      We might be headed toward the same conditions that spawned the French revolution. I’m not in favor of that but once the wealth transfer gets to a certain point there’s historical president to draw upon.

        That isn’t going to happen. And in the very off chance that it does- the government is guaranteed the win, and the people will suffer.

        Greatly.

          The government is made of people. Those people might refuse to do their jobs too.

          A protest is SUBSTANTIALLY more likely to happen than the original suggestion of charging state lawmakers with murder. There’s no murder charge that would qualify.

            Riiiiight. Well, have fun storming the castle. Just don’t make a mess on my street, okay? I don’t want to have to clean that shit up.

                And there it is! Internet activists calling people they know nothing about “cowards”. Typical lemmy rhetoric.

                You’re going to have to forgive me if I walk away from this conversation having felt a touch of second-hand embarrassment for you. That’s just me being me.

                I’m just empathic that way.
