    As is typical for the US, 1/3 are deeply aware, 1/3 are in full “patriotic” support, and 1/3 are too distracted by the latest TikTok dance to notice.

      In a burning house with three people, one is fighting the fire, one is pouring gasoline on everything and one is on the couch watching TV.

        Let’s add a 4th person in there, someone who thinks they’re helping by doing nothing but yelling that the fire isn’t allowed to burn things

            If more of you would have voted for Jill Stein, we wouldn’t be in this mess!

            /s in case that wasn’t obvious

                  Democrats are the ones criticizing the ones actually trying to put out the fire but doing jack shit about it.

                  What’s more, they’re the ones who doused the house with gas not a half a year ago, and whenever they’re not delighting in the terror going “oh I bet you must love it, you didn’t vote for the lady with the matches and now you got the guy with the flamethrower” they’re passing his budgets, they’re complying with Musk’s unelected goons, they’re getting on with his Gaza agenda and largely silent about the protestors getting kidnapped.

                  Asking for donations isn’t resisting, it’s ransom.

      I think there’s another 1/3 - maybe at intersection of them all.

      A great many people in shock, and don’t realise this is just America mask-off.

      It’s standard American foreign policy and has been for 60 years. The wars they have started, the regime change, it’s all standard. Ask anyone in South America or the Middle East.
