For right or wrong, I think Europeans are looking at what the opposition party in the USA is doing, as those are the entities that lead anti-authoritarian movements in Europe.

We have the Democratic Party.
The idea that there are no protests in the US and no one is standing up to Trump is proving incredibly hard to kill over here in Germany. It’s become dogma, utterly detached from empirical reality.

I wonder if the people who keep talking like that understand they’re perpetuating regime propaganda.

Fucking police state bullshit.
New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

In fairness, he's making completely different and far worse mistakes
Q: Polling shows a majority of Americans don't feel the economy is doing well. Are you worried you're making the same mistake as President Biden?

TRUMP: No, I hope I don't make the same mistake as him. We inherited a terrible, terrible mess.

Mexico last year streamlined its procedures to make birthright citizenship easier to claim for those born outside of Mexico.

IMO, it's obvious both countries are trying to encourage immigration from the USA, home to large numbers of people who can claim Canadian or Mexican birthright.
Big news: Canada changed their citizenship rules and now if you've ever had a direct ancestor who was a citizen, you are now automatically a citizen too! www.canada.ca/en/immigrati...

I've been sharing this around, and I know a few people who've discovered they're now Canadian citizens!

There was revulsion at the USA during the Iraq war. But nobody ever thought NATO would break over it, and there definitely was no threat--either express or implied--that the USA would refuse to come to an ally's aid under Article 5 of the NATO treaty.

Trump is engaging in a foundational betrayal.
The vibe shift in the EU and Canada over the weekend is unlike anything I've ever seen. US hegemony in military and economic alliances is effectively dead. History will look back and wonder how the elites in power not only did nothing to stop it but cheered it on willingly.

i feel like the viral bus thread resonates because at every step of the way you're like "ok surely this will be resolved shortly, any second now," which seems like what all the passengers are also thinking. then the fact that the situation doesn't resolve and the bus just keeps going is an Allegory

I'd be willing to bet 95% of people have no idea who the person in this PSA is; they probably assume it's a random model.

Trump is there because enough white folks lost their natural minds when one Black man dared to govern them. Again, what exactly do you all think a Black man can do to convince a bunch of Klansmen not to be Klansmen?

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.

And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

at some point you have to see it as a psychological issue. the people who run this country are cowards. the media who reports on them are cowards. they have never been able to face what is happening, they are committed to a project of persuasion: pretend everything is fine and it magically will be!
The president is a mad king threatening war against America’s closest allies because he’s got a psychological fixation on an empty frozen island and a Nobel Peace Prize snub and the best the media or opposition can manage is “Trump changes America’s priorities, perhaps for the worse”

This really is it. There is a very small handful of Democratic House reps who sense something is very very wrong but the vast majority are treating this multilayered crisis as something within the realm of normal.
Real problem that no one in Washington seems to believe that it can all fall apart.
