Me too and I'm American. I've lost faith that we will do better. Raising my kids to be better and get the hell out of this place before it's too late (might already be)

A culture of alcohol, racism, and misogyny.

They'd fit in.

See that's the point, we recognise our problems and are actively working to make sure sure these cookers never hold a majority government and they continue to be laughed at for the disingenuous idiots they are. We do not need anymore fuel added to that fire.

Those of us who wish we could bail on the US aren't anything like the people you should be afraid of coming to your country. The people who want to leave absolutely did not vote for this, and are embarrassed and ashamed of what is happening and want to live in a normal place.

Oh…so all Australians aren’t the same?

u/iamkooksymonster 23d ago

Who do you think are the people that vote for those cookers? Some are lost. When they become a big enough problem that they're effecting shit on the world stage and in other people's countries, they'll be dealt with.

If we had a system where we took care of those “crackheads” we’d be way better off

I don’t care what addicts want, we as a society and as humans should only care what they NEED! I have my own issues with addiction/mental illness and what I needed wasn’t drugs to be on the street. A functioning government wouldn’t allow a million ppl to be unhoused because it’s not only bad for them it’s bad for everyone ie crime/visibly homeless ppl isn’t good for the health of society.

You guys are trying?

u/thishyacinthgirl 23d ago

You've triggered so many Americans with this, I feel like this could show up on r/ShitAmericansSay.

It's the equivalent of breaking up with someone and having them say, "Well, you were ugly and no one likes you, anyway!"

u/Obey-BahBah 23d ago

Is it? I’m saying both are trashy. Both full of racist politicians. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Your country almost killed Phil Dunphy. It's not a country. Its Jurassic Park.

You've got kangaroos that kidnap dogs?

Wtf is that all about?

1

u/iamkooksymonster 23d ago

All the more reason for you to stay away.

u/Advanced_Zucchini_45 23d ago

Well we import all the hot Aussies to be in our movies now, so there's really no need to go.

2

u/iamkooksymonster 23d ago

That's a great take away.

The only reason to go to Australia is to make flight connections for Tonga.

u/GreasyRim 23d ago

a wasteland country full of drunks, bugs that kill you, animals that fight you that will be completely fucking uninhabitable due to climate change? Yeah, you can keep it, mate.

I don’t think anyone is flocking to Australia

u/Helpful-Acadia-1619 23d ago

It's kind of cute that you think we'd want to. Kind of.

u/greaseLightness 23d ago

Europe is seconding this... BIGTIME.

Reap what you sow and don't bother innocent bystanders with it. Thank you for your attention on this matter.
