Location: CA, USA
I have some neighbors who regularly have a huge bash lasting all night long - it’s happened every Cinco de Mayo for nearly a decade.
This year - nothing.
The whole town is quiet. This used to be one of the noisiest days of the year. Is anyone else noticing this in their community?
The why (ICE) is pretty clear. I was really more interested in where - how widespread is this?
Because honestly, the silence is chilling. It feels like the day is being smothered in this blanket of lukewarm fear.
Honestly all the holidays were a bit muted for 45 so it makes sense they’re even quieter for 47. There’s even more fear, anxiety, anger, etc. Not the things that really drive a party atmosphere.
What do the numbers mean?
Trump as 45th and 47th president
I see, that’s probably something only Americans would generally understand :D
Ahh yeah I probably getting deported. I wasn’t suppose to tell a non American 😁
That’s the last civics lesson you’ll be teaching around here, pal.
45th and 47th presidents of the United States. Which in this case are the same person
“person”
You know I seriously considered trying to find a more accurate word. I should have.
Situation?
I believe you. It’s okay. It isn’t worth it. 🫂
OK, USA. Meant to add that. Definitely quieter overall.
