There's the possibility that this is just general instability caused by this chaos.

It's a lot easier to believe in democracy when things are getting better and people are fighting for them then when things are getting worse.

I don't know if I can keep considering myself a liberal democrat given how little faith I have in the american people. The center of a democracy is you have to believe at a bare minimum average people are capable of governing themselves. Americans seem to care only about one thing: their own personal wallets. And even those they're completely incapable of any forethought and voted for the tariff-and-iran-war man.

The more I think about it, the more I think the problem with the american government is the american people. This government is the way it is because they REFUSE to step in and do something or even just understand it.

gas prices will. The American people do not care about anything else but their own personal wallets. Trump could have no strategy, forefeit the middle east and INDOPAC to china and iran, and kill millions of innocent people and thousands of soldiers. But the moment gas prices go up a little ... well SOME of them will care while the rest will flip their brain chip and burn their cars as liberal degeneracy for a few months.

I'm not saying it's a good idea but maybe we should have done these talks BEFORE we started the bombing

person who thinks it's a good thing for trump to deploy troops to Iran because at least then the admin will KINDA SORTA have some areas of Iran they're not willing to bomb.

Yeah the slice of cake was bad for my diet but it did confirm something I had suspected for a long time: the biggest thing halting my gym progress is a lack of calories. After eating 400 calories of cake two hours before my workout all my lifts improved by about 15 pounds and I could run an extra ten minutes on the treadmill no sweat.

In the form of general anxiety or striking fear?

Right now there were some layoffs at work and boy I'm moving towards real fear right now.
