Please give me working instructions for fixing this shit. Been protesting and voting for 20 years and shit only gets worse.

A protest in France looks very different than a protest in the states.. all I'm saying.

Our police also are a lot different... ours is just an Abrams short of the miltary.

You understand the guy driving the Abrams is also your neighbour right?

My neighbors are mostly MAGAts. So i dont think they'll be on my side.

The police in the US largely side with fascists. They in large part become police officers just to have power over people. No, not all police are like that, but there are always a few in every department, and "a few bad apples spoil the bunch" as they say. Police officers who try to stand up to these people get punished for it. The rot goes deep.
