Our country is being run by traitors and con men. We need Nuremberg style trials after they are out of power.

Edit: This is my first comment to blow up this hard. Thanks all for the awards!

Will have to bring them to justice first.

Americas too complacent to revolt.

Soooo revolt and have all of our small businesses looted? It's not that easy. The police and right wing have agent provoceteurs on stand by so they can justify mass slaughter. Occupy Wall street, George Floyd produced protest. Martin Luther King and Malcolm X were assassinated. Chaos hurts regular people more than those in?power. The constitution provides remedies, but we have to use them. Maybe it's too late and civil war is coming. I hope not. France style protests are not possible here. Our military/prison industrial complex will not allow it. Mass slaughter will occur. Vote these fuckers out. Then push our elected officials to take action. It's that or all out war/rebellion, which won't be pretty to say the least.

You just proved it, change is too hard, too risky, and too difficult for the average American. Taught your whole life to respect authority and be complacent because you’re the greatest nation on Earth.

The growth of human dignity has always been written in blood.

If the results of the election in November are clear but Trump says it was false what are you going to do?

What do you suggest? We aren't France. Our police shoot people in the head. We HAVE protests. I speak out. I make signs.I march. I argue publicly. I vote. Do you want riots? That helps the Fascists. I can arm up, but the government can always out gun me. I've advocated for more resistance and got banned from Reddit for it. Notice how young my account is. Look, when the rebellion kicks off I'll be active. I'm waiting for my elected representatives to take action. What would you have me do? Smash my local coffee shop's windows and steal their coffee? Blrn down a Best Buy? Pick fights in the street with every MAGA pick up driver I see? Tell me. What is the course of action? We are up against billionaires and Trillionaires. Seriously, what are YOU doing?
