    I appreciate the cry for help, but this truly is an international problem that requires a domestic solution.

    If you will not calm your own tits, what makes you think you’ll tolerate the rest of the world calming your tits for you? How long would this external tit calming be required? what happens when the external source of tit calming stops?

      Try to see it for what it is: the Americans you would wish were in charge have had their power and representation stripped away, and an empire has been brought low. Americans used to be quite proud, and this sort of sentiment from one would have been unimaginable twenty years ago.

      You’re probably correct that external forces aren’t going to effect instant or significant change. Empires come down in a specific way, usually for internal reasons, right?

      The end of an empire is too big for any one person to feel like they can have an effect. We’re all just caught in the gears of history.

      Germany? Y’all just… pretend like that never happened? I guess it’s not just the fascists that forget how bad it was. Well, since you forgot…

      Germany didn’t deal with its own bullshit and neither could Europe because they waited for the Germans to deal with their own tit calming and it was too late.
