    Fuck, man, we’re in the position we are because a plurality of the country out and declared they wanted fascism, and a supermajority said they agreed or didn’t give a shit. “It wasn’t democracy because democracy only returns good results” isn’t the conclusion you should be drawing.

      Stay strong, my man. As bright as it may seem across the atlantic, we are plagued by disinformation and fascism is looming over us as well. In fact some governments have already fallen. However, there is a little of hope since some leaders are finally trying to do something about it, a little too late, but better late than never.

    Not sleeping just carrying out the same promotion and preservation of democracy they used to do elsewhere.

    Remember the Wall Street Putsch - the Business Plot. This isn’t the first time the rich have shown a clear preference for fascism, but we’re going to have to convince them to try again later, somehow or another.
