      I tell all my friends and family to use less USAian services and products. [email protected]

      It’s a necessary step. Using more opensource stuff and consuming less USAian media will help at least a bit with the propaganda coming from there.

      Yeah since everything is tied to the fucking dollar and whatever America does affects us all it’s not really surprising.

      Not much that I can do about it, so might as well not worry about it. Also my country is a few steps ahead of America

        The are encouraging you and all other non-Americans to not fall asleep at the wheel like we have. The system that allowed this shit show to develop has been building for decades and we allowed it to happen.

        Do not allow it to happen where you live, because the oligarchy is coming for you too.

      Lol. Lmao even.

      Your country has been a joke for at least the past decade, only thing america is doing these days is ensuring others independence from it (honestly the sole source of the countries value so we’ll see how that goes long term).

      But have fun with your facists!

      Youre right it should be everyone else’s problem but poor, suffering america

        There is a rope tied between our currency and the rest of the western world’s ankle. Laughing at our drowning nation is ignoring that you’re running out of rope.

          I love how Americans can always see themselves as a victim.

          Yes you have handcuffs around every wrist you’ve had access to in the past century, but in this day and age even your handcuffs are outsourced.

          Honestly America doesnt actually produce anything but IP laws these days.

          And ya know other countries might not share your lack of education and realise its 1000% cheaper to simply just bypass the bully in the room.

            I never said the word victim, but since you brought it up, 50% of the US are victims to this. A large number of us were actively fighting against this outcome and lost. We have been deciding what to do next, and many educated people are in the process of leaving the country. Those without that ability are stuck to suffer under the current conditions.

          Except Trump has finally made every other country in the world question why we don’t just cut the rope. I think the rope will be cut if Trump continues to stay in office.

            Definitely, but it takes a while to chop through a thick rope like that. If we sink too fast, a lot of other countries are screwed.
