    Why do white people don’t know where they live?

    I’m confident that you live in the United States. Right?

    Why are white people afraid to say “United” States?

    The people who are asking for a secession from the US or “a national divorce”(looking at Taylor Green), do not understand the ramifications of what they are asking for. They are so privileged on their bubbles that they have 0 understanding of the chaos, the gore and tragedy of open armed conflict within a country with a population that has over 400 million weapons in circulation. Making everyone looking over their shoulders wondering “who’s side” are others on knowing the possibility of someone being armed is guaranteed.

    Most americans have never experienced real fascism (except for jews), so we don’t have the fear of it like europe does. So america can easily fall into it

    Eldridge Cleaver summed up why America matters to the rest of the world, and that was in 1968, when the Vietnam War was at its peak: “It is not an overstatement to say that the destiny of the entire human race depends on what is going on in America today. This is a staggering reality to the rest of the world; they must feel like passengers in a supersonic jet liner who are forced to watch helplessly while a passel of drunks, hypes, freaks, and madmen fight for the controls and the pilot’s seat.”

    Hello Fellow Humans,

    I truly hope we don’t have a civil war. But I truly think if Trump loses his cult will fight and we will have a civil war. Sorry to offend you cry babies but the far left is no help at all and the far right sees this. They are stock piling getting ready for war and you are all crying about gender not being real and pronouns. It is just insane how America has just become within my lifetime this mess that I can’t recognize.

    It’s funny how he praises journalists but in the actual movies, almost all journalists are really bad people. And very bad journalists.

    Alex Garland came across like he was caught on the way to catching a train and had to sit there to talk about his movie first.

    We in the United States are very entitled and have no clue what would happen if we had a civil war. No one would win, our way of life would be completely destroyed.
    My wife lived through a civil war and her birth country has never recovered, even 30 years later.
