    Dear Americans, your country has been bought by the oligarchs and you are all slaves now - do something while you still can or get used to it.

      I don’t think shit is going to happen. It’s just going to become cyberpunk without any cool technology. That stuff will also spread globally so buckle up buddy.

      Dear rayyy, the cool thing is that most of the oligarchs live in blue states that have very strict and embedded culture of gun control, meanwhile the oligarchs themselves can afford to purchase and hire heavily armed security and large collections of personal firearms.

      It’s ironic that the Left voted to remove their own teeth and now can’t do shit other than protest and waggle fingers angrily now, and resort to appealing to others with the equivalent of shitty fake Facebook hopes and prayers the militarized police that protect the status quo don’t kill them during protests. It’s already over.

        None of this is accurate at all.

        Work harder at your fake news and bullshit.

        For those who may not know, we have gun regulations because the black panthers started carrying and some people (I’ll let you guess who) didn’t like it that black folks were carrying weapons.

          You have no rebuke other than a non-sequitur. Go fuck yourself if you can’t tell me why I’m wrong and help me change my mind.

            I’ll give it a shot. The location of the property owned by the 1% is irrelevant. Left/right politics are a construct to keep the masses angry at each other, and keep the focus off of the super-rich and corrupt politicians, who are the real problem.

            It doesn’t matter which civilians have guns, because violence isn’t going to fix this.

            Voting can fix this, both voting with your dollars (never order from Amazon, for example) and with your vote. For example, if we keep the republicans out of federal government, they cannot continue to fuck over 99% of the population for personal gain. Then perhaps at some point down the line, the republican party will either reform to actually represent fiscal conservativism, or die out and be relaced by something that actually represents it’s voters instead of gaslighting them.

            Just to be absolutely clear, I am not catagorically against the republican party. The corruption is evident on both sides. But the republican party has been making horrendous policies since regan was in office, the party cannot be trusted with running this country right now.

            Major reforms are needed, and the only party that will enact them (flawed as they may be) are the democrats. But to do that they need control of all three branches of the federal government at once to do so.

          No, you have it wrong. You can’t eat the rich if they’re protected by credible threats of violence. Cops are working class, and do not deserve violence, they just need better training and education.

        What good did your guns do against the oligarchs who live in red states? I’m sure that, using your guns, you brought those oligarchs all the heel and have them paying their fair share of tax/not interfering in your government right?

        Right?

        Sorry, but the reason I don’t use violence is because I don’t believe in violence. Not because of gun laws, which I still support. And if we come to civil war, I won’t be here to see it through because I don’t believe this nation can be saved, not because I’m not willing to fight for something I believe in.

    Oh great, thier enemies are possessed by demons. That’s just wonderful. Really great to have supreme court justices and party leaders fly the flag for this.

    What. The. Fuck.

    Well, at least the facade of a country founded on slavery and genocide being anything approaching democratic can finally be dropped.

      The idea that a country can only ever be its origin is as nonsensical as believing a state deserves to exist at all

    Partisan hack.

    Sad part is liberal justices are going to call him out because that would open them to being called partisan hacks.

      I assume you meant to say “are not going”? But I don’t even think that’s their job. There needs to be a neutral 3rd party, whether it’s an appointed watchdog or Congress setting standards with actual teeth.
