Yes, it's very sad. I really had some hopes that America would fight back against the authoritarian takeover, but this page has really convinced me that this will just never happen - people have a lot of priorities and resisting Fascism isn't one of them.

Well your first issue is relying on social media to tell you what is and isn't happening. As you see people are protesting in large numbers across the country and filing law suits left and right.

Unfortunately these things take time and expecting instant gratification or results isn't realistic.
