"Your life is worth it, don't give up!"
Right as I think about my own suicide plans.
I feel like a hypocrite.
Steal it from the Libyans
Build Delorean
???
~~Profit?~~ Win War?
Jesus Christ. This is the shit my parents watch every day on wechat? 🤦♂️
Bruh they are fucking addicted to wechat, literally glued to it.
Maybe I shouldn't be judging, I'll admit also addicted to platforms like Reddit/Lemmy, but at least I fact check stuff and use critical thinking. I don't browse a platform filled with racist comments and go "hmm I love spending time reading stuff on this platform".
He'll be free on Jan 20... 🤦♂️
For me:
Step 1: Go back to birth country of PRC.
Step 2: Be labeled a traitor and western spy
Step 3: Lake Laogai
(Just kidding, China revoked my citizenship because I obtained US citizenship, so I'd be illegally entering China if I tried)
But seriously tho, I have nowhere to run to. Nowhere that isn't literally worse than the US. No place thats better than the US would accept US refugees because we are still technically a democracy, and the border agents at whatever country you apply for asylum would tell you to go back to the US and move to a Blue state. "Moving out of the country" is what people commonly say but its not a realistic solution.
A cat rubbing its head against you.
I love it, so warm, so soft.

My sympathy for Ukraine says they should.
My survival instincts as an American would say they shouldn't because then Russia get big mad and nuke us. I don't enjoy radiation, so my survival brain is saying they shouldn't.
But my suicidal brain after seeing the result of the US presidential election says: Fuck it, let them do whatever, hell we can even gift some to them. Climate is fucked anyways. Lets pretend this is a sandbox game and see what happens. What's the worst that can happen, die? Hehe I've been dying inside and November 5 just cut off my life support.
So it depends which alter ego you ask. Ye know, like the angel and demon on your shoulders.
Edit: holy shit its 2AM and I'm wasting time on Lemmy. that just shows how dead on the inside i am... cant sleep, fucking election anxiety.
In this thought experiment, they would certainly not be able to say that because they wouldn’t exist anymore.
Bruh my brain is so filled with election anxiety that I don't even realize this fact 🤣
But the point remains, the military would never obey such orders. Biden would have to quickly fire the chain of commands until he finds such commander, find a unit in the military willing to perform such illegal act, carry out the act, then get senate to confirm new justices. Oh btw Democrats still believe in the rule of law, senate Democrats would never approve this, even if he orders 50 of the most conservative members killed (50 is quorum btw) there wouldn't be 25 democrats willing to confirm them. What would happen is republican house would impeach biden along with like 90% of democrats voting in favor, then the senate would probably like 40/50 dems voting to convict. Democrats would lose the electoral college like all the swing states against whatever republican is running, even if he tries to get the entire republican ticket killed, since non voting republicans would be raging against democrats. The Democratic party would have to disband and form another party to try to rebrand.
I mean Biden is not a dictator, he can only do what average Democratic politicians in congress would deem acceptable. I mean at this point its just political fan-fiction. This is civil war territory and any speculation would sound surreal and ridiculus.
(The results of this election is already surreal enough)
The average voter mindset is "which president will get me cheaper food?"
My parents get fed propaganda from Wechat (yes that Chinese app) saying democrats are letting too much illegal immigrants in, taking up too much resources.
We are legal immigrants, but shes doesn't see "illegal immigrant" is a dogwhistle about all immigrants that they dont like like black or brown people, or anyone they deem inferior.
Doesnt help the fact that Eric Adams and NYC democrats are building homeless shelters near Chinese American population.
My parents told me some of our relatives in NYC voted Trump, Asian Americans voting trump.
They say some Asian American co-workers at their workplace are supporting Trump.
My parent say "Its fine, we survived one term under trump"
Everyone who's a US Citizen in our household voted Kamala Harris. We tried. Our state PA still went red.
My US Citizen mom once said, "maybe we shouldn't vote for democrats, look at what they did in NYC (refering to homeless shelters)", and I reminded her about the Chinese Exclusion Act. So she vote Harris because I told her to. Like she didnt have a mind of her own. If her children turned out to be conservatives, she'd vote trump. Some people just dont care about politics. Similarly, some people have apolitical children but political parents, those children then vote for who their parents vote for.
We need to fix this voter apathy. Democracy is just broken.
(oh wow didnt mean to type a paragraph, sorry for the wall of text, election results still enraging me...)
Honestly I'd feel safer if we reduce the power of the federal government and put the power to the states. Sorry left-leaning people in red states, can't let states like yours drag the country down with you.
Hopefully TOR + ProtonVPN is good enough.
I mean my alternative is to shut up and live like I'm in China. Fuck that. I'll just have to pray none of the nodes are compromised and ProtonVPN isn't betraying me. I'm feeling a bit suicidal anyways. Fuck trump, Fuck fasicm
They can't arrest us all.
Edit: Oh forgot to mention that they also have to obtain the Exit Node IP from my Anarchist Instance Owner first before they try to trace the connection.
