Correct. I’m criticizing ordinary people who claim to be patriots and public servants for putting their own interests first while the foundations of their democracy are under attack. Every authoritarian takeover has been made possible by bystanders. Also, “Something you wouldn’t do either” is a very weird presumption to make given that you don’t know anything about me or what I’d do.

Now here’s where you double down, get dismissive, call me a keyboard warrior, whatever. Pick your tired line.

Edit: yeah, your whole thing is very strange. Going to end this here. Defending cowards while shouting NO U isn’t the rhetorical win you think it is

Yeah, be nice to Mickey Rourke

I haven’t received any criticism- just told to shut up. Happy to take it if anyone wants to address my point.

“Tea Party-style” would mean “astroturfed by outrageously wealthy industrialists”

Americans if you don’t live in the US: if you don’t like it, go back to your country! How dare you come here and criticize us while enjoying the lifestyle America affords you!

Americans if you don’t live in the US: If you don’t live here, shut up- you have no right to criticize because you have nothing at stake! How dare you sit there on your high horse and claim to know better?

I’m starting to think Americans just can’t handle criticism, regardless of where it’s coming from.

That’s not how this works.

Not my country, friend

I mean, it doesn’t help that literally everyone is cooperating. Not a single person has refused to leave their post, locked themselves in, thrown a punch, fought back, gotten arrested. Every federal worker “fired” has rolled over and taken it.

100% had a fucking aneurysm over a private email server

No they didn’t. They pretended to.

I would do just about anything, really.

Weird that I only ever hear about “Jerusalem crosses” from people trying not to look like neo-Nazis. Huh. Guess it’s like the apparently very well-known “Roman salute.”
