THE KOSA BILL HAS MOVED OUT OF THE COMMITTEE WITH A UNANIMOUS VOTE, BUT THE FIGHT IS FAR FROM OVER. BILLS

If you dont believe israel is capable of this evilness (that they've been enforcing for OVER 50 YEARS) read it for yourself, from AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL

Dude, how can it be that every single fucking thing about US politics trends on here immediately, yet when 27 countries in the EU vote and there's a historic, alarming lurch to the right (far right parties have won the elections in Italy, Austria and France), it's not even trending? In Germany, the AFD, a right-wing populist, anti-democratic, racist party with a wing that is officially extremist (read: Nazis) and is in parts monitored by the office for the protection of the constitution, is the second strongest party (also among 17-24 year olds!). Guess I'll die.

Edit, because so many people in the tags are like "because most of tumblr is US-American":

The point of this post was never "why aren't Americans talking about this". The point was to ask why only American politics (and sometimes UK politics) ever make it to the trending page at all. It's not like only Americans can make things trend on tumblr. Eurovision is trending every year despite Americans not giving a fuck about it. The point is, why aren't the people directly affected by this election posting about it more? Sure, it would be great if more Americans would care about foreign politics the way everyone else is forced to care about US politics, but this post was never about Americans in the first place.

Edit two: tumblr is not a news source! I've seen some comments on how I should've included more info in the original post. The thing is, this was a post where I just wanted to vent my own personal grievances and I had no idea it would blow up like this (which is great, I'm glad people are talking about this topic!). If you want to read up on the election, please go to serious news sources and not tumblr.
