    You wish it was clean up time. There’s still theoretically three more years, and that’s assuming there’s not an attempt at a third term.

        Yeah, but, using our guns??? What an unspeakable idea! I mean honestly. Who’s ever heard of a shooting happening in the USA???

            Fascists were super happy when they fomented riots and tried to assassinate the other guy, but they were super disappointed when they lost and started getting their people and propaganda removed from government.

              In today’s news: little fascists not understanding where they even currently are.

            Sh.itjust.works has been an open instance for a long time, which has lead to some moderation problems in the past. Source: it used to be my home instance.

          This person gets it.

          We need to wait until it is not an actual crime. Rebellion is illegal, until it isn’t.

          I keep imagining a tipping point where a large percentage of the population wakes up one day and smacks their forehead while saying “OMG, the corruption won’t stop because the people that would vote to stop the corruption are all corrupt” … then they start assembling guillotines.

            Hot take and so easy to type out with nothing at stake for you, but I’ll reply anyway.

            With stakes like these, being stupid and trying to do something you know you’ll fail at helps nobody, and actually hurts whatever cause you would have eventually joined. When the things I am good at are needed to topple a tyrant, I’ll answer the call. I can’t help if I’m dead or locked up. I’m not a person that can get a movement off the ground and inspire enough people to join and act in a coordinated fashion that it actually succeeds. Very, very few people are capable of that. That’s why we are where we are right now.
