alt Hacker NewsThe USA is governed by evil people, and the people of the nation are too stupid and expecting someone else to stop them. Plain as day light.

In the USA's defence, the system that put these gangsters in charge also gives it a shot at changing course in a couple of years.
Honestly, despite having a wife from the US (not an US citizen anymore), I agree with you.
It is really weird to me that such a thing as lobbying can be legal. Or the fact that you can donate to an election campaign so that they have more money to influence people.
And it is even more surprising that the vast majority of US people don't even question these things. I have the theory that American exceptionalism hinders their critical thinking when it comes to these kind of subjects. Ie "If we decided to do it like this, it means is the best way possible".
149 days until Jan 3, when new representatives are seated.
I'm baffled why Germany would allow this, you'd think they and the rest of Europe would understand the importance of energy independence at this point.
It really is. “This is bad. When will someone stop us?”
No, we're not expecting someone else to stop it. We voted for this. The evil is not imposed on us. It is us.
Not everyone, but a majority. The minority is looking for ways to stop it, but it requires getting literally everyone else to work together. Which means any disagreement among them results in a loss, and more of the same evil.
