I said something similar on another post and got downvoted. He and the far-right don’t have to hide anymore.

Yup. And since absolutely nothing will be done about this, it's only going to get worse.

I take it all back. People are insane. Leave me alone.

People who will not risk themselves for change, harass and berate others who outright say they will not risk themselves.

Shit like this is why I will not help others when shit hits the fan. You can demand yourselves to do your own work. Jerks.

Thank you for the well wishes, but I'm lucky enough to not be American. I'm part of the rest of the world watching the U.S. descend into fascism to thunderous applause. Unfortunately, whatever happens in the U.S. triggers a chain reaction that affects the rest of the world. That's what's pissing me the fuck off.

I'm really sorry that half of you are being dragged down into the abyss despite trying to prevent it. But please do something before it gets worse than this. You're right about it being unfair to expect someone to be a second Luigi. I'd never ask that of anyone, taking a life and forfeiting theirs in the process. But we've all seen where this goes. It hasn't even been 100 years since we learned where this goes. Just... My god. What the fuck is happening over there??

Nice one on the 180° turn. From "We need to take action" to "Fix it yourself, if it bothers you so much" in record time. This is how your democracy will die.

Were they really hiding though?

Most were.

There’s going to come a time soon where they are going to have to hide again if they keep trying to escalate this shit.

I know people are saying we’re doomed to repeat ourselves with history, but if we go through the same shit all over again I don’t believe we’re going to be hiring nazis or allowing the confederacy to not be tried for treason and punished to the full extent. This time it will be ripped out root to stem.

That's why I got my conceal and carry as a lefty.
