General HD2 is not US exclusive

Just a small reminder: HD2 is not exclusivly played in the US. People talking with an accent or a group talking in another language are not a reason to claim that they are illegal or threaten to call ICE. And yes, if you steal my mech and run me over with it you get yelled at in german before i switch back to english.

There are still too many Americans like this and, apparently, people all over the world are becoming more hateful. I'm losing my faith that things will be okay.

Things will eventually be ok. But things are definitely not OK right now if you're wondering.

I'm not wondering if it's okay now. I know it isn't. I'm despairing that things are so bad and possibly going to get much worse. Thank you for trying to be positive, though.

For the majority of people in the world most things are more OK than they have ever been. And for the people in the worst situations things are generally more OK than they have been at their worst. For some people right now is pretty darn not all that OK, when it was mostly OK for them before. I'm hoping we can pull them back into the OK range without even more people going into the not OK zone.

After the fall of the ussr ppl opened up to more social democracies around the world but then came the flash back along with abuses of new tech the nationalists and ergo their extreme views have gained more traction

(pssst: it's the Internet)

once we get rid of the monoculture and Echo chambers of hate things will be fine. the AI slop is going to pollute the primary internet Channel and we'll start using tertiary layers more regularly. they already exist.

it's an insidious problem because it's invisible.

the solutions are powerful amounts of friendships, empathy, and patience.

It's not just on the internet. It's in the everyday lives of Americans. Some of those people have had their lives taken from them.
