Snyder v. US is the Republican justices’ latest decision weakening anti-corruption laws.
How much general legitimacy does the regime have there? Do people not want to overthrow/replace it by this point?
Man, you can’t even get people to do anything about actual concentration camps. Like, some people tried to organize raids on the places where humans were being held because they dared to cross a border, in horrible conditions, including children. Nobody did a gods damned thing. A lot of fucking noise about how “somebody” should do something, but they couldn’t.
Yet another black man was murdered by police a few years ago, and people did rise up a little, but didn’t have the will or stamina to do the job all the way to the finish.
Truth? The people that think they’re all progressive and good are fucking complacent. They really think that they can fix the system from the inside without any sacrifice.
Fuck, you can’t even get far left radicals to actually do something concrete.
Meanwhile, the far right has ridden on the coat tails of racism and hate until they’ve been taken over completely by the racists and fascists, but they’re united enough via identity politics that they’ll never, ever let go of what they’ve gained without an actual, real fight.

Just for clairity…what does finishing the job all the way entail? What would that process be? I assume you’re talking about George Floyd? From what I saw there were national protests. A few cities, including his own, got violent at times. I even heard of certain Canadian cities protesting. Which in my mind made little sense, but I appriciate the gesture.
But what more, short of killing every cop, are you suggesting be done?
Pull down everyone in power and rebuild a nation. That’s what revolution is
The point is to keep escalating until the government cannot just keep throwing cops at the problem. This, however, requires some level of popular support, which does not seem possible given that about half the American electorate is fine with slavery in the first place.
Dude, please get the fuck over yourself. ‘Actual concentration camps’ fucking REALLY??? Please shut the fuck up with that heinous bullshit. Yeah, the conditions are shit, but it is NOWHERE CLOSE to actual concentration camps that were used for an actual genocide. Seriously dude, fuck off.
