Even if Biden went 100% coup mode we all know that these internet warriors would have never answered the call to support Biden.
They are here to troll and complain and not get anything done. These fuckers are the ones who threw Biden out of the campaign and forced a new candidate.
This. They'd apparently rather watch their own country burn than get off their asses to vote. Now somehow they blame the politicians for forcing their (non) vote. Like, own your life choices guys.
Doesn't matter what the average civillian did, civillians don't have tanks. They rolls the tanks down the highway and I bet 99% of people will surrender.
How many Tanks were used to get Trump back into office?
Zero, because no one resisted, millions didn't even bother voting.
But my point is even if they did something, it no match for the military.
How many Tanks were used to shut down January 6th?
Is that how we support democracy?
Its the paradox of democracy (a version of the paradox of tolerance)
Is it more democratic to end democracy via people voting for a tyrant or protect democracy by violating the democratic will of the people.
