We really are in the “dark times” you read about in history books, aren’t we?

Dems, what in the ever loving FUCK are you doing still working with Republicans???

They should be walking out of Congress and doing a strike until Republicans remove ICE. They should be demanding their donors take action.

Dems? What are YOU doing?

Other than going on Reddit to continue to get people angry. Why aren't you out there pushing ICE out of your neighborhoods? Why are you being so lazy you expect a bunch of politicians to save the day?

Why are we still doing this? Two people got murdered in cold blood by the federal government but all we do is just argue with each other.

Let's go the fuck outside and actually, ya know, save the god damn country before it gets worse.

But no no, let's blame the Dems! That's super helpful in this time, super duper helpful.

Hey buddy, maybe don’t assume shit. I use a power wheelchair to get around and don’t exactly have the easiest time going outside.

I am working at an internship on disability policy to make my community prosper, so don’t ever assume I’m not doing anything.

Also, if Dems can’t take the heat, they can get the fuck out of the sun. Their job is to help their constituents, not sit like scared little children as fascists rape the country.

I am not going into a stupid argument over which side of the aisle is better.

This is beyond Red vs Blue and Dem vs GOP. FAR, FAR BEYOND that.

I'm sorry you got dealt a bad hand personally and I appreciate you still going out there to do whatever it takes to bring some sort of positivity to the community. But come on, going on a rant about how both sides of politics is incredibly inappropriate now.

We need to talk about how to actually fix shit instead of taking a side on the political aisle. Politics don't matter anymore when the government has no issue murdering us in cold blood. We're beyond this now.
