I’m not trying to fedpost or any form of illegal-to-say-posting in any form, more just marveling at the entirely lackluster response of the American public to the maddeningly absurd state of American politics.

Of course Americans are the most propagandized people on Earth, but it’s been that way for generations, and at this point I feel like the sheer amount of shit that is allowed to just fly by with full knowledge of the public with little or no cool-zone moments is preposterous. Not to mention the fact that as things continue to get worse, there are more and more people who are desperate and/or unwell, and in such a position as to incite some crazy shit.

Like… at this point, it’s just open knowledge that the government is a cabal of bloated parasitic pedophiles, and it has been so for quite some time now. Not just “they MIGHT be doing some creepy shit”, but rather they definitely, 100%, without any question have been, are, and will continue to do the most abhorrent type of shit anyone can imagine, for their own sick satisfaction and greed. Conversely, the number of people who’ve lost someone to the soul-sucking nightmare that is our healthcare system, or who’ve lost a child or loved one in any of our many shootings, or any number of other reasons to be righteously revolted by this manufactured reality we live in, is surely immense.

While some people are obviously acting out in all the most disgustingly wrong ways (i.e. said shootings), there’s quite a lot of people who know the correct people to blame for our collective misery, who also have nothing left to lose, because they’ve tragically lost it all already.

So… am I just wrong to expect that more cool-zone type shit should be going down by now?

    They have never been bombed or executed extrajudicially

    MOVE bombing? Daniel Shaver?

    Sure it doesn’t happen regularly to most of us, but the American government absolutely does do this shit to Americans too.

      Americans have always gotten lynched, but never to the scale of what happened in Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Indonesia or Guatemala. When the Klan was operating in the South more or less unrestricted, you saw actual community organizing and defense-attempts, but the black community was too spread to offer any real protection from the overwhelming number of klansmen, who also had the backing of the state’s army if anyone truly dared to fight back in an organized capacity. We all saw what happened to the BPP when they tried to organize into real self defense and picking up arms.
