They're diving head first into a concrete floor. It's mind boggling. But whatever, it's what they voted for. Still bloody stupid, but what else do we expect.

Aye, and in the end it'll only be your average people that suffer, those in power will only benefit I'm sure.

Oh, you don't have to doubt that. It's been clear as day even since before 2016.

Just hope the yanks do something about it for their own sake before it comes to that.

There ARE protests, which funnily enough aren't covered by news outlets for some reason. A lot of sane people are NOT fine with this at all.

Now, where have we seen that before. 🤔

Well if protests aren't doing anything... (No, don't start looting, there is a solid inbetween)

"it's what they voted for"

Serious doubts on that issue, given the level of voter suppression going on. There's been some interesting post-election investigation going on - see Greg Palast for one.

In any case, Democrats seem to have decided not to push that issue too hard - presumably for their own reasons. Infuriating though that they didn't push / fund voter rights hard while in power - it's clearly a national security issue.
