    Thanks America and your elected regime for meddling in everyone’s lives. You might be shocked to learn your popularity is waning.

      The sad (but unsurprising) thing is, whenever you encourage them to actually take a risk and take some kind of collective action to bring down the pedophile, they say “my job, I’m scared” when in the same paragraph, they talk about how they’re one paycheck from utter destruction.

      They don’t realize that they literally have nothing to lose at this point.

          Came off as abrasive, but your point stands.

          Political support for the alt-right is booming across Europe. The last thing you European folks need to do is raise your nose at the American tire fire. Deal with your own, before its too late.

          The French came millimeters from electing Marine Le Pen for fucks sake. Practically every far right party in Europe is either in government or close to it. We aren’t going to get anywhere until we realize the call is coming from inside the house of neoliberal failure, decline in living standards, and the harms of the information economy, rather than some country-specific problem.

          Like those armchairs you sat in when you could have voted and handled the pedophile in a peaceful manner. I just wish that the rest of the world wouldn’t have to suffer the consequences of your weakness and stupidity.

            Oh right, I forgot to vote! There are ~330m of us, we’re not a monolith. I did vote. I’m not getting shot by the fucking SS because some pussy on the other end of an internet connection says there’s “more I could be doing”. Idiot.

                  This is a good thing then, I hope that it has resulted in some action from them.

                  Honestly, I hope that the May 1st protest becomes the start of a sustained general strike. At this point, that’s the only thing that will work, rather than armed rebellion, which I don’t think any sane individual wants.

        Even worse, she might have also done the terrible crime of wearing something tan and that would have seriously damaged the reputation of the United States.
