So what are you doing as an American?
You expect the rest of the world to act for you, while you sit back and disparage people talking about a solution.
It seems that I must repeat this to non-Americans until the heat-death of the universe:
To attempt to overthrow a government by force that has, at its disposal, swathes of 5th generation multirole fighter aircraft, drones with Hellfire missiles, and an army of sycophants more than willing to gun down their brother and sister citizens is a fool's errand for suicidal rubes.
Wildcat Strikes are de wei.
It seems Americas love fascism on their shores and refuse to fight it.
You are not fighting the military, you are fighting a few thousand rich old fucks with names and addresses.
I'm not asking for shit, 'cause I know none of you can do a damn thing.
Yeah because I’m not in your country, you are, and your inaction is allowing innocent people to suffer.
Look, I'm not going to take up arms against the government. Not going to happen.
You want people to invade state houses? What's the goal here?
My Senators haven't done shit to slow the administration down and I have a feeling they will pay for it. Bennet wants to be Governor but we can primary him. Hickenlooper is just as feckless as ever and I'll try to primary him again too.
My Representative has been vocal about the administration and has been pointing affected constituents to various resources to help them. Not much else they can do in the House right now.
The goal is overthrowing fascism, or at the least crippling it into inaction. Taking out leadership achieves that.
Do not delude yourself that you’re going to win this at the polls, there will be no fair election to win. Trump has free rein to do as he pleases.
