It's the Fascist States of America now.

Who would have guessed that America has so little backbone and no fight in them?
Honestly? Anyone who's been paying attention. The US has amazing control over their population. The people are kept weak, misinformed, and economically on the edge of being unhoused and starving with no support systems in place. Most people are too comfortable in their own homes, or too distracted struggling to survive to realize their power to organize in numbers.
Compare various European nations' reactions when their government does something they don't like. They bring the nation to its knees with protests clogging the streets. The US? Crickets.
South Korea pulled down a wanna-be dictator and held him accountable. The US? Crickets.
They talk tough, but the US has not had a strong populace in generations.
Trump sketches the start of a roadmap
Yeah we're familiar with Trump's sketches of maps
Why would anyone hire a lawyer from a firm that gives in like that? I don't want a lawyer who's a coward! I want one that will fight for me with everything they've got.
Exactly. The power lies with the people and always has. Don't rely on an ineffectual party to save you. You have to do it yourselves.
Hey man, whatever you need to tell yourself to feel good about doing nothing.
That's what I don't think people understand about these types of programs. They employ American workers to buy American crops and feed Americans. It's a win all the way down the chain.
I'm not saying they didn't have help. I'm saying you have to start it yourselves! No one is going to swoop in and save you. YOU have to do it! Only then will you start getting others to join.
If you tell yourself you're powerless, then you are. You sit there doing nothing while making excuses for it.
YOU ARE NOT POWERLESS. Together you are strong. Get up and act like it.
People in numbers have ALL the power. I know Americans have been trained for defeatism, but look at what protest, resistance, and strikes can do overseas.
The British empire was brought to its knees by normal patriots to form the country you're making excuses not to defend. Coward.
You've already got it.
The problem is that most of the anti-vaxxers were actually vaccinated as kids. It's their children who will suffer.
