The intimidation is justification.

That's such an unconstitutional thing to say!
Bucket empties of water despite large holes in the bottom.
Yes, what to do about it?
The Dem "leadership" thinks they're saving their own skin, not realizing their weakness and cowardice will make them primary targets. I suppose it'd be more true to say 'it will be up to us', when the time comes.
It's up to us.

You're absolutely right, although the cycle goes back a lot further than 50 years. The two parties are playing good cop / bad cop against the middle, directed by their donors with the concerns of the people driving only the nature of the lies they tell. The right wing implements authority the left placates the masses with flaccid opposition. Don't let your left parties slip to the "middle", it's just another word for right.
American here....I think it's actually more the opposite. Everyone is being told to vote for the lessor evil and no one is getting what they want. That's what caused all this to begin with imo... The Magas torched their party trying to get something different to happen politically (not to excuse them or anyone). This is all on the 2 party system, if we make it out of this I think ending that system is one major change that will need to take place to avoid repeating the cycle. Basically, we lost our Republic a long time ago when Congress stopped representing us and became owned by billionaires.
We design and build the wood chippers too, so I don't see why we shouldn't.
They were only following orders
You mean faux?
