    No the last line is the citizens but they seem content to sit back and watch their democracy collapse.

      There are some people doing some stuff. But definitely not at the scale nor intensity required.

      Easy to say behind a keyboard. If you live in the US and know your communities, it’s not as easy as you all make it seem.

        Oh, it’s hard? Sorry, I didn’t realize defending your democracy would be inconvenient for you. Oh well, nothing you can do then.

      People aren’t just sitting back though. The world literally just watched someone intentionally kill Charlie Kirk in a public setting, in front of thousands of people.

          Again - speculation. Kid is only a suspect at the moment, hasn’t confessed to anything, yet the court jesters pundits are going absolutely hogwild over “what ifs” and assumptions based on absolutely nothing.

        He wasn’t defending democracy. He shot him because he wasn’t fascist enough

          The shooter shot him because he was spreading hate.

          That’s speculation at best. The kid they apprehended hasn’t confessed to anything.

          Dont listen to the pundits. For anything. As someone recently suggested, pundits are just the court jesters keeping us divided.
