A Coup Is In Progress In America
A Coup Is In Progress In America
A coup is underway in the United States, and we must stop pretending otherwise. The signs are unmistakable and accelerating: in just the past 48 hours, Elon Musk’s DOGE commission has seized …

This is an emergency, and it demands emergency response from every American with power or influence. The window for effective resistance narrows with each passing day. History will judge harshly those who had the capacity to resist but chose instead to wait and see how things develop. The time to act is now, before the mechanisms that would allow effective resistance are completely dismantled.
The alarms are being sounded, and not just from this publication. If nobody that has even a shred of power does anything... well fuck.
If nobody that has a shred of power does anything
why would they start now?
What can I do? Shit posting hasn't helped.
What Lenin did was far worse.

We aren't going to fix Traitorapist Trump's enshitification by using Lenin's far worse enshitification of Russia as a guide.
why are you linking me to obvious us propaganda? lenin oversaw one of the biggest and quickest jumps in quality of life for people in history.
if you are that intent on rejecting socialism, i don't know what to tell you. we never properly defeated fascism without it.

Why should anybody believe you when you have to use an easily disproven lie the very first thing you said because there is no legitimate way to explain the horrors of what happened in the USSR? The author was a Soviet citizen who never set foot in the USA until after his entire 3 volume series was published. He had collected a lot of material because he was a 7 year victim of Stalin's Gulag.

[Aleksandr Isayevich Solzhenitsyn[a][b] ⓘ (11 December 1918 – 3 August 2008)[6][7] was a Russian author and Soviet dissident who helped to raise global awareness of political repression in the Soviet Union, especially the Gulag prison system. He was awarded the 1970 Nobel Prize in Literature "for the ethical force with which he has pursued the indispensable traditions of Russian literature".[8] His non-fiction work The Gulag Archipelago "amounted to a head-on challenge to the Soviet state" and sold tens of millions of copies.[9]]
Khrushchev himself personally approved of Solzhenitsyn's previous book about Stalin's Gulag. Was the leader of the USSR also peddling "obvious US propaganda"? LMFAO.............

The author shows over and over in his book that the roots of Stalinism go right back to Lenin.
[Solzhenitsyn painstakingly laid the theoretical, legal, and practical origins of the Gulag system at Lenin's feet, not Stalin's.]
How is randomly arresting people in places like train stations and libraries in order to fulfill a police arrest quota from the top dictator a "jump in quality of life" LMFAO! Lenin and his party started the biggest enshitification of any country in history. Who the f*ck would ever want to live in a country where such as things as arrest quotas of random people exist? You would literally be risking your life every time you left your apartment.
What can I do?
Depends on how much you you value you freedom/life, cuz the things that need to be done could put both in jeopardy. Leave your cell phone at home.
Post harder?
Post through the pain
Look for protests to join. Call email call your reps. There's got to be a way to sue, but i don't know anything about that route.
If all fails there's a funny amendment in the constitution literally for a situation exactly like this.
A lot of what is being done right now violates the Constituent. That doesn't matter unless someone enforces it, which is not happening. Congress should be responding, but the Republican majority are either in favor of the takeover or too afraid to oppose it. The courts have been helping some, but the Supreme Court (and many of the lower courts) have been taken over by people who support this.
Unless some congressional Republicans grow a conscience or a spine, there isn't anyone at the federal level who will defend the Constitution.
I think you missed which constitutional amendment they were referring to
My reps voicemails are completely full and they don’t reply to email. It’s a farce.
Send a letter, while the USPS is still around.
Send a postcard. A lot more letters just get tossed instead of opened because of security risks.
