I was talking about the internal state of the USA and how it is not changing from its normal.

All the above what you said is true, but is not an increase of resistance from what is seen from years past.

Americans, as a group, cannot organize to resist; and this stops political violence from increasing

I don’t see a lot of violence happening by any side in the USA.

The social structures to promote a real resistance are simply gone, and have been eroded for decades. Without a real opposition the ice and their supporters will have nothing consistent to react against

I think there will be sporadic low key violence but nothing beyond a few individuals. And I think a lot Americans will be ashamed later as they just let these crimes happen, they will feel frustrated and become keyboard warriors.

Of all the charges I remember over the decades, I miss the fireflies the most.

And this is why billionaires should not control vital resources

I also think this reflects the true number of the user base: less reports because of what you said, and also there are less people who see the material

PTB but it was inflammatory. Truth often is.

There are many many people who wish your words were not factual, and the ban is not surprising to me

Unity centered around what? The party of the less bad? Of the horrible leadership? The party that only does one genocide? The not Trump party? The party of “we will not trash the economy”?

I could get behind that, but this federation has not been a democracy for a while. Not when you need more states won and several would require United Nations observers if they were countries. So, in some places it’s just a lost cause.

People need to be disabused of the notion this is a fair fight won by normal rules. New leadership and splintering is exactly what is needed.

True meritocracy had never been implemented in any human society larger than a small village.

It had been partially implemented in several places/times

What we have today is a partially implemented one in middle management, technocrats and engineers.

Where out of touch upper management and owners are the rule. But if I look at any successful company I will find the tech and middle management running it day to day
