Go to Australia.  Japan is a fantasic place to visit; but when you live there it can become infurating.

Want to throw a chair away?  Go to the council office, collect a form, fill it out providing the excate size of said chair, post it back, wait for response, wait another two weeks for collection.

You are better off, buying an electric saw, cutting the chair up into small pieces and putting a little bit of it in a eight different public bins.  

Oh and the binmen wont collect any cardboard unless you flatten it, pile it up and then tie string around it to creat a nice neat package!

You'd think this assassination attempt would unite Americans. I mean, you'd think. Wouldn't you? You'd think it. I thought it might. Surely.

Unite Americans around what exactly? Trump is the same person he was before and still pushing the same divisive platform of cutting taxes & regulations for the rich & corporations, cutting spending on things like education, healthcare, infrastructure & safety net programs, rolling back rights for women, minorities & LGBT people, ignoring the affects of climate change and turning our backs on allies around globe.

Obviously the assassination attempt was wrong and I don’t think many people are going to try and defend it but no, I’m not going to “unite” around Trump.

The least America could do was unite around a power hungry narcissistic criminal rapist sociopath.  

Who let 700k+ people die from COVID-19 as he made no action and then said he takes no responsibility. Then tried to stage a coup on Jan 6.

How about uniting around being American, alive and well and there's no civil war. The fact that you lot can come back from the brink. Why does everything have to be a confrontational absolute with you lot. Only a Sith deals in absolutes.

What does that look like? And how does unity respond to bigotry and hatred? 

Seriously. Unite over what? A murderer. Bigot. Idiot. Child rapist. Racist. Naraccisist. Sociopath. I'm supposed to unite over him? How?

What does that even mean? How do people unite over those things?

How does a trans person who is being denied gender affirming care unite with the people passing anti-trans legislation across the country?

How does a woman who’s forced to carry the child of their rapist or suffering from an ectopic pregnancy unite with the people who support strict abortion bans?

How do people who care about the environment and take climate change seriously unite with the people that want to roll back environmental regulations and repeal clean energy investments?

How does a parent who lost their child in a school shooting unite with the people who refuse to pass gun safety legislation?

How does someone who immigrated from another country unite with the people who treat them like they don’t belong and label them as “rapists, thieves & drug traffickers”?

How does a black person unite with the people who refuse to acknowledge that they are disproportionately targeted by the police?

How does a person who only has access to healthcare due to the Affordable Care Act unite with the people who tried and still want to repeal it?

How do people who had loved ones die from Covid unite with the people who didn’t take the pandemic seriously?

I could go on.

The reason there is no unity is because in our two-party system, one of the parties wants to protect the rights of everybody (unity) and the other only wants to protect the rights of the people they see as worthy (division).

Not to mention the shooter was a pasty white Republican incel. Republican supporters have been purposely lying about that point in an attempt to demonize Trump's political opponents. These Trumpists have no integrity. On top of that, they support Trump, a man proven to be corrupt as a politician, a man addicted too lying, a felon, and a sex offender provided children to rape by Epstein.
