I don't, in fact, live in America, but also the problem here is that your democracy has no future unless you do something. The time where this could be resolved without significant personal risk is long past. If you think the risk of regime retaliation is worse than the risk of living under MAGA for the next two decades, then sure, but know that those are the options you're looking at here.
I don't think you understand the likelihood of what you want resulting in our deaths. They've already killed numerous protesters. I live 1,100 Miles from DC. Hell, the closest real city is a hundred miles from me. I feel like you don't understand the size and how spread out the country is. You seem to have this idea that we can just flip the do something switch and things magically happen.
You want to believe that you're just better than us and that it can't happen in your country, when it has likely already begun.
Lol. This guy thinks I can afford McDonald's.
So you're choosing option 2. In that case better look up how to avoid being disappeared by an authoritarian regime.
No, the opposite in fact. My country is already by an authoritarian regime, and it's seriously not a fun experience.
It's not an option if you don't really have a choice.
And what are you doing about that?
