Dear USA:
Attention USA:

Attention USA: “When Are More Americans Going to Speak Up?” - Mocking MAGA all day every day is not "Speaking Up" about the mockery, it is being a part of the total mockery. People are unable to be serious.

"This is a time when America needs moral leadership, and not political leadership."

“And so as much as we want to point a finger at people who are elected to positions, which is justified, I also want to ask a lot of other powerful people in this country who are remaining silent. We’ve seen what many corporate leaders are doing right now—instead of speaking up and speaking truth, they’re kowtowing for their own private deals.”

100% this

The writer of this article can fucking blow me. Let's stop pretending Booker, Jeffries, Schumer, or any of the dem leadership has any semblance of sense. I'll give a shit what they have to say when they stop being idiots waving their hands. It'd be nice to see them actually do something.

100% this. The writer of this article can fucking blow me.

So your idea of democracy is that anyone who disagrees and expresses ideas you don't like should bow down and be your sexual slave and give you blow-jobs as you rule over them? That is Donald Trump's values of a democracy, being expressed right here on Lemmy social media systems in April 2025.

Let’s stop pretending ... any of the dem leadership has any semblance of sense.

So the problem to you in USA is "the democratic party leadership", and no criticism of the Republican Party that is in mass psychosis which nobody is identifying or organizing treatment and education.

We have hundreds of millions of people in mass psychosis and the denial is as thick as concrete.

I’ll give a shit what they have to say when they stop being idiots

So you want them as sex slaves bowing down to you giving blow jobs, you clearly give a shit to dominate and insult American people and call them idiots. But you don't want to face that hundreds of millions of people are in mass psychosis and don't give a shit until everyone stops "being idiots" in mass psychosis?

Do you think if we turn them all to blow-job sex slaves that the situation isn't gong to keep getting worse as it has every single day since March 2013?

If you are an American, I can't comprehend why you feel it is a good thing to take people with brain damage and in psychosis and want to make them your blow-job sex slaves and worsen the situation.

“When Are More Americans Going to Speak Up?”

Preach! PREACH!! Spread the truth.

is that the truth you are agreeing with, that more American people need to speak up? And not just react-comment and insult Americans, but speak up asserting goodness?

Yes, I am motivated by your words, and yes, more American's need to speak up. Sorry that was confusing.
