Turns out all you need is a Supreme Court majority on your side and you can wipe your ass with the Constitution.

      Honestly, an .ml agreeing is the only thing giving me pause. That suggests the CCP wants us shooting each other and their agents are stoking that rage. Interesting.

        You see one user of the original instance and you assume I’m CCP? If it were that straight forwardly obvious, wouldn’t you think they’d move to a new instance? No, I’m saying because I know my history and am actually in the thick of it in America unlike you, you troll. What rage would even be stoked?

      Me, looking up what fedposting is…lol. Ben Jordan did a great video on that or something similar. Quickly becoming my favorite YouTuber.

      You make a good point; protest, write representatives, all good things. Vote in the midterms (assuming we have them).

      All that said, it doesn’t make what I said untrue. Post 2nd amendment stuff if it’s cathartic, but think it through.

      I’m shook by how powerless I feel and guns don’t help the situation. But that feeling of helplessness is a feature of the fascism playbook.

        I am not saying go straight to mindlessly shooting people, that won’t happen and will certainly only hurt people. I am saying that if these options do fail, which they have every time they haven’t been backed up with the threat of violence, options are limited with what can be done next.
