Isn't Americas 2nd amendment that the world constantly gets told about supposed to be for a situation exactly like this though?
I've been personally told and have read plenty of times by some really smug people that due to their 2nd amendment, freedom and their guns if there is ever a fascist tyrannical regime that comes to power in America then the people will instantly rise up and forcefully put a stop to it.
Are all the people who've spouted that crap specifically just the ones who voted for this regime? Or was it all just empty words trying to push some weird kind of superiority?
I feel for the innocent people who are going to be victimised in the US but if less than half the population voted for this shit then surely the rest should be putting a stop to it now it's clear what trump and musk are doing shouldn't they?
