It’s not actually democracy if the civil rights and liberties of one party’s supporters are shamelessly trampled when the other party is in power and there is no accountability mechanism other than elections.

Both are BLACK independent journalists. Both covered the recent church protest in St Paul. Both were taken by federal agents. We cannot stand for this!
Yeah it’s not the exact scenario I was thinking about but it’s still quite brazen and not a good sign

25.01.2026 02:42 — 👍 10 🔁 1 💬 1 📌 0Maybe. Not everyone is prepared to protest in subzero weather like our friends in Minnesota but this really isn’t sustainable even with a population conditioned for compliance, most of whom would rather be watching Netflix. At some point the cognitive dissonance is too much.
25.01.2026 02:52 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Again maybe I’m naive but this all feels like a turning point. This can’t go on without triggering an unprecedented national mobilization that these homicidal clowns aren’t remotely prepared for.
