Citizens United made it worse, but we were fucked before then. Lobbying is just legalized bribery. We need to repeal Citizens United but then we need to keep going and rework the whole campaign finance and lobbying systems too.

They would like a turd if told to like it. "This turd owns libs"
But I don't believe anyone can actually like him.
He also said he'd have people on mars by 2024...
Oh that would be tough if you were an actor who thinks children deserve to live.
True. It's partially just a dropping of pretenses, but to keep up those pretenses we sometimes had to have justice. Now that the act is gone I'm afraid the small bit of justice the disenfranchised did have is gone with it.
Oh there is. There is no rule of law, no equity of law, but there is law. And it will be used as harshly and aggressively as possible on the poor, minorities, Democrats, the press, universities, etc.
It kind of sounds like a form of exposure therapy.
I was not able to read this, as I am an idiot, but I upvoted just for the effort.
Cops in the USA, as well as being scum, are terrified. The population has almost no access to mental health care, near unlimited access to guns, and many reasons to not trust the police. The police are also trained as "warriors" instead of guardians with a us vs them mentality. I'd imagine besides the legal ramifications, Uk and Eu police are just not as scared shitless and therefore don't start popping off when an acorn hits their car or a 13 year old has a stick.
He'll probably get a big payout from the taxpayers, and the crooked cops will just keep on copping.
