    Americans are too self-centered to care about little things like, oh, what kind of world we’re going to be.

      FYI, most non-US citizens of Lemmy wants US citizens to fight and die to secure the marginally better rights they have but didn’t have to fight for because it was won by their ancestors who were weighting them against must grimer fates. They know they wouldn’t risk death in the same situation. However, they think we are stupid enough to get bullied into it by them.

      They will also do exactly nothing to help and will provide no useful suggestions. If it is any consolation, the US is large and influencial enough that we will all go down together.

      If by “self-centered” you mean working class people just trying to survive while we have no control over what the wealthy people do above us to keep crushing us down, then ok.
