    American culture, values, and ethics are in a decline.

    Everyone sucks in the entertainment news, repeats it, and acts like they are doing something other than being a worthless American consumer with no real point to their existence. Living the same lifestyle that made this bullshit and acting as if you are somehow don’t have a hand in the shithole that it’s become.

    “You” includes me too…

    We have no control, not even traction to be able to get us out of this ditch. We lived stuck up and privileged for so long we think someone will save us. We believe we won’t have to go to war for ourselves at some point. In truth we probably already should have decades ago if we lived with the future of genuine authentic and honest humanity in mind. Now we have army’s we funded out of naive insecure fear that own our lives and subtract the essence of human life from existence.

    Uhm. I feel like I read this headline once a week. For over 6 months now. So it clearly is bullshit.

    We had a whole plethora of psychologists and psychiatrists saying this during his first term. No one who can do anything about it seems to care. Not even those voters who could swing elections if they actually got off their asses and went to the voting booths 🤷‍

      (Non-american observer)

      Who cares what psychologists and psychiatrists say. Trump’s first term, Biden’s 2nd term alleged run and Trumps 2nd term showed us that not a single fuck is given when parties made their choice in a running candidate. Bunch of old, rich and out of touch people are running US and no common sense will change this.

      I don’t know, he is definitely not a smart or strong man like he likes to portray.

      Age hasn’t done him any favors, but he really wasn’t smart or well spoken before. He was kind of always a turd and he pretty much still is.

        Age and dementia have a way of making people the worst of what they were.

        Now, if you start from a low point and go into deep decline…

      Professional psychologist explains the issues, in depth.

      “I don’t believe it.”

      Bet you don’t believe in vaccines either.
