    Let’s remember that there good people there too. Let’s remember that these scumbags, whichever country they run, rely on our sweat, tears and blood to move forward with their decisions. While not all of us are good, obviously, I want to believe that many Americans were tricked by media to think Trump was a valid choice. What we need to understand it’s that this is a us people versus them rulers. If only we would understand this together and stop fighting each other…

      The fact that a nation does fascist shit is never excused by the fact that there might be people who weren’t all bad. Or were even good.

      Agreed, so stop giving it to them. When I see Americans bring the country to a screeching halt through protest, disobedience, and strikes I will believe in the good people there.

      I’m sure the media played a part.

      But fuck. He was so obvious with his racism, with his desire to be a dictator, fuckin everything.

      Fuck.

      I mean, that counts for Russia as well, but until recently you couldn’t say anything like this without getting attacked
