And there are still people defending Trump, saying he's a good president etc? It's only a matter of time before he's frolicking with Putin on a battlefield.

I was an hour ago, but now I'm back at my desk scrolling through Lemmy and Mastodon while following cycling (Volta ao Algarve) on my laptop. Social media manager sure is one hell of a job. I think I'll get another coffee

there's a certain orange guy overseas doing things that might make this "Army of Europe" a necessity. and why not? I'm pro EU. when we work together on all levels, we can be a strong force. and that includes military.

l'union fait la force!

Politics and social media both have a major impact on your life. Imo it's impossible to disconnect (pun intended) them from each other. Social media is basically the 21st century version of the town square. People talk about politics, that's just how it is

I'd like to understand what you're saying, but you're not saying much at the moment

Oh if you're into politics, it's very interesting to follow hahaha. It's definitely not ideal, but better than a two party system for sure. Also not that difficult of a system, but for outsiders it can be a lot I think. I also struggle to fully understand the American system, with the value per state etc. Forming a new government is fun and exciting, plus it gives you some hope that a terrible minister will lose his function four years later

And doing what you can is still better than doing nothing!

 

As an outsider (I live in Belgium) it feels very weird and dystopian to see everything happening in American politics with Trump and Musk.

On one side, it's very interesting and almost entertaining; on the other side, it's scary. I can't imagine what it must be like to live in the USA.

Americans, how do you cope? What's your take on the situation?
