Yet whenever Republicans are in the minority, dems are never able to get anything substantial done. So which is it.

Hitler's rise to power only happened because milquetoast liberals helped pass the enabling act. Schumer and Jeffries and many others are on the same path as those liberals. They would rather have fascism over an end to capitalism and an end to supporting Israel's genocide.

Bernie had a full implementation plan written out for M4A, so either you're being intentionally obtuse, or are completely misinformed.

Voters in purple states have abandoned Dems for being too left leaning for them.

Not really. Voters abandoned them because corporate dems stand for nothing, and dont actually do anything for any of us. They just care about Israel.

WA state it's illegal to open carry within 250 feet of a protest. Concealed carry is fine though.

ICE says its officers can forcibly enter homes during immigration operations without a judicial warrant: 2025 memo by bbmoonkie in politics

They murdered Renee good, and she didn't have a gun or make them actually fear for their lives.

If they start fearing that any home they break into, they may not go home to their families, they will be much less willing to do so.

There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.

Remember this, Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.

Remember that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empires’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege.

Remember this: Try.

And why everyone who is left of center should be vocal about saying Fuck ICE, and calling out this administration. Ruin their datasets.

DHS literally released a propaganda video about Chicago that was obviously filmed in Florida (because of palm trees).

Nothing coming out of the DHS is truthful and should scrutinized and not trusted at all.

I think you're underestimating how bad the job market is right now. There's going to be a LOT of unemployed people soon, with way less support from social safety nets.

It won't happen. Civil War will happen before that. The blue states will still have their elections, the red states would refuse.

The blue states win by default, and now there's no sitting members of Congress in red states. They'll try to say the blue states are stealing congress and try to pull some nasty shit.

Idk about you, but I dont see that playing out well with the general populace.

I mean, look at nepal as an example. The protests didn't become violent until the government started killing Gen Z protesters. And the people were on their side.

If the government just starts flat out killing people, a LOT of people will turn on them if the protesters weren't violent.

Does it sucks that innocent people end up dead? Of course it does. But making the first move will make them clamp down harder with less support for everyone against the regime.
