    I love my country,

    Not even sure how to respond to this kind of vague emotional ideology. When people say this kinda stuff to me in person, I back away slowly.

      I want America to prosper and I want to protect American values from right-wing radicals that are in charge. I’m very passionate about it. In fact, I live in a red state and I want it to just be better and no longer radicalized by lies and hate.

      I very passionately want America to heal from this illness of hate and apathy.

      If that makes me a bad person, then fuck me I guess.

          I don’t think it can be overthrown today; surveillance of means of communication is now total; their only restriction is the massive amount of data.

          It CAN collapse in on itself, that is inevitable.

          I would be delighted if I was proved wrong.

            Revolution happens in crisis, it isn’t something you can force. That being said, as the US Empire is deteriorating, this makes it more and more likely to hit a crisis that can turn into revolution every passing day.
