      I obviously disagree with this ruling, but if they were to rule the opposite on California, the absolute sheer corruptness would be undeniable. And worthily of drastic and dramatic action on our (the citizens) part.

          Okay but then it’ll be double plus undeniable. People will definitely do something in response. You’ll see.

        Citizens wouldn’t even vote in their own interest, and now it’s too late. I’m convinced tens of millions of Americans will die quietly before even one stands up.

          I’m inclined to agree, but I’ve seen signs of potential unrest.

          A household that has been decades gun free just got their sixth gun this year and a lot of ammo. Specifically citing a potential to stand their ground or die trying. We are talking about people who have lived 60 years without so much as a traffic ticket, never protesting anything, generally going along with things, now they they armed for talking a stand.

          Another mild mannered colleague that has been super peaceful and moderate is similarly talking about how “we” might have to violently fight. No idea what prep he might do, but his was the last voice I expected to hear say that.

          If people I’ve known to be very even keeled and moderate for decades are getting this close, I can’t imagine how close others are…

          I suppose we’ve been seeing the cracks start with two attempted trump assassinations and the Charlie Kirk assassination…

          I wonder how all the sanctimonious fucks who wouldn’t vote because of the Israel situation are feeling now

        Their sheer corruptness is already undeniable. The six right wing hacks regularly make decisions that are blatantly and obviously unconstitutional and write nonsense opinions to justify them. They openly accept huge bribes from those impacted by their decisions and then rule in their favor. If the GOP gave a damn about the rule of law and the Constitution they would have been impeached long ago.
