Y'all need to start exercising that 2nd amendment right against a tyrannical government.

You know, like Ice.

I hate violence but like I said 9 years ago and again 8 years ago and again 7 years ago and again 6 years ago and again 5 years ago and again all of last year, If the current administration isn't playing by the rules (checks and balances, going through senate for permission, doing things democratically, you know, the way it's SUPPOSED TO BE), then he's not a president, he's a king. And I'm sorry, but you're well past the point where simply tolerating it and barely fighting back isn't gonna keep your country from collapsing in on itself.

America is currently killing its own citizens, punishing those who resist or oppose by military or financial force, treating immigrants like they aren't human, using thier power to try to turn news into propaganda, and doing everything in its power to alienate the entire fucking world. they're making enemies of long-time allies (I'm in Canada and holy shit we've always been critical of the US but we've always been allies, which just isn't the case anymore), threatening outright aggression against allies in the form of what's going on in Greenland, not to mention a literal invasion of Venezuela (See how quickly people forgot about that?).

And the worst part is that all of this hurts the US. Like, it's not even up for debate. It hurts the economy, it hurts the people, it hurts the nation's international standing, it hurts everyone on every level but it adheres to 'traditional' ideas of 'strength' so the dipshits who can't see that unity is our actual cultural strength think this makes them look good and strong and powerful. It doesn't.

And sadly the US has the largest military in the world by a wide margin, so the only way short of World War III that we'll stop this knuckle-dragging power play is if the US fixes its shit itself. Either that means Impeaching trump, the military refusing unlawful orders, or an all-out civil war.

The only way America fixes this is if America fixes itself before it implodes upon itself. I'd prefer if the government resisted and did their goddamn jobs by checking and balancing this narcissistic, egotistical, immature madman, but you know the country is fundamentally fucked up at its core when this sort of lunacy persists without it being properly resisted. The fact that the current administration can say 'do this horribly nazi shit' and the entire governmental body isn't like 'uh, no, fuck that, we respect the constitution' shows just how deeply fucked the country is.

Fix your shit.

I repeat, y'all can't pretend that the US government/Conservatives/Republicans/The Trump loyalists aren't the villains. Literally EVERYONE in the world can see exactly where this is headed, because we have eyes and ears and even a surface level education on history and the cognitive function to have pattern recognition. You haven't had plausible deniablity for a long time now (we warned you, but you were so eager to be shitty you didn't care or were too stupid to understand), but you're almost past redemption now.

Fix. your. Shit.
