Today more Americans move to Europe than Europeans move to the US.

Send 'em back!

We don't need their guns and giant cars and private healthcare and crazy billionaires and inbreeding and Tom Cruise.

No, they are not welcome here, no sir.

@jgg @opny721 @eunews

We could do like them after WW2, and just accept the scientists and those of worth to us, regardless of beliefs or their actions during the given crisis.

That said, let's not be like them, since the thought sickens me.

@ekky @opny721 @eunews

The worst of it is most of them will be democrat voters.

This is going to make the MAGA rule even stronger.

@jgg @ekky @opny721 @eunews if they're leaving, they probably wouldn't have fought if they'd stayed. So I disagree a little. Especially since fascism has never been overcome via elections. Exactly 0 times in history.

@vex @ekky @opny721 @eunews

Well, the probability of Trump stepping down because a foreign invasion overthrows him is nil.

So it is US people fixing the problem, or trumpism ruling for a very, very long time.

And the last year has felt long enough.

@jgg @ekky @opny721 @eunews I'm getting the impression you think the US can't vote their problems away, but never in history has fascism been overcome via elections. Only force stops fascists. & People fleeing aren't going to use force.

@vex @ekky @opny721 @eunews

There is plenty of people saying the USA is not even going to have free elections anymore. The fact that the Republicans are doing everything they can to rig them says otherwise. Of course, an election with a ton of gerrymandering, voter supression, etc. is not exactly free, but Hungary has just clearly demonstrated that Trump could be dethroned if there is a modicum of freedom in the elections. Of course, that requires honest public servants and a lot of people's effort, but it can be done. People fleeing hinders that.

So force is not the only one thing that can overcome modern fascism.

The only battles you are doomed to lose are the battles you concede before they are even started.

The worst enemy of freedom is defeatism.

@jgg @ekky @opny721 @eunews honestly I should've just stopped engaging when I saw the watermelon & Ukraine flag, as though Ukraine hasn't given weapons for use against Iran & Palestine. Too many contradictions to expect solidarity with you.

@ekky @jgg @opny721 @eunews I'd happily have a few democratic Americans here if we can send off our share of extremist citizens from Spain/France/Germany/Poland/etc.

@txtx @ekky @opny721 @eunews

If we send there all the nasty people and bring here all their nice people, we will end up having a country populated by nasty people with the biggest nuclear arsenal on Earth.

We need nice people ruling the most powerful countries. Otherwise, we are going to be really fucked, wherever we are.

@jgg @ekky @opny721 @eunews Possibly this is what happened to Russia (brain drain+nuclear arsenal), so you may be right...
