      How do you think those protections were won in other countries? Indeed those few that are in America? By asking nicely? By quietly waiting through six months of the demolition of rule of law and any form of backing for the little protections you do have?

      Your comment belongs on X, with the other variations on “No, it’s fine, just sit there, eventually the right date to express your dissatisfaction in a completely safe and risk-free way will come around and your children will thank you that you didnt risk your mortgage even if they express it mainly by sterilising themselves so they never have to be so beholden to a future that will never come as you were.”

      You’re kidding right? You know most of “those people” without protections you speak of are going to be targeted next. First they come for the trans and gays and the disabled and sick. No worries. That’s not me. Then they come for the poor. That’s all good that’s not me either.

      Then they come for you. Oops.

      Those workers without protections won’t have jobs soon enough. The world outside of your little American bubble is making sure of that. Question is

      Will you fight then?
