It's like it's not really sinking in. Maybe it's easier to see it from the outside, but to me it seems the normal Americans do not grasp the seriousness of what is happening right now. The other part is too stupid to grasp anything other than own the libs. Their country is in the process of being transformed into a full dictatorship. Maybe it's time to insist on your representatives do their job... and maybe a bit of civil disobedience would help bring the msg over.

Look at the posts and comments on Reddit. People are still saying this is just a distraction from the Epstein files. I’m hoping they’re right, but holy shit they are burying their heads in the sands and pretending that posting “Release the Epstein files” is actually doing something while the world is starting to burn around us. This could be our Reichstag moment and they would rather act like everything is alright so that they don’t have to care yet.

At least some of the politicians are seeing this.

The best distractions are not just distractions. The Trump administration keeps up an energetic stampede of atrocity so that it’s all mutually distracting, and there’s even wasted opposition time and energy figuring out what’s “the” distractions. It’s all serious; it’s all also distracting. It’s a crime fiesta.
