These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,... whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.

Our current government literally just collapsed today so... yeah.

Yes but the mechanisms behind your electoral process are still there, and it isn’t one party rule for optimistically the next four years. USA might not be having anymore elections. The German situation is serious but it’s more of a fender bender than the all out full head on collision without seat belts that is the USA.

Oh yeah, that's way worse! But it doesn't make me very optimistic about Germany's future either, even without the Trump tragedy.
