          Freedom of the press

          Freedom of speech

          Right to peaceful assembly

              Not to mention clean water act and food safety, assuming they live in the US.

                Ha. To be fair, I initially thought you were a turd… only to read further on down.

                Its a good question, really. Sans protests that feel like marginal change. Voting and/or demonetizing places/people that that support the American lunatics, has been my go to.

                  So the only thing you’re doing - from your original comment - is crying about it?

                  Id rather have potential head injuries than have my freedom threatened and the only thing you can do is cry about it

                  The ones you implied in your original comment that made you sound like a 2nd amendment nut from the US.

          If you’re in the US, you are. Your democracy has been attacked, is being attacked. Freedom of speech is under attack, the government is implimenting mass surveillance programs and where they aren’t they’re purchasing data from commercial mass surveillance programs. Trump just cleared out the commissioners of election watchdog so there are none. The list goes on and on and on.

              It’s still pretty nice here in EU. Our right wingers and other regressives are hurting our region much slower. Our left is strong and fighting back.

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.
