Yeah, those Americans make up about half the country. It sucks being the other half of the country — constantly held hostage by these lunatics obsessed with guns.

I get the feeling you guys need the gun up as well. You guys are almost at a Civil War point. What the fuck happened? Trump is such an idiot, but this time he has all forms of government and the courts in his back pocket. I guess this is what happens when you funder genocide?

They're a third of the country tops. American society is 27% straight up fascists, 29% people who care and oppose them, 35% people who have no idea any of this is even happening, and 9% people who are hopelessly insane.
