Stuttgart, January 16, 2026. By S.G. Kazolias.

I am often criticised because I refused to vote Democrat against Trump in 2016, 2022 and 2024. No, I would never vote for the narcissistic, sociopath currently in office. I have to admit though, that the downward spiral is going much faster than I had anticipated. But my conscience told me that Democrat warmongers are no better for the world’s people than the Republicans. I also thought, naively, that Trump’s base could slow down his imperial appetite. On the latter, I was wrong. I maintain I am right about the Democrats.¹

For me, the question is much like it was in World War Two. What was so democratic about the Allies for the people living in British, French, Belgian and Dutch colonies?² Would it have changed their sort if the Axis had won? Critical thinking Americans tell us not to lose hope, that “Americans are good people.” There are too many supporters of fascism and wars of aggression in the country for me to say, “Americans are good people.” I am sorry but Americans are not good people. Please prove me wrong.
