    Where did I say we should focus on another country? Why does everything have to be black and white?

    There are shades in between ignoring and focusing on you know?

      “I can hear the echoes of people saying “why should I care about US politics?””

      I am one of those.

      Here on Lemmy there is so much US noise, I even started to downvote some posts and comment who are, in the end, just bitching around about a failed government when the problem I see in the US is actually a failed culture.

      This post’s original message may be a useful one, but not if you are focusing on what US did and should do, but rather what the rest of us can do in spite of the situation created.
