    Will Americans get tired of being pushed around? They seem to prefer helping the fascists by pushing each other around instead, judging by the repeated attempts on Lemmy to place everything Trump does squarely under the responsibility of the non-voters.

    From my outside perspective, they like acting as the victim too much to actually fight back.

      Bots aside, I think that’s because we’re the rabble, meaning we haven’t fully organized and activated, since successful rebellions align people toward a shared cause.

      Recruitment takes time, but I’d encourage you to be on the lookout for less infighting and doomerism from Americans around here. Once you do, you will know they’ve found a more appealing outlet for that energy, perhaps one that actually lets them do something about it.
