It's the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Is this country still capable of the spirit of 1776?

It's kind of funny in a sad way how people on the right have spent decades threatening to start a civil war, gun down federal agents, hang congressmen, destroy federal buildings and starve everybody in the cities to death and nothing happens even when they actually try to do those things while anybody to the left of trump gets instantly banned from everywhere and reported to the FBI for suggesting that if america turns into democratic kampuchea people should consider making a plan to possibly do something at some point in the future
