Instead of apologizing. How about you invest in mutual aid?

I’m a homeless swer immigrant rape survivor who could use the redistribution of wealth

Don’t worry all the leaders in the world are coming to pay homage and beg for leniency to the liege of tariffs for undefined favors. We need to flush this freak.

nuvi-dk.bsky.social•5 days ago

Thank you for the apology, but you are not the ones who need to apologise. Instead get rid of Trump as fast as humanly possible.

anonymousenbi.bsky.social•5 days ago

any suggestions (quick/efficient)?

nemiesis.bsky.social•5 days ago

Just returned to from Europe and I would say the overwhelming sentiment people felt was pity for us. Outside the US I think most people understand that a majority of Americans didn’t want this.

curleeloc.bsky.social•5 days ago

Pity yes…But if a third voted for him and a third stayed at home and could not be assed to vote, then I think the majority won here.

jackiec123.bsky.social•5 days ago

There’s not wanting it, and being not bothered to vote. SMH

tj9701.bsky.social•5 days ago

Yes, and those are the people that need to apologize. Not John or those of us who kept telling them how important this election was. The morons that voted for him still are under a spell or something. But those that knew better and stayed hone should be ashamed. 😔

violetartnow.bsky.social•5 days ago

Thank you.

I assume the response will go something like this:

Dear Decent Americans.

We don't give a shit. We squashed our NAZIs and you elected yours. Fuck you.

ftwip.bsky.social•5 days ago

We could be tempted to say... legitimately

kafkablue.bsky.social•5 days ago

In our history books on WW2, how do we address the majority of Germans that didn’t vote for Hitler?

We don’t. We call them ppl of Nazi Germany. “Nazis” for short.

A few heroes are excepted: Mainly Niemöller.

And we remember the victims: Jews, LGBTQ, Roma, etc.

kafkablue.bsky.social•5 days ago

Now that protests in US are getting large, I suspect the protesters will be among the heroes.

The victims: definitely the people now sent to our death camps: immigrants. And the next wave: likely LGBTQ, some resistance fighters.

kafkablue.bsky.social•5 days ago

Who do we assign most blame:

Hitler and his enablers.

Equivalent to Trump, SCOTUS, McConnell, Cruz, M. Johnson, Bannon, Musk.

Gestapo? ICE and Proud Boys.

Deutsche Christen? US Evangelicals.

jonasnewscha16.bsky.social•4 days ago

Some people think that the Democrats are the ones responsible for why we've gotten here which I find to be aggravating.

kafkablue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Inside US? I agree. Yes, Dems are the only adults in the room, but that’s GOP’s failing.

Externally: they view us all as Americans, and hold us all accountable - to a greater or lesser extent.

jonasnewscha16.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'm not talking about the people outside the US, I'm talking about the fact that some people on the left that voted for Harris blame the Dems for why Trump won. In doing so, they are saying that the Dems are the ones responsible for why we're in this fascism mess now.

coatsieboy.bsky.social•5 days ago

The entire GOP for rolling over and showing their bellies, The RINO’s as dubbed by the cult of MAGA excepted.

Establishment D’s for no plan & status-quo maintenance.

The tech bro scroats/oligarchs.

Rupert: fucking: Murdoch.

Spineless amoeba Lindsay Graham & gaslight goon Gym Jordan in particular

bouldervoter.bsky.social•5 days ago

All this, yes but I'm not giving a pass to the RINO Republicans who left, either. They left because of Trump, but they could have handed the gavel to the Democrats on their way out the door. They own this too.

Any three Republicans could end this and could have ended this anytime.

coatsieboy.bsky.social•4 days ago

Very fair point, agreed. Invertebrates, all.

kafkablue.bsky.social•5 days ago

sayskevinfrombklyn.bsky.social•5 days ago

I'm not apologizing for the crimes of Donald Trump and the Republican party.

amaliatodorov.bsky.social•5 days ago

Yeah, not good enough.

pauldu.bsky.social•5 days ago

Thank You

chocolatefire.bsky.social•4 days ago

“We want you to know that this is not who we are.” Really??

I get the gist & the idiocy of the electoral college, but a majority of Americans won in getting trump, again, & despite knowing what an empty pos and fraud trump is 😡 Really hoping new alliances boom, cuz the trust won’t be back fast

kat86.bsky.social•5 days ago

You mean Americans right?

dickydoodoo.bsky.social•4 days ago

We understand and it’s not the fault of people who didn’t vote for it

drwitt.bsky.social•5 days ago

For extensive coverage of the protest or just plain truthful news reporting, check out MTN Meidas Touch Network. Its all the stuff Corporate media doesn't want you to see.

james156.bsky.social•5 days ago

Fuck americans are arrogant.

thelongblonde.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sadly, that will soon include the lives of all Americans living under this administration as well as those we have turned away and sent to foreign prisons.

jayden5445.bsky.social•5 days ago

Apologies, while nice, don't help. The world will tell you that it is OUR responsibility to take action, NOW, to remedy the situation.

nosliwsuz.bsky.social•5 days ago

Agree that it's up to us to remedy this awful mess, but apologies are always appreciated and show where we come from.

gracebatslast.bsky.social•5 days ago

Thank you for this beautiful, eloquent expression

ngerbasi.bsky.social•4 days ago

So very sorry, world 😔

refigman.bsky.social•5 days ago

Give us some time, ‘We the people’ of the United States of America 🇺🇸 will fix this insanity, punish those responsible, elected and appointed. It’s not gonna stay like this much longer without a required response. If Congress is wise, they’ll stop this shit show, If not soon, it’s 2nd Amendment time⚖️

bouldervoter.bsky.social•5 days ago

I'm not sure you realize how much that world we have grown up in and enjoyed is over. We have shown the world that America can turn control over to belligerent, aggressive and lawless criminals. Turn on our allies and embrace our enemies.

America won't be trusted for generations.

I was in Patagonia just after the election and felt compelled to apologize to some travelers I met “for what we’re about to unleash on the world.” I knew it would be bad but, in retrospect, really had no idea the extent of what exactly we were unleashing.

jackiec123.bsky.social•5 days ago

This takes some getting over. I don’t think I’ll ever forgive Americans for voting for him. My best friend (American) left and now lives in Spain. That was as a result of the first trump term. He’s taken to saying he’s Canadian, such is his embarrassment

jschm2681.bsky.social•5 days ago

Sorry to the world, but I didn’t vote for madman Trump.

lynnmanyfires.bsky.social•5 days ago

I add my compassion to that for the harm Trump and Republicans have caused innocent people.

trixiejt.bsky.social•4 days ago

We just couldn't overcome the Fox News, GOP messaging train. People's brain & souls apparently were too weak, blind to see. And here we are.

marcusdavies.bsky.social•5 days ago

We are sorry for you but we are not accepting apologies at this time.

handigirlgigi.bsky.social•5 days ago

So tired of hearing the apologies. That's just the truth.

Apologizing is good. Organizing is better.

roseinoregon.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sorry does not even begin to cover the outrage I feel about him.

scotiasheppard.bsky.social•5 days ago

Every time I complain I remind myself that while these are crazy and hard times, people are literally dying due to famine, lack of healthcare, genocide and being bombed out of existence. This is reminding me of my privilege of being born in a certain area due to luck really 😞

momowom.bsky.social•5 days ago

That’s everyone but the billionaires, now.

commonsensesoln.bsky.social•5 days ago

I accept your apology. But no apology is necessary. Crime is down, the border is closed, and the violence is only from one side, liberals burning Teslas. If you're worried about your 401k, it was smaller just two years ago. I recommend you relax and ignore life, like our former president.

saraswati2301.bsky.social•5 days ago

Yeah, crime is down and people are kidnapped on the street by masked ICE and transferred to shithole prisons abroad to never be found anymore. My savings are worth 10% less within just few days. The government and the major media stations are laying for 24 hours a day. But otherwise: pure happiness!

kanelawless420.bsky.social•3 days ago

The world has been way ahead of us, man.
This was quoted during trump's 1st term.
Basically.
