It’s hard to take a day off. You’re trying to relax but your brain is still burning up with deep thoughts like “people are not angry enough.”

FFS, we have a bunch of fascist oligarchs with unbridled power, like Elon Musk & Peter Thiel, that have openly stated they want to end democracy, but we can't get angry!

Most don’t want inconveniences with what it takes for a more powerful uprising/resistance. Instead: Clutch pearls, bitch-post, occasionally hold sign Saturday march on day-off, return to watching the game, place Amazon order, fight for Trader Joe’s tote, repeat. Well-trained obedient citizenry.

I saw recently that people living in Nazi Germany really didn't recognize how bad things were until the allies began bombing them. Strongmen are especially good at spinning a story of how they are totally in control and the country is getting stronger. Until it's not.

And ironically it's Trump who is metaphorically bombing the blue states with ICE, National Guard, and Border Patrol who kill, jail, and deport citizens on the streets for all to see with their own eyes to silence.

OR when you try to get away from rural Ohio, where some of your neighbors are actually putting up NEW Trump flags, and go to Myrtle Beach, where some souvenir stores are actually sell fucking Trump/MAGA hats! 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

The capitalists have made sure the American public get just enough to worry about losing it by revolting against the government. When people have nothing to lose, that's when they rise up. We aren't there. Yet.

Happy Father's day to the big G! The Dad to all. #1 Father. 😉 What? You're not the actual God? The cloud surfing alpha & omega? The bearded & wise eldest of all elders? That's okay. Just make sure he gets the message, please. And, since you play him on BlueSky, Happy Father's Day. Take the day off.

Be careful, take a run or something. I’m not saying he caused it, but I developed a-fib the last time he was president. I remember having a loud guttural reaction, screaming “NO NO NO!” while watching a policeman beat up a young female during the BLM protest. I don’t think that helped my heart much.

Apathy and learned help are the first steps to not just allowing but cooperating in your own subjugation. When you have a society that values competition above cooperation and compassion the job is much easier for the oppressors/ tyrants/ colonizers to take advantage of the situation. Here we are😳

The realtor who I worked with said, "I'm just putting one foot in front of the other." I think that is true of most Americans. They are not paying attention.

Yes I was furious before any recent events in politics, as soon as I was old enough to realize human failure to control its aggressive and stupid in our population. It's just on steroids for profit now.

If I were only angrier the rest of my life would make sense. Really, I couldn''t muster a quality punch with three months in the gym + designer drugs. I feel you. I do. So, who is it again I am supposed to shoot that will make anything that's going on better than it is?

People aren’t angry enough because no one is bothering to get them fired up. Dems did a terrible job of making voters understand the terrible danger of a trump win? Congress and the DOJ knew about trump’s election fraud and foreign interference but turned away. A trump win worked in their favor too.

I'm 69, arthritis in hands & knees, living in ruby red Fl & have been to 20 protest, actually started the protest in our county. Started a neighborhood group for organizing, got banned from all meta platforms for organizing. Make calls to our worthless representatives. Personally, I'm trying.

It's not that they're not angry enough. It's that they don't know how to channel it properly. Then, mental health starts deteriorating. You work it out on your screens, strangers, friends, kids, animals, etc. USA folks have been angry for a very long time.

When the courts fail us it will be time. Currently he isn't winning the court battles. 1 here, 1 there, not enough to make a difference. 1 of 10 he may win. The anger can be released in our votes. Celebrate 250 as a proud American. 🇺🇲 Do not let him take that from us or its another win for him.

AMERICANS TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU THAT EVERYONE HAS TO PROACTIVELY GET INVOLVED/REMAIN ACTIVELY ENGAGED, & PROACTIVELY PREPARE TO VOTE IN EARLY VOTING, PRIMARIES, & IN THE MID-TERM ELECTIONS WITHOUT DELAY NOW💯🗳💙!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I get why you threw in piss stains like netanyahu, putin, trump and all their evil enablers. Unfortunately to really piss me off you actually would have to exist.
