this is, definitionally, an emergency of the highest order. you'd be hard pressed to see anyone in authority acting like it.

this, definitionally, cannot stand. this, definitionally, cannot happen. that it is, unimpeded, is incontrovertible evidence that our system is broken beyond repair

the system is operating as intended by the founders

they used "the democracy" as a slur to refer to the common people

when you start looking into what people such as george washington were really like, you come to understand they were high-functioning lunatics, definitely nobody you'd want to meet

I mean, last I saw there were over 50 House Democrats calling for Trump to be removed, either via 25A or impeachment. The count might be higher by now.

And supposedly, they've been working the phones to try to get Republicans, who actually control Congress, to return to DC, reconvene, & do this.

i really can't see a way to do anything about this now without someone literally putting their life on the line
whether someone will is pure luck of the draw, it's impossible to expect it

why compare the willful cruelty and sadism of pedophiles to the very children they most suffer murder and maim? it is worse than a matter of embarrassment, it is a matter of complicity. your empathy shant be coopted to draw more justifiable excuses for them. the west is the engine of Shia genocide

The adults have organised a betting pool and are seeing who the toddler will shoot so that they can make a lot of money
