It's been one year since the illegal Trump tariffs were put in place. Almost everything you buy is more expensive now. There are less manufacturing jobs in the US now than there were a year ago. There are less factories in the US now. You didn't get a Tariff rebate check. Other countries have started making trade deals between each other and avoiding US goods.

Feeling liberated yet?

Most of Europe is working hard to have as little to do as possible with the US going forward. It's like an embarrassing cousin who can't stop causing drama at family gatherings.

Even here in the UK who shot ourselves in the foot by voting to leave the EU with the hope of closer ties to the US has pretty universally seen the benefits of closer ties with Europe.

The UK is like Europe's super-depressed brother who said he's leaving and never coming back. We still love you, and the door will always be open if you want to come home.

However there will be a padlock on the fridge from now on

I think we all know what would liberate us from this shithole timeline.

C'mon clogged arteries! Go blod clot! Do your thing, heart attack! You are so close stroke!

If this was the first time the US voted for him maybe, but this is a systemic problem not just Trump. We see that now.

[-] Denjin@feddit.uk 1 points 3 weeks ago

As if whoever replaces him wouldn't be any less damaging for the world.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Apparently, many US people have been liberated from the shackles of their jobs.

Dat's me! Been liberated for the past year and I've never felt more hopeless!

Seriously though, been keeping myself busy with archiving documents my deceased parents had, and renovating my house. Playing video games and watching movies and anime helps with escapism.

Have you tried the videogame version of meth known are Rimworld? Might I suggest you do if you haven't?

I just checked out the gameplay trailer. I can't say if I'm much of a management/sim kind of gamer, though I did enjoy what I've played of Stardew Valley and Core Keeper.

I'm more of a mapformer (Metroidvania), platformer, arcade beat-em-up, monster tamer, collectathon, visual novel, RPG, puzzle kind of gamer

May the Great Divestment from the Dis-United States Located In North America (DUSLINA) continue.

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago

I've been calling it the United Mistakes of America since the Reagan era. It's never been more apt.

[-] Arancello@aussie.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

unfortunately for the non political in murica, there is no end in sight for your misery. Directly or indirectly you voted for this. Every country around the world is doing their best efforts to reduce and eliminate your involvement and influence in their country. its likely that you will not be allowed to even set foot anywhere soon. But for those of us in other countries we will applaud your descent into poverty because you have gladly inflicted it on multiple other countries. GOOD TO RIDDENCE muricans.

Trust the plan.

He has liberated us from our somewhat functional economy.
