First, the troops came to LA to attack and disappear the peaceful protesters. Then, the troops came to DC to attack and disappear the peaceful homeless. If America falls, it will be because of the people who weren’t paying attention — and didn’t take that damn poem seriously.

I live in Houston while Harris County is blue. I live in a very red college educated neighborhood. They do not care! Half watch fox news. All agree with him. Hate immigrants and homeless people. They believe it will never touch them. They vote against their best interests every single time.

If we treat this fascism as a mirror on a sausage that we didn't care was starting to be made out of not even ground dog meat but poo, then there is hope for us. Kennedy was right that we shouldn't (solely) ask what the country can do for us. For plutocrats will always win that bidding war.
