It’s not alarmist: A second Trump term really is an extinction-level threat to democracy

Why a second Trump term is a mortal threat to democracy — though perhaps not in the way you think.

This article was posted shortly before the election but everything in there is still true and seeing his appointees perhaps worse than predicted.

    Just took that. Guess if it is from Australia or Scandinavia?

      Yeah, that invalidates your shit government, 🤣

      Get rekt

      Twice. Kek. Hey, insult all you want. I have a no-blocking policy. Mama raised me with a spine.

        Got a bit ashamed by me pointing out your mistake?

        You also can’t see a road. There is some paving, but none that’s broken. That’s two puddles and a patch of snow. So yeah, this isn’t Australia. It’s summer in Australia, and it’s not exactly known for snow in the winter either.

        You proposed a deal. I’m Nordic. Do I have the right to act as if we’re better than the US, as you promised?

        I haven’t attempted to insult you. I apologise for you thinking I did. Idk what you perceived as one?

          We’re so off base at this point, I’m not even sure why you’re arguing with me. Boredom?

          Since we’re really out of material, I’m out. You do you. Maybe we’ll make fun of eachother in another thread down the road,… a better road.

            One “I pointed out your mistake” later and you’re running with your tail tucked.

            Get rekt.

            So, to reiterate, like you promised, I’m allowed to act like my country is better than America?

                You said something that was incorrect.

                You might not want to take the L, but it doesn’t matter whether you accept it or not. You’ve still lost.

                  Buddy, there was never a game board, and the other guy made his piece out of poop, then you popped in, I mistook you for him (because you all look the same, not racist). We’ll have a real argument someday, with cursing and lots of mistakes if you stick around, trust me.

                    Get fucking rekt. Like an Aussie has any right to say they’re better than the USA. Go find a Norwegian and you got a deal.

                    “Get rekt” implies you think there’s a game. I don’t consider conversations competitions, but I know a lot of young people come to forums for that sort of thing. Now, if there was a game board, I won, seeing as how you’re saying that Nordics can say they’re better than the USA. And I’m Nordic. So… it is your opinion that I should be allowed to hold myself as better than the USA, right?

              Bud this is sad, come on.
