Good GOD how I wish that everyday Americans will not stand for it. If that was the case the 2A guys would show up fully kitted out AND the police and military would be by their side since it screws everyone over.

But that is not going to happen.

Ha, exactly, they explicitly voted for it! Fuck them, I wish maximum pain inflicted on every single asshole that voted for this.

America had a class war. And Americans lost.

Never thought I'd say it but here goes: Americans are very classy.

American friends, what are you waiting for to deploy your guillotines?

Sure we are getting fucked all over the world but it seems that you are having it way worse...

Honestly, this is probably people forgetting the size of the country.

The people who deserve the guillotine are in Washington d.c. the vast majority of the country is very, very fucking far away. California to Washington DC is 4 times the distance from London to Berlin.

4,495 kilometers away.

If we were all within a 4 hour drive of our capital, we could riot or protest as an entire country where the people in power are. But asking the entire USA to protest at once is an enormous undertaking. People are just so fucking far away from the people making the decisions and doing the harm.

We are so broke as a country living paycheck to paycheck people can't take a week off work to go to a protest and no one is organizing the travel of all these people to the capital. We should have groups organizing buses from every corner of the country to Washington and building some infrastructure for people to live and camp indefinitely causing every politician in Washington to know our opinion and demand them to work for us again.

Sorry can’t afford a guillotine, too preoccupied with trying to get enough overtime to afford basic necessities to be starting a revolution nobody else will show up for 🤷‍♀️

Know how we can directly trace the enshitification of the United States in many ways back to the Reagan administration?

Yeah, we just did that to ourselves again. But probably worse.

Realistically, we're going to spend the remainder of our lives witnessing the further enshitification of this nation.
