She looks like a model from a late 80s Virginia Slims ad. For you younger folks that was a cigarette brand.

Look, I’ve been watching the decline of this country for far longer than the Trump years. I know where we are and where we’re headed. I know that in the past when this very same cycle of tyranny rises up the solution is destruction and rebuilding. You can’t reason with cancer.

Too late. The legitimacy of voting is dead. The only way we return to our version of democracy is to burn it all to the ground. These fascists aren’t going away by rules and laws that already aren’t following.

Sticking to guns is part of the problem.

Ooh you’re one of those types. Gotcha. Enjoy the fall of America from your high horse, buddy!

So you’re saying that the Republicans planned for this, set in motion the plan and executed the plan, but the Democrats let it happen so it’s on them. Why, I think that’s a page right out of the narcissist handbook.

How’s that working out for you? Bringing meaningful change? Hmm?

Yeah! The Democrats are the real villains here!! Not the actual fascists running the show, doing the evil, pulling the triggers, deporting the innocent, ignoring the laws… Fuck off with this hindsight blame game shit. Fascism is here and the real blame lies on the American people.

Fuck you.

No one wants to give up their comforts. We’re all just sitting here letting this happen. No one wants to get violent or have a general strike or stop paying taxes or camp out in front of the white house or stop buying shit… We’re afraid of losing things that are going to be taken away in the future anyway.
