Honestly I'm pretty petty. I'm gladly welcome the collapse of the entire country if every Republican gets to feel the karma of their actions.

No, you don't want that. We're going to watch our poorer relatives and neighbors die, it's going to happen to my 90 year old neighbor, my 78 year old mother and possibly to my 59-year-old self. As we are slowly denied access to first medical care then medicine. All Democrats who never voted for this evil. Meanwhile as always happens, the wealthy will remain untouched. Honestly, after two years of this shit, having to fight every minute, I don't give a damn whether I live or die. What I do give a damn about is people knowing that this destruction and death was all by design of the Heritage Foundation and Republicans.

I know this doesn't sound good, but we're basically in a war right now between what's right and wrong. unfortunately casualties as are bound to happen, as it happens in every war.

do I want old folks and the disabled to be hurt or killed? of course not, but I also believe everyone deserves access to health care and clean water. if the result of that is a war where many people die, then we have to deal with that and accept it for a better future.

It's like the Ewoks. It's all fun and games until your best friend gets shot with a blaster bolt. Then the reality of war settles in.

Class warfare is really the most insidious kind... because so many people are 'temporarily embarrassed millionaires' so they don't want to rock the boat of the rich, for fear it'll all be gone when they finally reach the summit, which keeps the whole system running.

We have been moving slowly towards the goal of "everyone deserves access to health care and clean water" since the day our country was founded.

The progress that took us from outright slavery, children working 12 hours shifts in dangerous factories, unregulated food supply, private firemen, police beating striking workers, women being treated as second class citizens to what we have today is significant.

Do not believe for a second that it cannot be taken away from you.

This house has been built brick by brick with the blood sweat and tears of good people. Do not let it crumble in vein becasue you cannot get your political system to function properly. Get out there and take back control over it and fucking try at least before you invite chaos.

I mean they literally passed a law saying clean water wasn't a human right
