            There’s a lot more being threatened. Tge whole US economy is going down tge shitter and it has global effects.

            Not to mention clean water act and food safety, assuming they live in the US.

              Ha. To be fair, I initially thought you were a turd… only to read further on down.

              Its a good question, really. Sans protests that feel like marginal change. Voting and/or demonetizing places/people that that support the American lunatics, has been my go to.

                So the only thing you’re doing - from your original comment - is crying about it?

                Thanks for showing up

                  @lIlIlIlIlIlIl @hoohoohoot

                  I live in the US and, frankly, you’re helpless against a SWAT sniper, let alone a drone. That’s not how you keep your freedoms.
                  MLK showed how it’s done, although I do expect to see fighting around this election.

                  A vest/gas mask would be a good purchase, but a combination of too expensive and uncomfortable.

                  Edit: And, yeah, they’re just now becoming able to see how shock waves travel through your brain and tear up all kinds of those axon/dendrite connections.

                Id rather have potential head injuries than have my freedom threatened and the only thing you can do is cry about it

                The ones you implied in your original comment that made you sound like a 2nd amendment nut from the US.

        If you’re in the US, you are. Your democracy has been attacked, is being attacked. Freedom of speech is under attack, the government is implimenting mass surveillance programs and where they aren’t they’re purchasing data from commercial mass surveillance programs. Trump just cleared out the commissioners of election watchdog so there are none. The list goes on and on and on.
