From now on whenever there is a disaster .... don't expect any comfort from your leadership, Americans are on their own now.
- embrace the core principals of anarchism if you want to survive.
  help your neighbors in times of crisis
  this is a time of crisis
  morality does not come from the state
  the state's power comes from the consent of the governed
  with unity through solidarity of the exploited we can withdraw our consent to be governed
  it's our bosses, not our brothers and sisters, who harm us

They enabled this out of their unwillingness to see the bigger picture out of their virtue signalling and holier than thou attitude. All of us are now along for the 4-year ride. Thanks, fuckers.
- Wdym now? There's a reason "thoughts and prayers" has been a meme for years now lol
- Honestly we kind of always have been. At the very minimum since Reagan. But we absolutely are getting ready to hit the new level of shit ,and the people who need to learn lessons. Are immune to learning.
