    US gained the rights to legally murder its own citizens without due process under Obama.

    Also loads of giving corporations and capital rights, and rolling back protective anti-investment gambling under Democrat administrations, which ate up the rights of non-capital.

        Murdering our own citizens without due process is massive civil rights rollback.

          Well I don’t fucking see anyone at all of any significant power even remotely considering OTHER means for progress, so I stand by what I said. We were making progress, now we’re not.

          This is the same arguing-with-bricks situation I felt when I was saying if our only choices are Trump or establishment democrats we need to pick democrats because those are our only fucking choices unless enough people get on-board with a new strategy, which isn’t happening, hasn’t happened, won’t happen.

          “Well Mister or Miss Democrat president isn’t great so I can’t vote” is why we’re here, and I’m done arguing with fucking entitled tankies and delusional internet addicts who think someone is coming.

          Nobody is fucking coming. I’ve been through this for decades. Nobody is saving us. We are not getting ideal outcomes.
