Too many people are too comfortable to ever get off their asses to do anything more than bitch about it online. It's a very small percentage of people that actually go to rallies and half of those people are middle class white people that have never known real hardship; the kind of people that are surprised when they get pepper sprayed while trying to break into the capitol. There won't be a civil war, but we're definitely on the brink of single party rule.

We're like a bunch of frogs sitting in water that is being slowly brought to a boil, but except for water it's fascism and half the country is okay with it because they think they are "saving the children." The other half think they can stop it. I think that both sides might be delusional.

It’s hard to do more when we're working ourselves to death just to afford basic necessities. That tipping point gets closer and closer though.

And how many of frogs are there that just simply don’t care what happens?
