Which makes me wonder, what is the breaking point for 78% of Americans, before they start burning it down, and building guillotines in front of ever federal building?
Let's get them all off the couch and to the voting booth first, and then we'll worry about Revolution later after that.

It makes me laugh when people say 70% of people didn't vote for him, what if they all marched into Washington... Like we can't even get a lot of them to march into a voting booth
It would help if they were given a decent reason to go vote, yes?
Attemptimg to avoid fascism was enough of a reason for me to vote.
Was avoiding it ever really an option?
The rights were being rolled back while Biden sat and watched...
Do you think Cheney, a known fascist was voting against fascism?
Cool. In 23 months we can aim for that.
In the meantime, are we going to work to get anyone worth voting for?
And, in the meantime.... what are we going to do about today's situation, not the voting one in over a year and a half away?
Speak out, push back, network, protest, hold them accountable. Democracy.
You don't go full-Luigi until you've tried everything else.

We've tried the soap box, the ballot box, and the jury box.
There's only one box left.
