[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a Canadian I was surprised at how fast he turned on us, ripping up trade agreements, and surprised at all the negative comments I hear from Americans that actively hate us.  And people wonder how Hitler got into power.

The only thing that will rile up most privileged Americans will be when they come after your SSRIs.

You do know that most privileged Americans are scared of this administration and horrified by Trump. That’s why we are thinking of fleeing our own country. The tone deafness it would take to come on to this thread and say Americans don’t care…. Just wow. [/quote]

The PP is right. Most Americans don’t care. And maybe privileged Americans like you should use your privilege to do something instead of running away. [/quote]

NP. If I was a billionaire I’d use my $$ to run anti-trump and Elon ads. I’m privileged, but can’t afford that and compete with the oligarchs, so I’ll run away.[/quote]

So because you're not a billionaire, you're going to run away and leave the least privileged Americans to suffer? [/quote]

As opposed to doing what?[/quote]

What do you expect the PP to do?

How can any individual fight the massive number of idiots who believe the relentless flow of misinformation?

I don't know, maybe not just bail?
What makes you think other countries want to take in selfish cowards?

I know, you'll say it's not your fault and you'll be welcome anywhere because you have money, and you don't care even if you're not welcome because your family blah blah....and that is precisely why Americans are so despised around in the world and why the country was so susceptible to this in the first place.

umm blah blah.. most of us are one or two generations out from people who abandoned their own countries.  like sunnis from pakistan - noone is persecuting them, so many of the pakistani drs here went to medical school on the pakistani governments dime, did their 7 years and move to the US instead of staying there and voting and helping foster a liberal democracy.  Brazilians or Egyptians, Nigerians, Ghanians, Peruvians-  these people immigrated here to make a quick buck, they have no sense of civic responsibility or sacrifice so of course they will bail. many diaspora communities are made up of economic migrants, and people like that dont care about community.  also many countries have improved a lot- it used to be that no matter how wealthy you were, you couldnt have the same living standard as in the USA. that is no longer true- but these diaspora communities better move quick, the oligarchs back home might close their borders as well![/quote]
