I hate that 2/3 of my fellow citizens support this, either directly or or tacitly by choosing not to vote.
I really hope the protest/non voters are happy with the outcome they chose. I can't wait to hear them tell me that Harris would have done this too! Anything to justify intentionally causing the suffering of more people....

Bombs are falling in the Middle East, but it is Americans who are in a nightmare? Lol.

No, the Americans need to be consistently reminded of what their government is doing so that there's at least the slightest chance they'll put a stop to it. They don't get to ignore the problem, it's their job to fix it. They are not babies to be coddled.
I have no clue what to do. I'm American. I'm trans. I voted for Harris. I live in a blue state. I've gone to protests. I've talked to state senators about legislation. I've canvassed. I've talked to Trump supporters and tried to get them to change their minds.
it all feels totally useless. nothing I've done has had any effect. my own mom voted for Trump three times. it's like being chained to an anvil and thrown overboard. I'm swimming but I'm still drowning.
Continue doing exactly that and convince others to do the same. It's a slow process but the only way to fix things.
You do know what to do and you are doing it! It's not going to magically solve everything but you are doing more than most people.

"Disteact [Americans] from the nightmare THEY are enduring"???
Well to be fair, there's no memes in the world that distract people living under the shadow of bomb and missile strikes.
Yeah. Keep them in the memes as to distract them from the dystopia right outside their doors.
Won't anybody think of the shareholders?
They are dragging the entire world into their insanity.
The rest of the world has to endure America.
Hmm
