  Yeah I go to Japan fairly often for work, and they still teach peace in school. That'll never happen here, though, and Gael thinks the American people simply have to suffer horribly before they'll start to care. (She believes the only thing that can make unempathetic people empathetic is to suffer and become miserable themselves. In which case, maybe the future in the US will be brighter, because those dumb mean MAGA folks are about to suffer greatly... along with everyone else in the US!)

  yeah, they do have a tendency to shoot themselves in the foot. But it's not all of them. I think the problem is it is the most vocal of them. It'd be nice if I could go live in Japan or somewhere for 3 years. I do feel it's going to get worse before it gets better and there's a possibility they will overthrow the constitution somehow in which case the USA will be gone. I hope you do well wherever you're going. I envy you a bit. sighs.

  I don't think that really works tho -- suffering = empathy. It may work on some people but I think a lot of people go into blaming mode. Like their suffering is caused by someone else. Trump understand this and deflects people from blaming him by pointing his finger at other groups; so their anger is focused on the others and he still seen as their hero. He is very effective at that. It's what makes him scary. Hitler had the same skillset.

  Yeah, I agree. If people have to follow a cult figure, I don't see why they can't follow someone who's not a bully. I don't understand people equating being a bully with strength. And then they start copying that behavior becasue they think it makes them look strong. So not my thing at all. I think we need peace training starting in elementary school like Japan had. I don't know if they still do it tho.

  Yeah the average MAGA is pretty stupid, that's for sure! But you know what? I still didn't want them to suffer the economic hardship they inflicted on themselves by voting for conservatives. But now? After electing the Orange Despot, and proving they're mean as well as stupid? Well, they can go f$!% themselves. We're out of here... 😬

• @faerierealm · May 31, 2026

  No, it's not all of them. Some of them are just dumb, not dumb and mean. But the lack of empathy in this country is a huge problem, and is absolutely contributing to its downfall. I hope the US doesn't descend completely into despotism, for your sake and everyone else decent in this country...

• @CaylaCatz · May 31, 2026

  well, I hope she's right but I doubt it. But I do think 50% of the country care and are nice. Unfortunately they are not leading right now. It's like the movies. Time for King ARthur to rise up except he's Brit... hmmm. Paul Bunyan? laughing.

• @faerierealm · May 31, 2026

  Yeah need a progressive candidate who looks and dresses like Paul Bunyan haha.
