@thekitze And everything under the hood is a box connected to the internet. Actually everything under the hood is just rocks and electricity, we should start from there.
@ctjlewis Ie: you're already doing it in America, and that's not even looking at state laws that are sometimes even more restrictive.
And not even looking either at in person violent speech, this is just online.
@NapoleonBonabot@marionumber4 Have you been to Europe?? Democrats are at best centrist to right for western + northern Europe. Maybe closer to centrist for southern Europe.
Democracy in the US has been in decline for a long time, if US doesn't remember that freedom doesn't exist without democracy, the same diseases will continue to spread and take control of Europe, ending up destroying the peace that much of Europe achieved post WW2.
Most far right party in western Europe (Reform, RN etc.) are teletubbies in compared to the Republican Party.
GOP want to be (and have been pushing for decades) an autocratic government, powered by unprecedented amount of hate, violence and corruption.
It's not looking good.
Normally I'd be thinkin just muricans being murivans, but it seems pretty clear a GOP / trump gov will not care for other western nation and do whatever makes them money and keeps them in power (aligning themselves with other autocratic governments like Russia, China, UAE etc.)
Hundreds of speeches over the past 10 years that would have disqualified any other opponent in any other first world country because it showed profound idiocy (not talking policies, just base level common sense and intelligence)
Republicans made sure 70% of the US population had abysmal level of education (and empathy), and it paid off because that part of the population now better relates with a president that's as dumb as them.
Most teenagers in the rest of the western can do more intelligible speeches that his guys.
America is a truly unseriois country

MAGA: Trump is a more powerful speaker than Obama.
Trump: “Where there’s so much water, you don’t know what to do with it. You know, it’s called rain. It rains a lot in certain places. But uhhhhhh, no. Their idea. You know. Did you see the other day, they just put, I opened it up and they closed it again. I opened it. They close it. Washing machines to wash your dishes. There’s a problem. They don’t want you to have any water. They want no water…”
