Everyone acts like there's no easy solutions...
In fact we know of very effective solutions at stopping fascists, nazis, and terrorists.
For some reason that just isn't an option for most people. It wouldn't be proper to fight back.

Did anyone read the 2025 plan? Or pay attention to the actions of oligarchs and Republicans over the last several decades? I don't understand why this is surprising news, they haven't exactly been quiet about what they want. What's happening now is the result of an extremely slow moving train that left the station in the 1930's.

Why even give a nod to musk's lies about efficiency and present them at face value?
