.

Canada has it's own right wing bullshit brewing, running away from the problem doesn't seem to be the answer.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Sadly, also true.

Yeah I keep hearing that but I think at least you gotta keep trying to get to higher ground while you can

Canada may have problems but they’re not like this, at least not yet

They’d be perfectly right not to. Ugh.

Edit: “us” being Americans, I mean.

Organize labor. General strike. Halt the economy. There are so many ways to resist that don't require you to wait four years and plug your nose to vote for the Republicans of 20 years ago.
