Just a typical libertarian up in arms about some message board fodder and unconcerned about deployment of the U.S. Military in American cities. lol

How long do you think it will take for concern to lead to real action beyond polite protest and snarky signage?

Considering that the majority of Americans support it or are indifferent (which at this point is support), what would that look like? What would you propose? If a million people marched on Washington demanding change and the military mowed them all down, well over 100M other Americans would laugh gleefully and thank their dear leader. The election was the turning point, the majority chose this, there is no going back.

yeah, whenever i feel a glimmer of hope i remind myself...

the cruelty, the stupidity, the destruction, the grift, the tackiness, the sheer disgusting grossness of it all, everything...

this is what the majority of my fellow citizens want. they voted for this with a clear, written plan right in front of them.

so...fuck it. this is America. we are exactly who history and the world always thought we were.

I refuse to believe it’s an actual majority that wants this absolute horse shit. 

Wants it.  Is just fine with it.  Will go along with it because hey, finally those dirty mexicans are getting what's coming to them.  It's a stewpot of motivations.  But they're all shitty.

Accept that the majority of Americans are pieces of shit.  It's an unpleasant fact, but it's a fact nonetheless.

I don’t think it’s a majority that want it, but combine the ones that do want it with those that shrug their shoulders or don’t pay attention and walla 

This. I have a co-worker that voted for lower prices. We don’t have lower prices. Shoulder shrug and “he’s better than Harris” is his response. He’s upper middle white guy in Cypress in a $1M home. None of this affects him at all, so why would he give a shit outside of being a decent human? The market stays rolling - all is good in his backyard.

I accept it as reality and just root for climate change.

Sounds more like he voted against a black woman.

He needs a swift kick to the nuts. I'm in Cypress and have a well worn in pair of Copa Mundials (irony is not lost here) to get the job done.

If your in the Towne Lake / Bridgeland areas, you’re terribly outnumbered. MAGAs all over that area. He’s one of many. It’s not as bad as my neighborhood where Gov wheels did his door knocking bullshit, but it’s close.

And nary a thought about J6 or the subsequent congressional hearings?

It appears most people just drift through life assuming that our system of government is a given and nothing will upend it.

Nope.

My BIL works in construction out at different plants around the country. Most of the people he interacts with have no clue what’s going on beyond a headline here and there. They get up, go to work, bullshit about conspiracies and whatever else catches their attention and go home. The avg American doesn’t have time or care enough or have the intelligence to actually understand jack shit on a national / global scale.

There were guys that hated Biden working on the TSMC project FUNDED BY the CHIPS act.

I really, really wish he had come to Houston and knocked on my door
