We've tried voting. We've tried peacefully protesting. But there is a small, powerful elite of wealthy people who control this country, they get rich on the backs of the work of others, they contribute nothing. They are a parasitic element, and I really wish it were the case that there's another way toc hange things. But there is not. The only language these dotards understand is force. And they've pretty much take away every other tool that could possibly bring about change. I see no way to resolve the issues plaguing the United States other than a civil war. The contradictions run too deep, like slavery in the 1800s.

We've tried other methods, and they all fail. Bernie Sanders was the closest thing we had to something vaguely resembling systemic change (and even then it was rather milquetoast). Despite the fact that the largest protests in American history ocurred as a backlash and an outcry against police brutality and racism, cops continue to execute Black and Brown people in disproportionate numbers (any number greater than 0 is disproportionate). Killer cops get off scot-free. Sure, Chauvin and his buddies got locked up. But how many Derek Chauvins continue to collect a check? Despite the unpopularity of war, our military and the politicians in charge continue to invade whoever the fuck they want, send weapons to whatever Nazis they want, all while children starve and people die of a virus. We've gotten some of "our people" in Congress like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, but they all become corrupt. They all reneg on their promises. Sure, they might toss us some craps. Maybe we'll even get some student loan relief. But the modern day slave economy taht revolves around prison labor ,that will never change. The endless war and imperialist bloodshed, that's a bipartisan issue. And it's killing not only our fellow Americans, its also killing brown people across the ocean in untold numbers.

We have a reactionary and anti-democratic council of 9 geriatrics who can unilaterlly override the popular will of the people, and then they surround themselves with modern-day centurions. They know their choices are fucked up, which is why they have a paramilitary force of armed guards read to repress popular outcry over Roe v Wade. It's why they construct barriers around the building. If you feel you have to protect yourself so strongly due to public backlash, you probably made the wrong choice.

I wish there were a peaceful way to resolve this. But every possible solution has been tried at this point except for one - an armed uprising. An insurgency. We've tried voting our way out of this crisis, we've tried peaceful protests, we've tried campagining for politcians, we've written our elected officials, we've attended city council meetings. Yet things just keep getting worst and worst. I really don't want this to be the outcome. Wars suck. Violence sucks. People get hurt and die. But I don't see any other way to change this society for the better than to fight back against the oppressors, because they've removed every single peaceful and non-violent means by which to reassert balance and fix the issues at hand. They have dug their own graves, and now its time for us, the people, to push them into it
