      There is no doubt that people will fight. The major problem is everyone is just watching the enemy dig in, organize, arm themselves, and sabotage us before acting.

      For the US anyway, we are broken in to almost thirds. 1/3 hate it, 1/3 love it, and 1/3 literally don’t know anything is happening right now. The ultra rich fractured us really well. Other countries will be better off because you guys still have free healthcare and education which makes your populations INCREDIBLY smarter than a normal american. Don’t ever give those up

      I am intimately aware of the sheer apathy of the American electorate. That being said, it always holds true that any government is just a few empty meals away from violence. Starvation had already captured people Americans are taught deserve it; we’ll see when msm can’t cover up in encroaching on more, though.

          I respect that. Closest I get is FreeTube. But, as dying as msm is, it isn’t dead yet. Nobody trusts it, but everybody watches it. It’s state-media at this point, and its talking points disseminate all the same. It will get to a point where it can’t contain the stories anymore, though, of that I have no doubt.
