Democracy has been systematically under attack for nearly 200 years. Rome didn’t fall in a day.

      Make America (1930’s) Germany Again! ICE = Gestapo 2.0! Beer Hall 2 = January 6th!

      Democracy has always been a lie. America is a land of ideals built on hypocrisy. If you don’t know that you were probably only educated by its public schools. 

      It wouldn’t be reddit if i didn’t get downvoted for facts. Stay asleep, it suits you.

      The ballot is our only weapon against the ruling class and we throw it away. It’s the tragedy of the commons.

      Lol I love how they think the first time shit went off the rails was the civil war. What a ridiculous statement. The 3/5ths compromise was way before this, so was Dread Scott, and the trail of tears.

    5. Pretty sure we screwed up the concept of democracy from the beginning by enslaving Black people, unfortunately.

      I think it went off the rails when a handful of human trafficking, tax dodging, lawyers decided they were going to steal already stolen land.

      Yes. Failing to properly punish the confederacy was a huge mistake. If we fail to properly punish MAGA, that will be another mistake of equal magnitude.

      I’ve been told by my friends that I’m too harsh for saying we should have gone salt the earth with the south. Confederate culture itself should have been outlawed

      Not executing the confederate traitors and instead building statues and naming streets after them fucked up this country before it barely began

    10. Letting Confederates walk free, opening the country up to Nazis, celebrating traitors & hatemongers with statues & holidays in their honor, propping up the worst humanity has to offer, and now folks are really talking about showing grace to MAGATs & bloodthirsty Zionists for the sake of “unity.”

      Folks never learn ……….
