You know who’s really doing fuck all in this?

The military. Try to hold a dictator parade, and they walk and wave and smile. Try to make them protect ICE? They stand stone still in front of the building. Try to make them take over DC? They walk around DC and start picking up trash. They had to be ordered to start carrying weapons

Meanwhile, Abrego Garcia is still in the country… For now. The first concentration camp is being shut down and dismantled. The tarrifs are going away if the supreme Court doesn’t step in

ICE, the brown shirts, aren’t scary. They’re strong to the weak and weak to the strong. I’ve seen them run from a half dozen random people walking towards them slowly, and they’re also pulling guns on children

Fascists are in control of all three branches of government, but it’s a pale imitation of fascism as we know it. They really aren’t getting to do much fascism, because when Trump tried to outlaw flag burning the very next day someone came to the white house and burned a flag

What’s really happening is an empire is dying. A cruel system has stopped pretending to be fair. You want us to do something… We’re doing lots of things to fight a system rigged against us.

If you’re waiting for the glorious revolution… It’s just not happening. It’s all just going to burn down painfully slowly. Maybe we can wrest back control and guide it a little, especially at a local level… But there’s no putting out the fire
