The fact it sounds so real really shows how crazy the current American term is.

The worst thing that can happen is nothing
Probably what’s gonna happen then. In a way I want the gop to win, because not, the rest of the world will cling on to hope that the US can recover and become at the very least as reliable as it was before. I don’t think it can
I really need people who say doomer shit like this to:
Reflect on whether their words encourage solution-oriented thinking, or doomer thinking
Learn emotional regulation
As an American I think the solution is for every other nation to work on excluding the the USA from everything they possibly can and get along without us. Trump’s administration has demonstrated that we cannot be relied on as trade partners, military partners, or anything else. Our word isn’t worth shit as long as our government is structured in a way that allows a new administration to come in and tear up everything that came before it. A blue wave isn’t going to fix things overnight. There is a hell of a lot of work to be done before we can be relied on again. It’s going to be years to fix things so we can be trusted again if it can happen at all.
I agree 100%
I’ll see what I can do for you, boss.
I am not an american but I can only assume from your butthurt comment that you are, so I hope you apply that solution oriented thinking and
lwill go and convince other compatriots to go and vote or protest“Butthurt” implies that I took your comment personally. I didn’t, because it wasn’t personal — it was a comment about the U.S., to which I feel no particular loyalty, and my issue with it is what pessimism like yours does when people express it out loud to strangers without offering solutions. Negativity akin to what you expressed has a paralyzing effect rather than a mobilizing effect.
Notice you answered my critique with a (poor) guess at the motivation behind my comment rather than a logical defense of your doomerism. Ad hominems only work on insecure people.
You literally said that you need me to do x and y. Y being learning emotional regulation. Now in your latest comment you also said you have an issue with pessimism like mine. When you discuss you and me that makes it obviously personal, so I’m not sure why the irony escapes you. However while a bit annoyed of this hypocrisy, the important fact is that you seem to have gotten lost in your own words and kept banging on about not providing a solution, when I clearly said voting and protesting would be the solution in a civilised society. I don’t know what else regular people can do, and I’m not hearing any suggestions from you either. Now go and do your civic duty and stop wasting peoples time on the internet with big words that mean nothing
