    My wife points out that a bunch of geriatrics revolting sounds anticlimactic. OTOH, the visuals of cops beating senior citizens would be an interesting media event.

    A whole lot of them have guns and also family members that will be resentful that they have to take them in like abandoned animals when their funding dries up. Also a bunch of armed people with nothing to lose is dangerous even if they’re old and disabled.

    Agree to disagree. Bread and circuses, man. Bread and circuses. TikTok, X, Meta, Lemmy, Mastodon… people think being indignant on social media is going to cause change.

    Well yeah. All of social media, sure. Although x and meta both block leftists. I’ve been banned from both and Reddit too for “inciting violence” by being anti fascist. But liberals are far too happy to make snarky clap backs and change their profile picture than take over the federal judiciary.
