    You’ve already seen a US senator roughed up on public news cameras and raids against a former government official (granted, one that’s an incredible asshole) just because said official didn’t like Donald.

    Until all of those Big Macs catch up to Donald, we’re stuck with the chaos. Even if we elect Dems next year, none of them care enough about working people to make substantial change, except maybe Mamdani, and they’ll find a way to blunt his power too if he’s elected.

    “It could be you” is incorrect, it WILL be eventually. Even if you are in another country, some inhuman despot wannabe is taking notes.

    White privilege is not having to realize that rights are being infringed at all. The abuses of the government are justifiable for certain groups, but a terrible tragedy for me!

    Rights are shared. Someone else loses rights, you lose rights…

    …someone else gains rights, you gain rights.
