Look, my ability to detect irony has physically atrophied in the Trump era, so this question is genuine: Are they trying to incite violent revolution against the billionaire class?
Because you just can't make up shit as bad as the way these fuck operate.
No one is gonna do shit. You could starve half of America and we all will still go to work and the people starving either just die or would still support Trump and die. This is not a country of civil disobedience, we just mostly all don't want to be inconvenienced in any way. There's also zero organizing, zero workers rights and zero collaboration amongst the left to do anything. I fully expect things to keep getting worse and most of us honestly just don't give a shit. America is also huge and you're not gonna get people in Hawaii to just come to DC.
The "1789 France" memes are all bullshit. The US also has the most advanced military to keep all the peasants in line and you bet your ass they won't join the peasants.
A little more than five years ago remember people were throwing public fits over putting a piece of cloth on their face, they ain't gonna rise up.
The military might not get paid on the 15th. I wouldn't be too sure of their loyalty.
Fucking Democrats!!
