    Look at history. You need a tipping point, but more importantly, you need organised masses and a vision/visionary to get behind.

    That’s how Lenin got in power. It’s how the French decapitated their king. That’s why there was a rally at the White house when trump lost the previous election but nobody is doing anything against him now at the states while he dismantles the country.




  • Thinking that individual European countries have local identities and states or others don’t is absolutely a lack of understanding and not a lack of context.

    That’s not at all what I said. It’s in fact the opposite and because of that I said I can’t argue with most of your previous points.

    On your latter point, I do lack some understanding on the native reservations, but as far as I know they’re still under the governance of the US to some extent. My assumption was they can at least participate in the ‘democracy’ which affects them immensely. It’s very sad that’s not the case…


  • I can’t and don’t want to argue with your point, however in the faceless internet space unless you specify you speak from the name of a specific subgroup, the blanket ‘American’ is implied. It’s not a lack of understanding, it’s a lack of context.

    Contrary to that Europe doesn’t have one cohesive identity, your example of Orban is multiple country borders removed from me personally. I don’t have the power to vote for/against him or influence that country in any way, where that’s different in your case.
