You forgot your 2nd amendment, which gives y'all the right to arm yourselves in case the government is working against the people. Which with the way things have changed since it was written, basically allows you to bring knives to a gun fight. Your government has tanks and fighter jets and aircraft carriers, but sure - pencildick Jim Bob's collection of 30 glocks will be really useful against even one drone.
Yeah, your Republicans have been systematically shitting on your country with almost no reaction from your Democrats and some people sit there, covered in shit up to their eyes, breathing through a straw, and still somehow find it in them to say "vote Republican, this shit doesn't even smell" or "vote Democrat otherwise they'll take the biggest dump so far". I mean, come on. Find another option already.
Oh I didn't forget about it. It's just broken the other way right now.
And I agree that we need another option. Unfortunately the choices seem to be a party that wants corporations to just take the mask off and actually run the country and an eco party that's been largely co-opted by the Russians.
Progressives are still working inside the DNC but they keep getting stepped on by the donor class because the liberals routinely fall for tech billionaires who profess progressive ideals but only if we hand them a ton of money. So the liberals hand the money to the billionaires instead of actual progressives. Which just ends up furthering private governance.
Trump is a Russian asset.
Well yeah.
