    Your government is destroying all of the institutions necessary for it to function. So America will not be capable of functioning as a nation the way it was when the institutions worked as designed.

    The damage being done to America isn’t superficial, it’s as structural as it gets. The structure of America is about the division of power and it’s safeguarding, changing that means changing how power is divided and what is safeguarded. Consolidation of power under the executive is absolute opposite of the constitutions intent. Everything will change if they succeed, and they have done so enough that some things already have. Americans will wake up one day in a nation they no longer recognize and do not know how to safely navigate. God help you against those who do.

      Totally agree and things are already really bad here but the average US citizen doesn’t know it it yet - https://piefed.social/comment/11954439

      My priority is getting my partner out of this mess before they get permanently deployed to one of the three country killing disasters on the horizon.

      Not related or that important; I’ve been making a concerted effort to not refer to the USA as America and saying US citizens as Americans. The situation in North America kinda feels like this https://imgur.com/a/w2GWXoZ with the question being who is the survivor: Mexico or Canada?
