This is confusing especially in juxtaposition to the peaceful protesting on behalf of immigrants in the US this week

No chance that more than a fourth of them realize it’s from the Cold War and originally mean nations that were neither in the sphere of Soviet or American interest. They just think it means poor country with brown people

I’m torn on this, I agree with your point and think it’s important to not do what the fascists want, provide an excuse to escalate violence further, but also they have been escalating all on their own and folks attending should be prepared for that escalation. Everyone has got to make their own decisions, I’ll be there with bells on but shit could get really dicey so I cant blame anyone that wants to keep their kids at home.

I get the feeling that Saturday is gonna be fucking wild

“How’s it going?”

“It’s going”

They could always downsize their lives to be less exploitative and still live a life of leisure if they are that afraid for their safety, or better yet use their wealth to influence policies beneficial to the large majority of humans but they wont do either of those.

They just want to keep living the exact same way without consequences.

Its so fucking crazy that it actually broke Robert Evans, who is primarily famous for learning, writing about, and presenting the most fucked up parts of history.

Really hope y’all are able to right that specific ship, we’re gonna need help but I also just wouldn’t wish this on anyone

When you say they, do you mean Americans paying attention, Trump voters and supporters, or the assholes making these decisions?

The first group are painfully aware of how fucked we are, the second MIGHT when they lose their home/job or have a loved one hauled away to a concentration camp but even then they might never because pro American propaganda has burrowed itself so deeply into their minds they truly believe the exceptionalism horseshit, the third either knows and is fine with it because they are just trying to consolidate power or is one of the ignorant true believers like the second group.

I fucking hate my country

Denise Gough deserves a lot of praise for the role, the physical acting she did was so good she looked like a different human. Kyle Soller should never shave his beard again

Here’s the deal, I think most have figured out that it’s going to take something massive to have any impact, either a full on general strike or coordinated direct action. Things are going to have to be dire, and yes I agree they are already, but the average American has been at worst inconvenienced. The tragedies that just occurred related to extreme weather may get the ball moving for some and the worse things get the likelier action becomes. I hate that I’m saying this but I hope things get that bad soon or I fear it may be too late. But protests are not going to do jack shit, the admin wants an excuse to declare martial law

It’s not wrong but I feel bad for Lee being associated with her

I sizable chunk of the populace seems to harbor similar delusions

If it’s any sort of foul play things may get even spicier on the world stage than they already are with a quickness

I straight don’t buy that these results accurately reflect the opinion of non boomer voters. If this is accurate then the country and the species are done for, we cannot continue on the path we’re currently on without radical change to the status quo whether thats what people want or not. This is make or break for the future and it looks like we’re all currently content to let it break even if it means the end.

This actually is still helpful for us white dudes, if you meet another white guy that gets pissy about exclusive spaces you know that person isn’t worth talking to anymore!
