    Staying through his first term as a martyr made sense, but killing yourself for a country that is hell bent on self destruction ain’t worth it.

      Literally everyone is waiting on a revolution to save them while also saying “it’s not my job to stand up and fight for these idiots.”

        A revolution in such a large and diverse country is a difficult thing. They were hard enough to accomplish with smaller groups in the past. There must be unanimity with such actions or they will fail. So how do you unite so many people to move the same direction? The closest we’ve had in a long while is the UHC CEO shooting, and that’s mellowed into memes more than anything. The bread and circus has been optimized for effectiveness.
