    No one understands that once it gets to the point where people who were born and raised American by American parents start to get arrested without legal protections … it will be too late to protest or fight against the authoritarian government.

    America is sliding closer to the edge and right now people have an ass cheek over the ledge and think that they’ll be able to save themselves if it goes any further.

    Whenever i see these “angry townhall” videos from the US recently im just stuck thinking of the “They are not hurting the right people” meme. Im still not convinced these people have understood the root of the problem, they are only mad because they were individually affected somehow.
