I didn’t know what to expect. There was a healthy showing of people and overall pretty fun.

      Does it?

      If the us truly fails, the EU has 20-30 years tops. Imagine a trillion dollar firehose of right-wing propaganda because that’s what the EU will experience.

        Well of course it makes more sense for the citizens of a country to protest their government than for outsiders to do it. People sometimes do the latter but former is much more common and when it’s domestic politics being targeted especially then former makes a lot more sense.

          At any given moment the vast majority of citizens have no say or input in their government and they disagree with most moves the government makes. Why should it matter which side of a non-existent line they live on?

            People do have more at stake and opportunities to affect their local governments than outsiders.

              Local politics sure, this is continental politics at min, but realistically hemisphere- to global-politics. The United States is a gun pointed at the planet, Europe, Venezuela, Greenland, global trade, etc.

              Theyre currently patting themselves on the back for solving the Gaza genocide for at least a week but…that will end.
