You put the equivalent of mobsters in the White House and suddenly these checks don't matter. As a country we fucked around and found out.

Seriously I tried warning people but they were certain that our existing laws would hold up. It's heartbreaking.

So it's like your average American doesn't believe this is even a possibility regardless as to what they have said.

There are a lot of reasons for this. Many of us did see it coming. However, we have all still been culturally brainwashed to think that our government has too many checks for things to get this far out of hand.

It is a lot more difficult to be evicted in most states (even if you don't pay your rent) than it is to be picked up by ICE.

I get it. I've been too poor to even make it to work at least a few times. (Could not pay for the gas or a ride)

The point is right now we need numbers to protect what very very little autonomy we still have. If it would absolutely kill you to participate then don't but we don't need this shit right now.

Don't let the pursuit of perfection keep us from uniting. Now is the time for common ground.

Father Ted references are always welcome.

Women are the ones who are going to get it done. We have the most to lose.

You don't have to be vegan to make a tofu scramble.

I used to work for Medicaid. This is absolutely ghastly and nothing short of domestic terrorism.

We should do this with the sole intention of throwing a wrench into the process and making the Dems pay attention. With the distinct understanding that we should not allow it to divide the progressive vote under any circumstances.

This is done all the time. Think the Tea Party or the Green Party etc. They're just extensions of existing parties meant to bring attention to certain topics.

The Right never hesitates to use this kind of tactic and we need to grow a spine and do it as well.

How is any of this "chosen" when everything is gerrymandered and rigged?

Our biggest fault was being the frog who stayed in the water while it was heating up. We have just slowly been giving up freedoms with a little fuss but not enough to matter. We need to learn to say no firmly and with conviction.

This is the time for Americans to really start acting like old fashioned stereotypical Americans.

No kings. We the people. My freedoms. The constitution. Etc.

The moment we roll over they will steam roll us all.
