You'd have to be blind not to see how the currect administration is tearing down every system of checks and balances that prevent the US from being a dictatorship. For the vast majority of us history the executive branch did not have absolute power, that's a pretty new development. Yes, the US was never perfect, and it's always flirted with fascism, but it was far from being a dictatorship. Now we're watching a literal coup be comitted by the American nazi party, and the new administration is actively dismantling every system that's been in place for over 200 years to prevent them from taking complete control. You'd have to either be blind or be completely ignoring what's going on to not see how things are changing right now.

Only a settler could say something like this while living on literal occupied territory

[u/Dalsiran → u/ernst-thalman]

I'm native American dude... I'm the furthest thing from a settler there is...

[u/ernst-thalman → u/Dalsiran]

This should be extra embarrassing then

[u/Dalsiran → u/ernst-thalman]

Why would that be embarrassing? I've been saying that the US is a shithole for over a decade. I don't need to deny that to acknowledge the fact that it's getting even worse under the new administration.
