    So many other places have figured how to at lesst not be as bad as the US, and they’ve also figured out how to stand up for themselves without firearms. US citizens are largely stupid cowards who will allow themselves to be sold for scrap so they can pretend that things are ok. There’s stupid and then there’s the US, the country with all the resources but not the two braincells to do anything with them. Ya’ll were fucked long before the propaganda and social engineering really took hold, and when it did those techniques came in playing on easy mode. The rest of the world looks at you amazed at how bad you are at everything and how you can’t even be bothered to at least be good people while sucking so bad.

    We have had to watch the US put up clear, articulate, and even energizing politicians only for them to never make it into power way too many times. We’ve had to watch even mediocre people lose to people so insane and that even Fox News can’t hide it. It’s wild how fucked that country is, and now some douche canoe is bitching that they aren’t allowed to open carry because of course that’s your fucking solution.

    Garbage country. Country of garbage.

      The UK seems to keep letting Boris do shit in government.

      AfD in Germany doubled their power in the last election.

      Duterte hit the scene in the Philippines before trump in the US.

      Italy just elected a far-right PM.

      The biggest mistake you can make regarding the conservative dipshit death cult in the US, is assuming that your fellow dumbass citizens aren’t vulnerable to the exact same rhetoric.

        Oh, the whole place is falling apart and US setting trends is a big part of that problem. Us in Canada should have done way better than we did last election, but even we managed to not do our usual flip-flop and barely scraped by not electing a massive piece of garbage who would have rolled over for Trump at every turn.

        Didn’t I also say “long before” in there? That Duterte comment lookin’ kinda like you either weren’t reading like you think Trump is where it started falling apart. Or you think 2010 is ancient and irrelevant history, maybe.

          Ah, so you know first-hand what I’m talking about. All this shit going on in the US, and your populace just barely didn’t shoehorn themselves into a far right shithole.

          The biggest mistake you can make, is thinking that it can only happen in the US.

            You can try to deflect all you want, the US is still a massive shithole that put itself in this mess and keeps exporting its pathetic extremism in myriad different ways. It’s a huge failure and trying to drag everyone down with it.

            And all this started with me telling the person who thought banning open-carry firearms was the problem to shut the hell up. Everywhere is full of stupid, the US brand is just extra special.
