    No, but at least you guys have your own (hopefully) functioning independent governments to at least try to blunt some of the damage/issues or come together with each other

    The best we got are the state governments, but what they can do is… limited

      Honestly, I’m afraid of the upcoming election in my country as well. Trump is a symptom of a global phenomenon

        global phenomenon

        A while back I read an article that posited that we might be in conservatisms last throes before death, that last burst of energy animals sometimes get before whimpering out.

        I like to think that’s the real global phenomenon and it’s a matter of getting worse before it gets better
