It's also why I believe that the Regime will have to fall - and we have to take drastic measures so we never pass this way again.

We had a chance in 1877 - and we failed.

We had a chance 2021 - and we failed.

That includes harsh, cold treatment of traitors to the constitution. I'm sure some online gamer or goody goody status quo upholder will come along and say I sound ominous to try and bait me into being specific. My response?

We did it your way after the Civil War and and for 50+ years after the CRA and VRA.

As Nina Simone sang: I don't trust you anymore.

Yes, you lied to me all these years
You told me to wash and clean my ears
And talk real fine just like a lady
And you'd stop calling me Sister Sadie
Oh, but this whole country is full of lies
You're all gonna die and die like flies
I don't trust you anymore
You keep on saying, "Go slow"
Go slow
But that's just the trouble (too slow)
Desegregation (too slow)
Mass participation (too slow)
Reunification (too slow)
Do things gradually (too slow)
But bring more tragedy (too slow)
Why don't you see it? Why don't you feel it?
I don't know, I don't know


Get out of our way. Sit down and do what y'all have done for decades. Give me platitudes and
mollycoddle racist, sexist, anti-semitic, evil Christo Fascists.

That approach has been an epic failure. I'm fucking done.
