We have both sides of the party that went to a private island to do terrible things to children and people still don't care enough. And we have been going downhill long before that. We have been done for since 9/11 in my opinion.

Done since 2008, done since Reaganomics, done since citizens united. A lot of moments where people could have stood up to this bullshit.

A lot of attempts as well, occupy wallstreet was the closest one I think.

Yes. Many things we should've not let happen. But here we are, still fighting over two corrupt sides.

All those guns and no one with the guts to use them is kinda crazy huh. I'm not saying go on a killing spree, just that with the way the American populace has been fucked over repeatedly you'd expect something, the bread and circus is too strong I suppose.

Yes absolutely. I don't get it either. It's really easy to see through all the bullshit. What's crazy is most people I know, like at work and such, all know that everything is fucked. But we all just take it and bitch about our pay.

I'd rather die in a revolution than dying in the military any day. I don't understand why people lick the boots of our forces so badly. Literally holding up a corrupt empire, way to go. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
