Is the gopnik-looking guy in the red tracksuit meant to be a Russian troll farm operative?

Half the country actively wants this. It wouldnt be a revolt, it would be a civil war. And Im not even sure the sane people would win this time.

I think most people there who are against this are just too tired to care at this point and are saving their energy for the next election. I don't know if I agree with this sentiment. On one hand there isn't much you can do to change anything but on the other hand, speaking up and protesting will set the stage for the next election. But hey idk I'm not even American but I'm in the EU and they are basically copying them, along with the G7

the next election.

...The Federal Elections Commission is in the process of being dismantled. The US is not going to have free elections again at this rate.

Jokes aside. I realy don't get why there is so litte backlash against trump. This guy is doing some insane shit and everybodys like: hmm yea that sucks. Thats the same people that allways said that other people in autocratic countries should "just" revolt and that they would have fixed everything allready. Currently you still have the right to protest, but still nothing realy happens. Sure there are a few demonstrations, but nothing that will actually change anything.

Too many are still trapped in the "it can't happen here" denial that they've been in for the last several decades. Some are waking up to the fact that many of us have been shouting that this isn't "just making it through four years" but, it's really looking to be too little too late.

We all have AC, refrigerators, and TVs. As long as that keeps up, everyone, including me, won’t choose combat.

Fixing this is going to take blood. We won’t do that while we are fed.

We must be waiting for the avengers.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

The avengers are bootlickers. They’d do nothing you want them to do

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Be the avenger you want to see in the world! The difficulty with stochastic terrorists is that mostly only kinda dumb people are up for it. I do admire Luigi, but let's be real he's a himbo. The fatal flaw here is that dumb people tend to be more conservative.

So, I guess I'm saying don't wait for the Avengers. They've all got Punisher stickers on their cars.

Are they going to tell people they are free all through this presidency?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

Yes and probably will tell people they’re the best country on earth the whole time too.
