Isn't there going to be a very big change to US government come january?
Honestly, simply put, imo, no. The same rich and powerful are going to be in charge then. Even more so. I’d argue that the incoming government even guarantees that there’s no peaceful, legal, pathway to reform.
And what are they gonna do except continue to line their pockets while we all suffer.
Most armed country in the world. Continue to fuck around and you will find out. I can’t believe it took this long.
Towards authoritarianism and dictatorship and away from democracy, yes.
So change is possible if you gather sufficient votes?
In the US? No.

So nothing is changing in january?
So black and white that I don't manage to appreciate murder, apparently :)
In my way, I see that as a good thing.
Even in self defense, to me, killing someone is last resort.
I get robbed at gunpoint: i give them my wallet.
I get attacked for reasons beyond my control (gaybashing for example): i'd try to run, as it's usually a group of people. I'd cry for help. I'd try to inflict enough pain to get away.
I'm at war. I don't want to be at war. I also noticed people larping here, like they want to be in a war. To me that's crazy.
I get wormholed back to baby hitler: Wouldn't kill him. Would encourage him often to persue arts.
More specific to this case: it's not self defense if you stalk a person then kill them, in my opinion.
That's incel turned rapist/murderer thinking, in my opinion.
Stalking someone, to then kill them. That's incel turned rapist/murderer behaviour, to me.
I've genuinely only seen people enjoying murder, saying it's great because they don't like the murder victim.
What nuance am I missing, that's not encompassed by: "they don't like the murder victim"?
There's not really a question left.
I'm glad you get to feel good. Good for you.
Sad someone got to die for you to feel good. Have you tried hiking?
I'm sure Trump's concepts of a plan will fix healthcare in this country. Yup, definitely should have just waited for daddy Trump to give the healthcare industry a spanking. He's definitely not a slimy conman who will just let the insurance industry line his pockets like every other politician.
