In that case, you’ve re-earned my respect (some of you).

I get you’re economically shackled already, but I just don’t believe the ‘too big/diverse to strike’-argument.

It just needs to start somewhere. And it probably evetually will now your president really fucked us all over.

I wouldn’t not protest to save the economy now, since that is out the window.

I don’t know if occupy accomplished anything, but the George Floyd protests were massive.

Americans can protest. I just don’t get the late stage capitalism stockholm syndrome.

I’m not asking for all of you. Just the ones that doesn’t want this to happen.

Will do.

But could you all please like do a general strike, or lock down cities by protesting this shit?

Sure but counting on this as a forever state of the US is … risky.

This is wild. Russia claims to feel threatened by Nato and then attacks Ukraine. But Americans in Greenland is not a threat to them?

This is all bollocks.

If you can’t leave social media, then at least follow something that bores you today. It will make you less addicted and their data less valuable.

I could totally see the US blaming europeans not Russians, if this was proven a GRU operation.

This would be wild if it was done by russian agents to stir tensions between us and EU.

It probably isn’t. But damn.

I’m conflating things by sarcastically pointing to the fault lines that should be there between two opposite entities? That does not make sense.

I know you’re not all represented by this regime. I’m wondering why we see no large scale protests for those of you not liking this.

What do you mean they’re mutually exclusive?

I’m all for you guys getting of the couch, and I’ll be happy to hear about your protests?

The rhetoric is probably because your leadership is backstabbing its allies, allying with dictators and removing rights and dignity for its own citizens. But I’m just guessing.

So Americans CAN protest!

This is a horrible idea.

Thank you for the reply. The thing is, and I think this will apply to others too, I’m just a casual user. Unknown boxes scare me.

Couldn’t they be hidden away on signup (prefilled) and only visible when you click ‘advanced’.

Also, I have a mastodon account too. Are they now the same thing?

Instances - what are they and how does it work together. Also slow password reset emails. I have three accounts now.

I still don’t really understand but i am in 🤷‍♂️
