    That’s exactly what will happen. Waiting for violent conservatives to do the right thing is such a stupid plan.

      No one is waiting for them to do the right thing. People are waiting for their “but this affects me!” moments to eat away enough of his support to make moves feasible.

      You know what I get super tired of? The fucking fatalism that seems so popular to pop off with in the hopes of a couple little updoots to make oneself feel better about the situation. It isn’t helpful. You are allowed, I can’t stop y’all, but I am exhausted by it.

        Yeah fuck off with your exhaustion, your country is threatening to invade my country. Do something about it. Because your lack of doing anything is exhausting me.

          And so they win: making you hate me for stuff I don’t support and have been trying to prevent for my entire adult life.

          Great job everyone, me included.

            The individualism that is a consistent cultural framework around all of the US whinging about ‘don’t blame me’ is where the blame lies. Your collective commitment to eschew any collective responsibility. This is fertile soil for fascism, because apathy is all that’s needed for the takeover.

            And then the crying and screaming becomes an even bigger export.
