How bad do we let things get? Should we wait until the planet can't sustain life anymore? Should we wait until it's 100 degrees F in the Artic? Until wildfires blanket entire continents or the last glacier is gone? Should we wait until fascist billionaires take even more from us? Until there are Flock cameras at every mail box? Maybe we should wait until the wells run dry or the tornadoes never stop. When is it going to be enough? I'm so tired of seeing things getting worse. Every. Single. Day. I'm ready. I've been ready. How about you?
How do we coordinate? How do we look after each other? What is the signal? If we don't work together then we are just continuing our slow march to destruction to the drum of the parasitic billionaires. Please, for us, for the cats, the dogs, the birds and trees. The fish and the whales, the beatles and the centipedes. Please tell me it's worth it to you, that you're willing to get uncomfortable, that you're willing to fight. There are more of us than them, and we are rapidly running out of time to make that mean something.
Nope, I've not worked for the DoJ for years - as a contractor I've worked with various state departments over the course of my career. Speaking of which, I've gone to every No King's protest and handed out abolish ICE stickers - not sure how that makes me a collaborator.
framing it as an attack on the american people rather than the government is just again demonstrating your surface level understanding of things.
So, and I need you to pay the fuck attention to what I'm asking, why would anyone ever assume that this 'real meaning' matters when tensions between both countries have been rising over the past 70 years?
Why would I, ever, as an American assume that 'Death to America' combined with 'America deserved 9/11' doesn't mean exactly what the fuck it says?
'I'm just joking!' 'I'm just asking questions!' 'I'm just citing the original meaning!'
