Not to mention he literally said before he was elected: "In four years, You don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good. You're not going to have to vote." https://www.c-span.org/clip/campaign-2024/user-clip-trump-in-four-years-you-dont-have-to-vote-again-well-have-it-fixed-so-good-youre-not-going-to-have-to-vote/5126048 -

Okay, it seems like a legit comment, sorry for before. -
oldhandle replied to oldhandle's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I do not because I've seen so many of that users posts where I cannot believe he's posting in good faith so either is a troll or just really truly sucks. -

Unless they feel it's wasted effort because they're unsure if the other person is just a troll. -
oldhandle replied to oldhandle's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Is this person a real poster? I have a hard time believing it's not a dedicated troll. -

Anyway I live in Europe. I never said anything about moving from USA to a country generally considered third world. -

Where are you from? The user BlessedLion in this thread moved from USA to Brazil and highly prefers Brazil. -
Your country is insanely morally corrupt. Must be exhausting trying to defend it on this message board all the time.

Weird post. Weird post. Obvious you're being sarcastic, but I'll reply earnestly. Not all of USA is like Orange Country, California or some idyllic place. If you're black in Baltimore, it's literally worse than Somalia. Quick internet search: "The murder rate in Baltimore is significantly higher than that in Somalia. In 2024, Baltimore recorded 201 homicides, marking a decrease from previous years but still reflecting a substantial rate of violence. Vox+8WYPR+8AP News+8 In contrast, Somalia's homicide rate is considerably lower. Between 2012 and 2015, the average rate was 5.6 homicides per 100,000 people. This is markedly lower compared to Baltimore's rate, which, even with recent reductions, remains significantly higher.TheGlobalEconomy.com Therefore, despite improvements in recent years, Baltimore's murder rate continues to surpass that of Somalia." -

Only Trumpers like this could be happy with the situation there. -

Maybe we can talk more about it, can I message you somewhere? I'm going to a Brazilian party tomorrow night -

Are you highlighting what these users said in the thread? "US is generally a country of "good weather". If all goes well - it is actually very good place. But if something goes badly - you get fired, sick, accident happen or something like that - HELL opens up. That’s a really good way of putting it. US is a good place if you’re rich or upper middle class. Not a good place to be homeless, poor, lower middle class, unhealthy, vulnerable, a minority, female, and the list goes on. Great place to be a white male, though!" Or what was I supposed to take from the thread -

Make your case as to why it's superior to live in America than Europe then -
oldhandle replied to oldhandle's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
*Gestures around at literally everything in America* lol -
oldhandle replied to oldhandle's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
I'm sorry but I can't take your posts seriously at all. Not sure why you're so offended and calling me privileged for being able to move, saying im running away and why you're so nationalist about USA -
oldhandle replied to oldhandle's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
"running away at the first sign of trouble" yeah there's only been one sign of trouble in america lol -

I moved to Europe, but I really love Brazilians, they're way warmer than Europeans and Americans. What city are you in and why do you like the vibe there? -
oldhandle replied to BlessedLion's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
In 2.5 years of living in Europe I have never seen a single car with a single sticker on the car of any kind expressing to the world the driver's political opinions. Not once. Not even something like those Coexist stickers. Nothing. I don't miss that about America at all, seeing cars just completely slathered with 200 different bumper stickers expressing every inane political opinion the driver has. I know this doesn't answer your question, but I can assume there are only a lot more of those these days. -

I'm willing to listen, please explain. -

Shaming people who leave the piece of land they were born in by random chance as if they owe it any sort of allegiance has less effect than you think, doubly so when it seems like you're admitting you left your own country yet are shaming others for doing the same in the same post. -

You really are rolling back previous comments you've made if you really think only 1% of people on Earth will be affected in any way shape or form by Trump. -

This guy wrote "If you moved halfway through the Biden administration or feel like you need to move now— you’re fleeing. You’re running away and your brain is being rotted by politics. " So I wouldn't take anything he says seriously.
