      That’s fine. I’m worried about getting kidnapped by ice at customs on my way back in, so I’m not visiting anywhere for a bit. White US citizen born in NY btw, but that will hardly matter when they go after leftists or non trump voters or anybody who seems a little too “woke” for their liking.

      “First they came for…” famously has several stanzas. None of us is safe from them.

        Depends on what “we” means. I didn’t vote for this shit and do not deserve any of this.

        Same for those too young to vote, etc…as for Republicans and those that stayed home or voted a protest vote because the Democrats did not give them a pretty, pretty pony, well…

      This is such a bigger problem than America. Our “leadership” is threatening the entire world’s health and safety. I am literally begging other countries to take this seriously, this is a spreading problem (and I don’t just mean the avian flu) this algorithmic destabilization of intellectual democracy is powered by international funding and if it doesn’t kill you directly, it will indirectly as something like the bird flu mutates and makes Covid look like the sniffles.

      Fight America, but also fight for your own sovereignty and get money out of politics and make your leadership understand it’s a matter of life and death.
