Unless of course you don't support the Constitution. And unless our elected officials whose oaths of offices demand that this is their main job, to protect and defend the Constitution, just take those oaths for show.
Is it all just for show, this pretext that we are Democracy which respects human rights and the rule of law? If so, then just say so and my arguments would be based on THAT. But so long as we are pretending to be a Democracy, there is no defense for the policies of this government.
And no need to make up false scenarios. We ARE killing innocent people around the world. There has been NO accountability for the crimes committed. And people are demanding it, and will continue to do so until we are told outright, 'your democracy is a myth'. I haven't heard that officially yet so I'm still arguing under the belief there has not been a coup yet.
