Everyone jumps to help Ukraine but laughs at the implosion of the US. People are and will be dying from this shit show from illegal abortions, suicides, rogue LEO murders, drowning, starving, well the list goes on.

Don't appreciate being their "entertainment."

I am not feeling "entertained" by your list at all. I am scared for our young folks in this country. I do not know how they are going to clean up this hideous mess.

Typical American arrogance I guess. He was expressing a viewpoint that most in this country don't have. If youve never been to or know anyone overseas its easy to be locked into a narcissistic viewpoint of the supposed greatest country ever. Humor is a common way to deal with fear. Some may not appreciate being their entertainment per se but that was the point. WTF are you guys doing over there. Personally I find it extremely embarrassing. It truly scares the holy living shit out of them, cowboys with thousands of nukes electing fascists. Compared to Europe we're teenagers in this game and they quite see us as such. As he told me one time, the world was glad the kid got the bomb first because the kid was still innocent enough. But kids grow up.
