This is honestly the first time I’ve seen pretty much anything about it.

    Sent this to my mother, who probably thinks I’m full of hyperbole when I talk about how we’re seen around the world.

        I’m sorry, do you normally see people protesting leadership in other countries when they get elected? Perhaps I didn’t notice that Americans were out in droves protesting the election of Kier Starmer. /s

        Starmer is a shitbag, btw. I’m not trying to support him with the above comment.

          Yes? Lots of people marching together, worldwide protested Nicolas Maduro, venezuelan dictator, after stealing the elections and declaring himself the winner

          After Obama and Biden got elected, they also got protests in all south America and Russia if I remember correctly

          After the Iranian elections, there were massive protests worldwide as well.

          After da Silva and Bolsonaro got elected in Brazil, they also got worldwide protests.

          Same with Bukele in el Salvador, same with Milei in Argentina. Same with Netanyahu and Palestine.

          Maybe there is people living abroad who are still citizens and care about the country? Or people who just don’t plain agree. But there are.

          It’s not something new, certainly not abnormal , obviously not all countries protesting, but it happens. Still, it’s not like the whole planet is protesting against them. People have shit to do
