    Lots of people are willing to foment civil war part 2 but very few are willing to fight in it.

    It’s kinda like how most Americans think that it would be better for the country if more people worked in factories, but none of those same people polled want to work in the factories themselves.

        Yeah, I dunno. I never worked in one myself and I don’t want to. But I also wouldn’t be going around talking about what a great thing it would be if everyone worked in factories so 🤷.

      You either fight for your democracy or your lose it. That’s the situation you’re in, whether you like it or not.

      How do these people make it into adulthood

      Saying crap like this is defeatist and putting down people willing to fight and who call for others to do the same is helping the fascists. Which side are you on? It’s your choice.
