    You want to stop the war on immigration? You have to remove DHS. It should never have existed.

    Removing ICE is not enough. The demands should be impossibly high and compromised with the elimination of DHS and all laws stemming from the insanity that was 9/11. We never did the work to repair that damage, we were straight torturing people for fun.

    Next up is the War on Drugs. We really fucked ourselves up and destroyed millions of families just to suppress minorities. The reparations for this would be in the trillions.

    Finally our addiction to war and death. The US is responsible for more deaths than any nation ever and kills its own citizens at a shocking pace. We lost more citizens to gun violence in the last thirty years than we lost in every war we have ever fought combined. It has to stop.

    We don’t have enough time and energy to fix all the problems we have caused. The answer is not to go for broke though. We need selfless leaders who think decades ahead. There is no future until we make it.

    Yeah, but she probably loves the genocide too. Right, my lefties? Republican wins 4 eva! 💪 Don’t forget to throw away your votes again in November! Hey maybe Jill Stein will run for all House seats everywhere! I’m sure that’s also a realistic expectation!

      No, don’t you see? When fighting a vastly more powerful and well equipped adversary, DON’T fight them at the ballot box where the balance gives you the best odds… Systematically undermine and destroy that system so you can fight them PHYSICALLY, where they have every single advantage. It’s more pure and noble that way.
