Cab driver also asked is Finland a NATO member. Yes. ”How did Russia respond?” ”We didn’t ask them”.

I didn't even know Finland joined NATO.

Id argue it's an entirely different issue. Our country has no problem with violence, the numbers make that abundantly clear. I feel the issue more so stems from a lot of people here being relatively indifferent to things that don't directly affect them. Many, if not most Americans are rabidly individualistic, they care about themselves, and a very small circle around them with everything outside that small circle being the "others" those others being the ones they blame for all their issues. As long as nothing negatively impacts their small circle they care about, they don't give a shit.

That individualism in a lot of places itself stems from how rural and spread out a majority of the country is. Shit, even for me to go join a protest at the Capitol of just my state is a 3 hour drive each direction, and I don't even live in one of the bigger states. This country is so spread out in many areas that it's hard for many to care, let alone actually get involved if they do care.

You mix that individualism with a lot of really, incredibly stupid people, im talking half of the country can only read at a 6th grade level or less, and the fact that a large swath of people are living paycheck to paycheck and literally don't have the time or resources to get out and protest unless they'd like to be homeless without Healthcare, and this is the result you get. There have been tons of protests, quite a few of which have gathered some pretty good traction, even if its not shown in the media, but getting something going en masse in this country is nearly impossible.

Everyone is an armchair general these days

That is unfortunately the truth of it.

I'm one of the burned out wage slaves. I like my job, at least, but I'm struggling just to keep my life together, let alone society.

I know that's true for almost anyone who would be part of a resistance, but the learned helplessness is real.

Four out of three Americans don't understand fractions.

dude there hasnt been a good vote since i've been alive, the cope is annoying, none of these people are strait up winning kings or queens, you'll never hear them even talk that way. They will always be fat lazy pieces of garbage to humiliate us. It's not even a vote, it's a humiliation ritual. It's all over the globe, this degeneration, it's basically like cults took over the world for thier imaginery gods and they fight over them. They never progress.
