Please do not judge all of America by the actions of our leaders. We understand what you understand. Our democracy is under the attack of authoritarian forces. They are dominant in American propaganda outlets.
Like you, we see the insanity. We are in the middle of it. You have the luxury to observe from the outside.
We are doing everything in our power to fight and defeat these forces. We do not want to live under a dictator. We are not uneducated about the history of authoritarian governments. We understand what confronts us.
Please do not give up on the American people.
I agree with, and appreciate, the sentiment of your message up to "You have the luxury to observe from the outside"
For good, or bad, the office of POTUS impacts the whole world, and your "allies" in particular.
It is somewhat painful to have to experience the insanity that your administration imparts on those of us, outside the USA, who have no electoral input.
Yes, we can only observe; it is certainly not a luxury.

(115,060 posts)"Luxury" is probably not the right word. Perhaps I should have said the "freedom" to observe?
