    The only advice I have, as a non-therapist, is the same I’ve said to many in your shoes…

    If you go now, you will miss the party. It will be a worldwide party, with fireworks, etc, when Trump passes.

    The memes will also be amazing for weeks.

    You don’t want to miss the party!

    Why the fuck are you suicidal if you’re in the US? You’re not the ones being invaded. Talk about making things about yourself. You should be sabotaging your country’s war efforts.

    A fundamental choice we get is when to stop playing the game. Fuck moral panic. A mature person can choose for themselves as a mater of bodily autonomy. Of course it’s not always a good choice, and there are consequences, but sovereignty of the soul is a hill I’ll die on. Heh.

    I’m just sick of all the political junk.

    Trumps a dipshit, all politicians are liars. Maduro was a tyrant in a country full of corruption and massive human rights violations. Two wrongs don’t make right but at the same time doing nothing isn’t right either.

    Edmund Burke: “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”

      “Doing nothing isn’t right either” aka, you are cool with trump kidnapping world leaders he doesn’t like and bombing world capitals without any congressional approval/oversight?

      Yeah, fuck this comment so hard. Trump’s more of a tyrant than maduro is: he’s a convicted felon and literal pedophile, so what gives him the right to invade another country?

      This shit makes my blood boil. I am giving NO ROOM to any jerk giving trump a pass to shit on international law and the Constitution.

    I have only talked to one Venezuelan, she is not going to miss Maduro.

    Still something very dubious to do that they did not do because of the plight of the Venezuelan people.

    I hope (but don’t really expect) that the Trump admin figured out approximately what will happen after he is gone. A decade of civil war or cartels dividing up the country won’t make anything better.
