FAQ

Q: why not organize and stop treating the bus as a legitimate entity? why aren’t you working to stop the bus?

A: do both. cut the fuel line. break windows. put oatmeal in the gas tank. but maybe your efforts don’t succeed this election cycle. and if so don’t fucking throw away your vote if it can help your neighbors fucking survive. “harm reduction” is not a political strategy for action. it is a last minute, end of the line decision to save lives, after all other resources have been exhausted.

Blah blah blah, more "go and hate ur country the way Vlad wants. All the big countries are the same, clearly USA = China."

People in functional countries don't love their country. Only dictatorships do that, like Russia, China, and the US. People in normal countries acknowledge the problems and work to solve them, because there are actually solutions. If it is impossible to solve things in your country, why would you not hate your government?

Saying that anyone who points out flaws is an enemy agent is something cults and dictatorships do. It's how Xi and Putin maintain control, it's how Trump maintains control of his people, and it's how America has worked for generations. You are responding like someone who is in a cult.

I called u an enemy of the country not for pointing out flaws, but disparaging those calling for all avenues of action to be takrn. The countries u reference are hostile to the states, dump is an agent of one of those countries, im done making the point to u that keeping a hostile foreign entity out of the executive seat of power here is a cause for good, u menstrual fucking clot.
