Please don't take this the wrong way, because I absolutely understand your position and the shitty position your in.
Trump IS your president. Whether you voted for him or not. At the same time, the government, or rather the way you are governed, is also YOUR responsibility. No one can change it but you and your fellow citizens. If you don't like your president, elect someone else. If you don't like the presented options, pressure whatever party you think fits into providing better options. If you fear, you won't be able to ever get a real vote anymore, then fight for your right! No one from the outside is going to come in and fix this for you. This is THE ONE responsibility that you have as a citizen....
Yes, but, it's a responsibility spread across the entire population. If you've ever been apart of a group project in a school setting you're likely familiar with how people can fuck that up despite your best efforts. Yes you're also responsible, but you (imo) also get to bitch about how they fucked up your project.
Absolutely. But you can't do more than kick the ass of everyone in your group that isn't doing their part. You can't stop and give up as well. You have to motivate all other group members and - if necessary - kick out the one dude that does nothing.
So...you can complain and moan, but in the end it does not change what you have to do.
From the other siexe of the pond, I really wish you all the strength and wish you all the best. I'm serious, I'm really worried about everyone in the US.
Brilliant, unheard of, stunning, truly enlightened. If only there was a way for some major city to act on this sage advice along with every other election that occured three days ago.
