    I don’t think she should be careful. If anything, being as loud as possible and staying in the public eye is what all Democrats should be doing. Because if they do start deporting people that actually speak the truth everyone will know when and how it happens. You can’t hide it and they can’t effectively make a move against her that won’t be seen by the entire world. And I think it’s a sign that we all need to start doing this. If we’re loud and seen instead of raging behind our phone screens it’s a lot harder for people to just disappear.

      Exactly. We are in this mess because the Democrats and the media immediately declared an obviously rigged election to be “fair & square” the moment it was over. Being smug about the “peaceful transfer of power” was more important to those weak cowards than protecting America from being destroyed by vicious Nazi traitors.

        What’s your evidence it wasn’t fair and square? I mean actual sources, not the previously generalized high-level accusations like “they faked the vote count”. I’d be very interested to see them.

          You mean actual verified facts like hundreds of thousands of people being purged from roles in shithole red states by the fascist traitors?

          Or do you mean like when the traitor himself said that Elon was “really good with the voting machines in Pennsylvania”?

          Or “we don’t really need your votes”?

            Something a little more concrete than contextualized public statements or the well known tactics of voter roll purges and gerrymandering, etc.

            Like vote tallies not matching or something like that.

      I didn’t mean “be careful” as in “don’t say these things,” I agree with you -she should DEFINITELY say these things. I mean “be careful” as in “don’t walk to your car unattended, answer the door without checking, talk to police, or take any meetings with someone you don’t know.” - that sort of careful.

        Oh yeah, definitely. I just want her to be safe but also not back down even a little bit. She’s making waves and needs to continue to do so.
