Washington DC is sliding further into fascism all because a kid named "Big Balls", who was put in a leadership position of dismantling the federal government, got beat up by a bunch of 15 year olds. this is truly the dumbest timeline.
Allegedly by a bunch of 15 year olds. It was probably 2 seven year olds in a trench coat.
Two seven year olds and a one year old. The one year old did the car jack; the seven year olds were lookouts.
further? newsflash, it's already there as is the rest of the country. how can you slide further into something when you're already up to your chin in fascist shit?
This is the EXACT problem with Americans. It's always "it's happening" or "soon" or "we're heading there" when the boat is already underwater.
What more is it going to take for US Citizens to finally accept that they're a fascist nation? what more does the Nazi in charge have to do for Americans to start rioting and resisting?
Most people won't realize it until masked men put them in an unmarked van.
Judging by my own little corner of the country, the normal operating state of conservative white americans is to be paranoid and complain about how the world is conspiring against them. Nothing ever happens of course, but they don't realize that because there is ALWAYS something they could complain about.

Of course we're already deep into the well of fascism. My comment wasn't meant to trivialize that - I thought it was obvious. It was only meant to highlight that things continue to get even worse.
So fucking sick of non-Americans thinking they know everything about Americans. Go start widespread violence in your own country. Pompous.
You are seriously wasting your breath. These people have no clue, and no hair.
Probably hired by El TACO to do the job so he would have an EXCUSE to go all martial law.
