    Exactly. Wow at least one American that gets it. Mostly. The part where elections happen is for some reason a big mental block that almost everyone seems to have. You keep hope I guess but no way is that happening on this trajectory.

    That’s why I said “you better get phone numbers”, ir the protest itself is toothless, so hopefully everyone was making the most of it.

    I fucking love seeing all the downvotes when reality bites. Just so you know, downvoting on social media is not going to save your country, and your eternal optimism (read: blatant naivety) will be…nay, IS… your downfall.
