How could it have gotten worse? Is it negative now?
It’s unpopular with those living in the US as well.
Just one question.
I mean… As an American, that’s certainly a valid question. The short answer is that the modern American political two-party system has become the biggest shitshow in American history. For a longer explanation, I saw a video on a Canadian PeerTube instance that really explains the situation better than I could.
We’re pretty dumb and ignorant. Our education system is awful and incredibly inequitable (funded by local property tax so only nice areas have adequately funded schools). I recently read that like half the country reads below a 6th grade level. And we have an overwhelming level of right wing disinformation coming from “news” outlets like FOX, OAN, etc.
Even with all that, about 1/3 of the country loves Trump like he’s a god, 1/3 hates him like he’s the devil and 1/3 is completely tuned out of politics. Shit is about to get real bad here and no one will be able to ignore the economic disaster so I think those numbers will change in the next few months.
- voter apathy
- he didn’t win by as many votes as the largest election against him (2020)
- he was never popular among all people, but is among voting people
- electoral college doesn’t make sense
We have a broken election system here in the states, but not a popular president.
And what passes for the lefty party ran with genocide on their back and couldnt pull that off.
And the voters who support Palestine sure did a good job keeping the worst of two options out.
Ohhh well, at this rate the Palestinian question, likely won’t be an issue next election.
How’s this one… From the river to the sea Palestine will be just a string of resorts for you and me!
I never tried to hedge anything. I Like the 2/3rds solution. Every time Hamas or Palestine hurts someone they loose 2/3rds of their land!
Is this you a week ago? Im not suprised a zionist doesn’t want genocide to be a voting issue. It would be better if we just pretended it wasn’t happening so your buddies can keep sending missle straight into refugee tents.
Lol, you seem miffed. Like I struck close to a truth you refuse to acknowledge…
Well, enjoy your “non-vote” and “no support” pitch. This is the result you choose.
I think most people don’t realize they are mad about the repercussions of a somewhat “unchecked” capitalist system and point the blame (rightfully) at “insiders” and “elites” who they believe are enriching themselves at our expense. The Reich wing media also works wonders at directing “class conflict” into “social conflict” blaming immigrants and people who aren’t the same as them for all of our issues…
Where they fall flat is voting for the absolute embodiment of capitalist greed and somehow believe that because he isn’t an “insider” that means he gives a shit about them…
Propaganda is a hell of a drug.
I forget where I read it originally, but I think a lot about “You hate every piece of capitalism but don’t connect the dots to see the big picture”
Simple answer is that the majority of Americans still either completely agree with him, or they just hate the Dems so badly they’d vote for a potato before they vote for anyone with a D next to their name.
That or we continue entertaining the January 6 type of fantasy where we believe the entire thing was rigged.
I think it was both and the apathy of American voters who didn’t agree.
I hate living in the headlines of Plague Inc.
Uh… The US has been globally unpopular for as long as I’ve been alive.
USians become aware of how unpopular the US is, now that they agree with that sentiment
Edit: It me, I hate it here

How the fuck is Russia going UP?
possibly due to the coups in Africa?
Tankies aren’t spreading their crap for nothing lol
Ehh, good point. Humorously, a lot of those Tankies are Yankees. Which I will never understand. Setting fire to your own house to please your neighbor who doesn’t give a shit about you?
Let’s coin a new word. YankTank? TankYank?
yankies? as opposed to yankees
That does make the most sense but I feel you’d be fending off people trying to correct your spelling. YankieTank? It needs to be obvious on first glance.
Lol
