the fact that the federal government is removing sections from the Constitution on its official website should be the final nail in the coffin for anyone holding on to optimism or those remaining skeptical.
if you are in your 30s ask yourself if Bush would have thought about doing anything to even suggest altering or changing the constitution. the constitution of this country has long since been championed by conservatives to be “law of the land” as essentially infallible. they used to foam at the mouth if anyone attempted to revise a single part of it lest the entire document become obsolete.
it’s done, you guys. Project 2025 has won and we are not a constitutional republic anymore. dictatorship is being OPENLY attempted and if you still think at this point fascism is not here you are delusional.
wake up and get ready for whatever is coming after.
Congrats! After however many years I’ve been on the internet, you’re the first to tell me to die!
Go fuck yourself.
while i meant what i said in a larger sense it wasn’t to you directly unless the statement you made was specific to you. i was saying as a larger community, a collective as a people. i’m saying: go out and fight and be prepared to die. it is unfortunate and terrifying and sad, but it is ultimately the kind of person we need to change this path.
Sorry, I misread your comment then. I agree that we need a lot of people to band together and fight back, and we’ve seen that happening. But we can’t ask people to go out and die for the cause. They need to make that decision themselves, otherwise it won’t happen.
A battle fought with blood first needs to be fought with words. Change peoples’ hearts, and they’ll bleed for you.
no need to apologize, this is a heated topic and i am responding a bit flippantly due to the passion and anger i feel, so i understand.
you’re right, of course. however, what i would suggest then is to create a culture of rebellion and honor in fighting tyranny. there are countries that have had this mentality built into their culture, like Japan, so it’s entirely possible to do over time. i guess i haven’t yet figured out how to speak in a way that does that. i am ultimately ineffective at what i want to achieve culturally because i don’t know what i’m doing lol. i’m just flailing and hoping others get me.
