WE USED TO BE THE ENVY OF THE WORLD… now we are pitied.

We are no longer the “shining city on the hill”, if we ever were.

We are witnessing, just how easy it is to dismantle our democracy.

I think democracy is more fragile than we believed, but it’s not impossible to protect. Complacency and division make it vulnerable, yet history shows resilience. If people stay engaged and defend democratic values, it can withstand even the greatest challenges.

We never were. It was all a show, while behind the scenes the country was doing both great and awful things. But while I think it’s time for the US to get down off its fake pedestal, the way it’s happening is terrible. We deserve to be pitied

yes to all that. When people are too lazy to vote, get their info from memes and corrupt media outlets, take their country for granted because “Trump is great”, this is what happens. The abyss beckons…

We never were the shining city, ever.

Amurika has always been a greedy country that could be bought.

2. It began in 2016, and in less than 10 years, the “money men” have orchestrated what so far amounts to a bloodless coup…So far.

And it’s not just the GOP facilitating the takeover. They are being abetted by members of the Democratic Party.

PAY ATTENTION!

Or we could lose it all.

🤗 It's truly heartbreaking 💔
🤔 of those who sacrifice daily for all of US Whether in our military, law enforcement, public ed, those in public parks & municipalities, civil servants, etc

If the G-rifting O-ligarchy of P-redators knew it would be so easy
I'm sure they would have done this sooner 😥
