  • I don’t disagree with you that society as a whole has become spineless. People who stand up in defense of anything morally correct are rarely backed up anymore.

    That being said, the scenario you put forth is a huge leap from the slow suffocation that is currently happening. A billionaire/CEO/tyrant/shadowpresident spraying bullets into an innocent crowd is a huge leap that would be neigh impossible to not have people lose their shit over.

    But tell them they are talking to people all wrong and suddenly we are all Russian bots, or trolls, or secretly Trumpers

    This bit is generally in response to the fact that the only time this rhetoric is heard is right before an election. Where was this talk and push for change the last four years? Where were the mass protests when Biden was in office and might have listened to a shutdown? Or at any point when the world wasn’t staring down the barrel of a new hitler?

    You can want positive change from your own political party while also acknowledging that they are still standing on higher ground than an actual Nazi. Time and a place for each.
