minus-squareexplodicle@local106.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·10 months agoI don’t think the left would be very surprised, we’d just keep focusing on direct action. Centrist Democrats already DGAF if we’re mad. Liberals would call it “unacceptable” for a few months, maybe do a couple protests, and then continue to vote for the people who got him pardoned. Nothing would change.

Without extreme action from the left and no legal pushback from the Democrats, that would mean the right could do whatever the hell it wants without consequence, including genocide. Why aren’t we overthrowing them?
