I wouldn’t necessarily have issues with tax cuts to the low and middle class, assuming we tax the shit out of mega businesses and the upper class

I’m making a general observation, directed to no one and everyone in the USA at the same time, including myself, that the concept of collective guilt does apply to aggressor countries.

There is always something that was not done. Even if the lack of action for the individual was trivial, minor, laughable even. If the reader thinks they are exempt, I invite them to read more history.

My particular crime was staying silent about votes not being accurately counted in my state (Texas).

My background as a computer programmer, who contributed to large systems similar to the software used, rang alarm bells inside me for years.
Particularly after exit polls were diverging worse from the norm. And I had questions and insights that were helpful.

But I understood the issue as an impossible conversation to have except among friends and fellow believers, so I simply stopped participating in the Democratic Party because of it 10 years ago, well before it became unfashionable to critique the voting systems.

I had little influence, so anything I could have said would have little, if any, impact. But when one thinks how many other people who have a background in large systems also were silent … one gets the picture, I hope.

Exactly. I’m happy to fight to get this country back, even if I have to leave it first. I’m on the side of the world here, and will never accept any blame for the Nazis who are in charge or who support him.

It’s a pendulum swing for a lot of nations. I see authoritarian conservative parties are winning elections across the globe. May be it takes a major event to turn the tide.

it would take more than a few terms of them electing normal people.

Who qualifies as Normal People in modern politics?
