Certainly not cheering on. I'm amazed at how fast things turned for the worse. Back in Reddit days the sheer fuckton of American politics posts and comments were overwhelming. Today it's full on ludicrous speed.

But I get it. Your comment makes me reflect. I'm not living there, I'm not experiencing it first hand.

As a human race we are fucked. I'm watching the "ww2 in colour" series at the moment, and seeing the rampaging and senseless death makes me sad. But hearing how the world came together to push back an opposite force gave me hope. If the same thing happened today, I don't think we as a race would be capable of such a feat again, and mostly because of all the infighting.

The world isn't dying. It's being killed.

Primarily by a few hundred people.

I agree with you completely. I wasn't trying to imply you were cheering this on. Just this shit administration and it's idiot supporters. I tend to look at "world news" vs "US news" just because I'm tired of this shit too.
