As someone who lives in the US and works in parks and conservation this just makes me sad, because there's so much natural beauty here that's either being actively destroyed by our government or boycotted because of our government. I used to love showing off this country's nature and landscapes to people. Now I wish I could boycott the place too

ICE is gleefully plotting the kidnappings of every visitor.

We would be smarter under proportional representation.

Here's the thing. I follow US politics but like, the whole "you're not hurting the right people schtick" is wearing thin on me. I don't care. Sort your shit out. We're losing businesses on our end too due to this shit. We're going to look after ourselves because obviously you guys (the dems) aren't. These Dems don't seem to want to help us ... they want business as usual and that shouldn't be what we're going to be encouraging.

Also the messages they send are weird, it's like, if you come here and can make it through border security and don't get captured by ICE ... we'll give you a 15% discount!

I posted this elsewhere. Seems appropriate here too:

Democrats are the kinder, gentler face of American fascism. Don’t forget it was St. Obama, winner of the Nobel Prize for Not Being George Bush (formerly known as Nobels fredspris or Nobel Peace Prize in translation), who presided over the War on Iraq (yes, he “ended” it, but then started it up again) and the War on Afghanistan while adding bombing attacks on Libya and Syria (and increasing by an order of magnitude the drone strikes on Pakistan and Somalia). There has never been a brown-skinned person the Democrats weren’t content with bombing or shooting abroad, even when the president was brown-skinned.
