      Serious question:
      If there is a next election, and it is fair, and the paedo oompaloopa loses, and the obese thing leaves without causing another insurrection then do you think all this just end?

        The Democrats will tell everyone to “move on” and “heal” without holding any traitors accountable. So in the following midterm and presidential elections yet another GOP Nazi can take control.

      • Democracy doesn’t last forever
        It’a a flower that will wither

        It requires eternal vigilance

        Democracy is not a state of existence, it’s a flame we have to constantly watch over and keep alive, and teach our decendents the knowledge and skills, and guide their spirit, to be able to carry on this flame.

        I, as one person, a non-white person, can’t do much to influence politics, I can only hope that the rebellious nature of the American spirit continues… otherwise this is just PRC all over again with all the corruption.

          Sadly the rebellious nature of the American spirit also includes the Confederacy and its legacy which still looms large over the country like a blighted shadow. The mess we’re in is still very much a part of that. That side of the culture here needs to be trimmed off like a surgeon removing the gangrenous flesh before it spreads and kills the whole being. How we’re going to do that when we have 24 hour regressive propaganda and psyops preying on the weak-minded among us is a challenge though.
