It might not be an actual nuclear war - at least not yet, but the level of destruction may be similar on many levels.

That may be because at this point it is a fascist state. Time for everyone in government with any shred of humanity, courage or responsibility to act in concert NOW.
Use whatever levers of power you have or step aside for those who will. This means red, blue and purple.
This is on YOU.

They hurt you at home, and they hit you at school
They hate you if you're clever, and they despise a fool
Till you're so fucking crazy, you can't follow their rules

I know a lot of us tend to want to automatically put our military and police on pedestal (ty for your service, etc.). Fact is that they are a mixed group like the rest of us.
If they are allowed to do this while in uniform, shame on the command above.

Looks like LAPD has clearly chosen 'which people' they are willing to serve and protect.
Making a good case for defunding of tax dollars. Let the oligarchs and corporations directly underwrite their 'private' police state.

From the early years of christianity through today, it has become synonymous with hate and intolerance.
They say power corrupts but I feel it may be more a case of the easily corruptible are drawn to any tool of power they can use to their advantage.

Amazingly we are still haring about the law, yes that law that only one side acknowledges.
If one side insists on playing by the rules, that side has effectively painted itself into a corner.

People,
The war was declared on us Election Day. It has been escalated ever since.
If actually sending in armed troops doesn't convince you, nothing will.

Seems most people don't grasp that they have declared actual war on all of us...including the MAGA mob.
Once we have all 'woke' to it, let's see if the masses care to defend themselves and their children.

Of course, it would need to be passed by....
the same people who have been taking the dark money all along.
A key fatal flaw in our political system, where representatives represent their own financial interests above anything else.
