Cowardice and AI gets insta-blocked. Not reading your excuses.
Which American are you?
- "I already [describes basic-ass participation in democracy]! What do you expect me to DOOO?"
- “We can’t fight back because then the Nazis will take the opportunity to punish us harder”
- “it’s not as EASY as you seem to think”
- “Yeah, well what have YOU done??”
- “Did you not see the VERY effective and not-at-all-a-huge-joke No Kings protests?”
- “Keyboard warrior!”
- “I can’t have principles, I might lose the shitty job I hate!”
- “I believe that every historical revolutionary to whom I owe my prosperity was a Disney character with no family or livelihood at stake and who never really had to risk anything because in my child-brain their victory was guaranteed.”
You've been sleepwalking into it for 30, 40 years.
You've let your buddy drive drunk for the entire road trip, quietly scolding him while giving everyone else the finger for deigning to suggest maybe you should take the wheel or at very least take away his keys. Now that you're headed toward that cliff, you like to pretend this is something you just now became aware of, but... huh, you're STILL not doing anything about it.
