Chronicling a body of evidence demonstrating that the U.S. government is horrifyingly tyrannical at almost every level, and authoritarianism, cronyism and corruption have poisoned almost every aspect of American life. We show the very real need for Americans to follow through on the Founding Fathers' instructions to overthrow their government and the evil corporations that control it.

If you find a news article or dumb corporate bigot on Twitter that has said or done something so egregious that it made you wonder why Americans don't band together and do something about those motherfuckers, it belongs here.

Blood sugar was low. Got bananas. Ate one. Told the clerk

She then accused him of stealing (?!) and said racist shit. Daughter intervened bringing a baseball bat, saying she feared for her dad's life. Lots of cops showed up, put this old man in this condition. She was taken away hearing him sob and say, "I can't breathe" or something along those lines.

Fuck the piece of shit racist clerk and fuck the piece of shit pigs. This whole situation is fucking sickening.

She should have brought an AR-15 and possibly the whole neighborhood instead of just herself with a bat.

How long are we going to tolerate that kind of behavior, I wonder. 🤔

In Les Miserables, the protagonist was imprisoned under the grotesquely unjust French laws of the time for stealing a loaf of bread.

In the US there wouldn't have been a story because they would've just shot him.
