You non-Americans may not realize the people who extol this also own the courts including the Supreme Court. It's easy to post "just do this."

You're absolutely right. And I don't see a way of, supposing you all crawl out of this hole, to not fall into it again, unless you do reform constitution and institutions. A lot of Dems will talk shit about "getting like it was before Trump". That's not enough.

They'll refuse to understand the glaring fact that "like it was before Trump" is the situation that gave rise to Trump.

Brazil had a coup that lasted for 21 years and was funded by USA govt. You do nothing because you don’t have any idea of whats wrong. you 🇺🇸 truly believe that your country is sharing democracy with the world… USA is in this shape for decades. you have to wake up.

We've lived in this illusion throughout our history. There have been good men and women with noble ideals and actions to support them, but the illusion has always been just that.

Many, many people want to, myself included; but it's easier said than done, even seeking asylum takes a long time.
