Why are people not rioting in your country, that’s the question from those of us outside it? So much objection but no action. But take up arms to massacre some school kids, sure - that happens every day and only takes 1 white guy to get out of bed. A land of contradictions and weaknesses. - ThreadSky

We have mass protests happening all over the country try but the media is not covering them in real time. The media is making to seem like the only people mad are democrats. We have different media markets in this country too, so Trump supporters literally get different news

Perhaps you can share the protest news…where is your CIA, your FBI, your military? Or are they all compliant. Very troubling

A lot of people have take. To uploading to YouTube. And sadly, all of those areas are in full compliance. That’s what is so scary. We stacked his cabinet with sycophants who will carry out his full agenda. We are pretty much hostages in this country right now.

It only takes 1 departure for the deck of cards to fall.

We know that once we go to streets en mass he will invoke the insurrection act which will allow him to use the military to kill us. He currently controls CIA, Military, FBI, Congress and intelligence. People are getting their affairs in order.

I get it. But according to the constitution you’ve all been so devoted to, many Americans are comfortable with guns around them and in the family home. A daily risk of death, but now people are afraid? To us, we cannot understand either of these scenarios.

I’m not sure why you are on this page attacking us - those of us on this page DO NOT agree with our gun laws. We have been afraid of sending our kids to school for decades. I cannot understand the madness and I live here. Please stop telling us the things we have been saying all along

Not attacking at all, these are merely questions. One can’t assume everyone thinks the same way, America is very divided and that division affects the world. I wish you luck, forbearance and strength.

You're not wrong. People in this country currently have the luxury to turn off the TV and ignore it all.

tweetfrankie.bsky.social•39 days ago

Yes but unfortunately I think many Americans are just focussed on surviving. But something is very wrong.

Many of us are exhausted with the constant deluge of lies and gaslighting from Trump, et al. His followers aren't evil. They're worse. They're nihilistic. How do you deal with someone who doesn't care if their own house is burning down, as long as it takes down some "woke" folks as well.

It’s really tragic. Let’s hope the only way is up

flashrookie.bsky.social•39 days ago

Many of us tuned out after the election. Trauma response. Instead of Trump being held accountable for all of his crimes, he was rewarded with the election. Some here think we deserve this b/c the majority voted for him. Will today's debacle at the WH move the needle? IDK, but it was really bad.

:(( it’s a lot to digest, so it’s a very human response to switch off for a bit

We’re waking up, Kathy, I hope. You’re absolutely correct. Where are the protests? Silence implies complicity or apathy. We can’t be silent, America.

Solidarity to you and all those who recognize that this is not democracy in action, but failed a businessperson manipulating government for their own enrichment. And that includes Musk and his 30b+ subsidies, not just Trump the multi-time bankrupt.
