Americans: "Best we can do is one large-ish peaceful protest a couple months ago. Ah well, we tried everything, and we're all out of ideas."
Thousands of kids died for Americans' right to bear arms and yet when the Gestapo jumps out of an unmarked van to kidnap their neighbor the most the average American can manage is to duck and film a TikTok. Absolute disgrace of a country.
"American ideals"? All bark, no bite. You'll spend billions making horny patriotic Hollywood movies about how Great and Free you are, but a couple masked bitch-ass Nazi shows up to round up the brown people and the whole neighborhood is suddenly like pwease don't huwt me mistaw officaw, wight this way, also pwease fuck my wife.
Your country disgusts me. Not so much because 30 % of y'all are actual Nazis. But because virtually everyone else is a complete coward about it.
What's your solution, tough guy?
There was a “code blue” in Oklahoma and Texas today because someone shot a cop at a detention facility. People are doing shit, the media isn’t covering it.
