These insurrection fools are fortunate they live in America

In the fact that their given due process, they are lucky. And they cry that jail is terrible yet they do not understand as they play victim , I point to China as example. By now you would be pushing up daisies and your family would have gotten the bill from the government for the round that was used for your execution. Feel fortunate traitors that you now are incarcerated in America.

While at the same time, incarcerating our minorities at a rate which, on it's face and plainly, reveals DEEP SYSTEMIC RACISM.

Is that why we're the "envy of the world"?

That is why they keep using that particular bit of propaganda, to keep us thinking that. Anyone who has traveled outside of the US (and left the tourist areas... this is important) and paid the slightest bit of attention can tell you. We are not seen as the walking sainthood, we are seen as idiots with money. And, they are correct.

Our kids play international tennis, we have friends and associates from all over the world. Many love Americans, some think we are dimwits. But truly there is no country that has few dimwits.

We have met some real scumbags from pretty much every country we have been too. The US is no more or less in the percentage of jerks departments. There are some real doozies pretty much in every country.

But do those countries go overboard trying to convince everyone that they are the greatest thing since sliced bread? We may not have any more or less jerks than the rest of the world, but we sure go out of our way to try and make the rest of the world think we have none. At all.

Royalist supporters moved themselves and their families to Canada or other places since their
support made them targets for our Independence faction.

It is interesting that today's reTHUG Fascists feel so entitled that they don't consider relocating and
and have wound up imprisoned. I myself generally oppose The Death Penalty but I am in favor of
jails, prisons and Gitmo as logical places to house them.

And if necessary, we are still capable of taking to the streets in large numbers to make sure that
things go the way we want them to. In 2020 we went to the polls in large numbers to elect
Biden-Harris and we can certainly carry through to make sure today's Fascists get exactly what they
deserve.

that would treat them just the way other authoritarian countries, like China, treat their ilk.

and most of them would be dead by now.

This is where they would have been taken to:

El Helicoide: From an icon to an infamous Venezuelan jail

[link:https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-46864864|

People, kids, are taken there just because they looked at a military person the wrong way, and most of the time they don't come out alive.

Venezuela is a sad story, and Robert Kennedy played a role in its demise, all because of oil. Yes, the country had a "dictator" at the time, but he was not the kind of dictator that oppressed people, most everything that is worth anything in that country was built by him, and the Elicoide was a futuristic idea that unfortunately was never brought to fruition because the USA got involved and Marcos Perez Jimenez was brought to Miami for crimes he did not commit. From then on the country was never the same, corruption went rampant and that corruption led to Hugo Chavez and now Nicolas Maduro.

People need to understand that when the middle class disappears, the end of Democracy is never too far away, we are seeing the signs today in the USA. The trumpers are people who have been disenfranchised from the economy, many of them to their own choice, but nonetheless they feel the pain of being left behind. Then you have those who were middle class at one time, and due to the economic inequality that has been allowed to take hold, they too become frustrated and stop trusting government, and that is what leads to dictatorship to whatever name you want to give it, communism, totalitarianism, dictatorship, etc., it is all the same, the end goal is for those who get in power to rule forever and marginalize the people, it never ends well, but some of those last too long and by the time it ends the country is in chaos.

When a part of society feel left behind that is when demagogues come in creating enemies within and out of the country, but enemies nonetheless in order to manipulate the masses. There we see trump making an enemy of everyone but his deplorables. Anyway, I am preaching to the choir.

Have a wonderful day, and lets hope Democrats continue to fight very hard to wake the country up to the evil that the GOP is, people need to see that republicans do not work to improve, they are all day trying to destroy, zero government work for the people, they are like cucarachas, all they do is destroy but never go away. It makes us tired of seeing republicans destroy every day, but we must stay firm and strong and do our little parts to help wake those who still believe in them.

They would all have faced a firing squad by now.

I doubt that even one of them is even vaguely aware of that.

They would have never made it past the barrier, assuming they were not gunned down for gathering in the first place. If they lived in the America that I wanted... they would not exist in the first place. But I digress...
