Gods, this is so accurate. A part of me wish we could just isolate the U.S. for a bit, because I'd be curious to see how that'd affect the discourse in the rest of the world. The rise of the far right and Trump legitimately being voted in as president legitimised the far-right movements in my country as well. Last election people were literally pushing for the stop-and-frisk BS to become a thing here.

I hate that I know what stop-and-frisk even is.

We need a new internet, without shootings and two party politics!

You're just jealous it's not Europe's job anymore.

[–] Wats0ns 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ahah yes, we're taking turns

On the bright side, if civilization doesn't collapse we'll eventually all get to complain about why the news is Chinese politics 24/7

Sounds like Europeans need to step up on being a dumpster fire if they want as much coverage as us. Be the change you want to see in the world!

[–] Wats0ns 48 points 1 year ago

Hey well seems that most of EU is working on it sadly

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Between Meloni, Órban, PiS, the True Finns, etc. I think there are plenty of dumpster fires

I can only inagine how sick of hearing his name europeans are, I've been sick of it since 2015 and I'm American. Honestly at this point I just want to go one whole day without hearing his fucking name. I can't think of one other person that applies to in politics, celebrities, anything.

Honestly I'm more sick of hearing of Musk by now. At least with Trump there's a sadistic part to me that keeps wondering how low reps can go, but with Musk, I'm just sick of him. I don't care about his little tantrums at all and every little shit gets hundreds of upvotes.

In the same timeframe, we had Brexit which was our own local annoying piece of never ending shitshow

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001 20 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

See this is my biggest gripe on people complaining about Trump.

During brexit my feed was full of Boris memes and news. It was really fucking weird watching two different countries get fucked by a fat old man with fake blonde hair

Extreme incompetence is news worthy.

Try being Canadian. We've lost all sense of self-identity here

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I knew you guys were screwed when i read about Canadian screaming about "the 1st amendment" when getting arrested by the police.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We talk more about Trump here than our own politicians.

And our politicians are Trump supporters.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

This is so accurate you could use it as a scope to shoot a fly from a rat ass all the way from across the next town.

American local news cycles from city to county to state to national, and then starts over again.

American national news is just one outrage after another.
