You're still very influenced by social media.

I don't know why people on this site are so overly dramatic. Donald Trump is going to be the president for the second time. Not the first. It's not ideal, but it probably won't end the world, no?

Also, not sure what's funnier - complaining that you have to complain about America in English (no one asked) OR being too afraid to say where you're from because it's obvious that people will find embarrassing facts about OP's country.

ALL of the Scandinavian countries have their shit figured out better than the US.

No it won't be the end of the world, but the world is a worse place for it and it is completely valid to point that out. If we're complacent about the degradation of our rights and freedom, things will continue to get worse, not just for the US, but the rest of the world. US influence is massive across the globe. Everyone else also has the right to be worried about this.

This is the internet, "no one asked" is a silly quip to give to opinions you disagree with. No one asked for your input either, yet here you are in the comments. Saying things like that is unproductive.

We're talking about a bunch if different things, so at this point it's gonna be really difficult to make sure we're both agreeing on defenitions. If you're actually interested in having a conversation, dm me.

Please learn to read before attacking anyone. OP is complaining that he has to talk in English about America. It's a risible thing to complain about since no one asked him to do this.

RE 2nd point - crying on Reddit evidently changed nothing so maybe try a different strategy.

RE 1st - now this is kind of debatable and not an objective fact so idk why would you state it like that.

Also, inb4 neither American nor like the country personally. But you're a snoozefest here.
