    I’ve learned that when Trump’s goon squad murders citizens the only ones allowed to investigate it are Trump’s police force, meaning that there will be no consequences forthcoming from the government, making the government illegitimate. That limits the public’s recourse to vigilante justice and full scale rebellion if we want to be free

      Violent rebellion is almost definitely the only way we escape from this hell

      The right has made it extremely clear that they are not in it for actual civility, or creating a coherent society. The right are here because they want to torture and hurt others, they want to rape and murder and torment freely without punishment, because they’re deranged, demented sadists.

      You CANNOT civilize with that kind of person, no amount of talking is going to convince them to sit down and think about principle.
