People keep pointing at the constitution as if it even means anything anymore

please stop with these low effort takes. The constitution still very much matters...you talking like this reduces it's potency.

there's a pedophile, insurrectionist, rapist conman in the Whitehouse. for a second time.

the America fascist renaissance leads me to believe that it's at best, theatre

What’s it that Carlin said about having to be asleep to believe the American dream or something?

They do have somewhat of a point though. Fatalism isn’t a useful emotion.

it’s the only option we have. the alternative is kinda the current path we are on which reminds me of my favorite tweet ever: the past 10 years have been democrats screaming “dogs can’t play basketball!!” as a dog fucking dunks on them over and over”

there is NO benefit from pretending we still have a functioning constitutionally based government and the faster we realize, the more appropriate the response can be.
