  • Yeah, most leaders here are busy tooting their own horns and aren’t focused on bigger geopolitics stuff yet… Like ffs, here in NL all they elected a right wing government and, surprise surprise, they’re shit at their job. Can’t get legislation passed, constant infighting, unpopular policies (for part of our population at least, unfortunately we also have a lot of idiots that voted for this), the list goes on.

    I wish that Europe would step up more. The European Union is quite good at doing things bigger picture but they’re very slow and bureaucratic at times, could be nice if they improved a bit on that.






  • Because he was elected in a landslide victory, the greatest victory of all time, the best result of a republican and the majority vote and people’s confidence is behind him /s.

    I agree, they’re being way too wimpy about it, arrest him now. You know that all this will instantly disappear the second he becomes president so if you don’t act now you’ve really let down your country.


  • Yeah it’s honestly insane how much of it there is. Even channels that appear to be completely innocent at first can suddenly start veering in this direction. I remember watching someone like CinnamonToastKen when I was younger and it always used to be very generic fun for everyone content. But the last few years I started catching on to him saying more and more right leaning, conspiracy theory type stuff.

    He made comments about the US (where he no longer even lives) keeps giving money to Ukraine instead of fixing their own problems, the “stolen election” and of course about Trump winning again. I really don’t understand why you have to make statements like that, you (on average) alienate about half of your audience by saying stuff like that. But oh well, a quick unsub and moving on.


  • This could have been me. For the longest time I was watching right wing YT channels without really realizing it because they were hiding their messaging well under legitimate critique of the movies and shows I was no longer enjoying. My girlfriend and I got into multiple arguments over this and I could tell that this was something we’d never agree on, which makes sense of course. Eventually I managed to pull myself out by unsubscribing from these channels ocne the messaging became a lot more clear (around 2021, you can probably guess why) and since then things have been much better between us and in general.
