Ob er here, People trust the government and although they may complain, in the end they see the politicians as their peers instead of enemies. Germany is naturally famous for its ”Realpolitik”: some things can’t be fixed so a realistic consensus must be achieved. In the USA this used to be possible, but it seems MAGA don’t like compromise 🤭

Here in Germany, a minority is, but most people I interact with are quite happy and trust the government. They do fear the right wing though.

I didn’t. I don’t live in the USA

Well, as a human being I can’t say this applies to me. Sure, some animals (like the jellyfish, sea anemones, and coral) defecate and consume food through the same orifice mainly because they lack a through-gut. instead they have a single-opening gastrovascular cavity. Some comb jellies also fall into this category, of ewhich one species, the warty comb jelly, seems to develop a temporary anus for excretion. I have no information about farting.

Look, if in Aussie land some bloke joins a protest, worse that can happen is that some Sheila throws a wombat or a bottle of Fosters at his head. In the USA, chances are a MAGA dumbwit (= overzealous Israel fan, per Trump’s orders) will get his sniper rifle and pick demonstrators off like empty Pabst Blue-ribbon beer cans on this here old fence.

Imma guessing most US Americans are doing the protest from the comfort of their own couch.

Never stop learning. Life is an adventure.

What is your nation? Perhaps the answer lies in the reason why I need to ask that question?
