      You decide to take action. Please roll for initiative.

      rolls 1

      You slip and fall on banana peel. You ran out of action points.

      Ehh naw we just need to let it reset. The house of cards will crumble as soon as Trump croaks, then once ceaser is gone Rome will burn. Hopefully what comes after is better, but it probably won’t.

      Personally, my family came to this foreign land, that’s not ours, to seek out a better economic life and freedom. 2024 was the first election that the youngest voting generation went more conservative in the last 100 years. The beliefs of this nation no longer align with my own, so I’m returning back to Europe where my family once came in search of those very values. I realize a lot isn’t great there either, but I have more trust in the EU protecting my fundamental rights than I do the US Constitution.

      Failing that, at least Europe has better wine and I’ll just enjoy the view while the world ends.

        ^ this is the epitome of the “fuck you, got mine” mentality… you seem to think you have an out so every body else can go fuck themselves… you are not even going to try to spare most of the worst of it, you are happy to let everyone suffer because you think you have an out

        Good luck EU if this is what they are getting from the USA

        If you think europe is better you really haven’t been paying attention. This is a worldwide concerted effort.

        The time to do something was back a few decades ago… back in November there was a good chance to buy some time… now it’s all uphill but it will only get harder the more you guys keep on “waiting for it”

          There’s no waiting going on tbh. This is like a group project in college, there is no intent to do anything but hope others will resolve things for you.

            Yeap… but nobody is coming to save anyone

            And here is the problem… nothing that Trump is doing could possibly end in a better situation for the USA, so when the shit hits the fan and the inevitable depression hits, the USA will do the only thing it knows how to do (specially under Conservatives): they will blame some other country and go to war with it and this time, hitting Yemen won’t do it

            Right now I am basically only hoping WWIII is not fought with nukes… that’s my best 10 year scenario
