Not justifying what's happened in anyway, but people out on the street now when these scum have been empowered to murder with impunity are incredibly stupid.
Stupid sounds kinda harsh but I get what you mean. It
is dangerous. But it's also brave and necessary.
Look at Iran, where thousands of protestors have been killed by the regime. When people decide that is enough is enough and try to make their voices heard it results in death and suffering in most cases. But it's also the only way to fight for change. Simply rolling over and letting Trump and his goons do whatever they want isn't gonna help things either. People are being abducted and terrorized either way. Might as well go down fighting.
Which obviously is very easy for me to say, being on the other side of the planet and without having to risk
my skin. I've attended a bunch of anti-AFD protests here, even some which turned violent, but I cannot say with a 100% certainty that I'd still go protesting once civilians end up killed by "law enforcement". So maybe it is hypocritical of me to hope that Americans rise to the occasion and fight back against their fascist regime.
But at the same time, what else are people supposed to do? Fascism is not sustainable and sooner or later everything will collapse. I don't think ICE and the current admin will ever end up facing any consequences, just look at how the people involved with Jan 6th were pardoned. But we can also see that the DHS's lies are
too blatant. We have too many videos that show exactly what's happening on the ground. And the people are
pissed. Independents are slowly turning against Trump. Far too late but things are finally unravelling. He might have the support of his loyal cult but the rest of the country hates him more and more with each passing day. MAGA obviously won't die with him but if the Midterms happen without too much GOP fuckery (big if) the Republicans might lose a lot of control and power.
