      As someone who lives in Europe and has never experienced Trump you need to check your privilege here.

      Pushing political apathy only causes harm for the poorest and most vulnerable Americans.

          Wrong again.

          I’m not an American.

          This being said I did live there for many years and saw the harm caused by Republicans first hand.

          Secondly yah. Russia and America waging aggressive wars is a major problem. Both need to stop. America was wrong in invading Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya. Russia is wrong for invading Ukraine, Georgia, and Chechnya. Imperialism is bad.

          But most importantly in the context of you here, you need to brush up leftist intersectional theory. You can’t avoid checking your privilege by trying to say someone else is (wrongly) an American.
