Don't worry, there won't be another.
You can fuck right off. We got a lot of bullshit going on and a lot of growth to do but I'll be damned if my republic dies in my fucking life time
I'm with you. Hope we can do it without violence but it is looking grim.
Your republic? Brother it's their republic (I can't help but admire your strength)
It's our Republic and I think while what is happening now is despicable it won't push enough people. Suspending elections. ... That will rouse the nation.
It's never been "our republic".
Masked agents of the government posing as civilians are arresting people by the thousands - legal resident or not - across the country and we have not risen up. This man’s cult following literally attacked Congress as they tried to overturn an election and we did not rise up.
What makes you think suspending an election is going to tip the scales?
Mostly that at least right now there's hope for midterms to change things in Congress and then the presidential election to get Trump out. Right now we still have the trappings of a Republic. I think if elections got suspended all belief in a peaceful solution will be erased and people will react.
You have a point though, bread and circuses go a long way towards kowtowing the population. That and the risk of death at the hands of the state. I don't know where the line is that people will readily accept potentially getting shot especially if they're in white man suburbia.
I appreciate your measured tone - Looking at my previous comment it looked a little flippant/antagonistic, my bad.
Whatever, it's the internet fuckface, don't worry about it!
