          Tell me how much you love corporate America. Tell me how awesome trump is. Tell me how important it is that the plebs obey the laws of the land while the ruling class rape and pillage.

          The twisted logic is that we have allowed it to get to this point. They all need to be deposed

              Yeah I think the people who actively sacrifice lives for a dollar deserve what they get, and until our government actually protects us from these vultures, we have no other option than to protect ourselves.

                That’s why you justify shooting them in the back? I guess you’re the same as Trump, you don’t believe in laws.

                  There are no laws for them. It has been made abundantly clear, time and time again, that the rich and powerful do not need to follow the same laws that us plebs need to. There is no court that will prosecute their crimes, no politician that will fight to defend us from them. The only option left is violence.

                    The calculas is fairly easy. Either mind the law or go to jail, which is full of people who believe their only option is violence.

                  I don’t believe the ruling class is exempt from responsibility. If our government is paving the road for them then we cannot trust the government to hold them accountable.

                  So yes. It’s justified, it’s right, it’s a good start, and I will applaud anyone who focuses on specific individuals making money on the lives of the people.

          Justice would be universal healthcare (including mental, dental, and vision care, whole body care) and abolishment of the private health insurance industry. The DoJ is only there to protect the oligarchy. It’s not on our side.

            Well sure, that was an important argument years ago when the ACA was being written. I hope you wrote your representatives then, because instead of electing progressive members who could evolve the ACA to your wishes, a regressive majority was elected to make it worse. Elections have consequences. The DOJ only enforces laws that have been written. Again, elections have consequences.

          You give people no shot at a decent life, you get vigilante justice. It sure as shit would be better if we had some semblance of societal justice, imposed by courts and authorities without regard for the criminal’s stature. But we don’t. What we have is a felon president (and we all saw the boxes of classified docs by the shitter at his gaudy estate) and the Sacklers and the gun manufacturers etc. etc. And, of course, the insurance profiteers, who have murdered countless victims for fucking nothing more than a dolla dolla bill. So, seriously, what the FUCK else could you expect. In the words of a hero:

          These companies don’t care about you, or your kids, or your grandkids. They have zero qualms about burning down the planet for a buck, so why should we have any qualms about burning them down to survive?

              FOUNDED

              And look where we are. Look around. It’s because we don’t fight that we are subjugated. Fucking wake up.

              I accept it. Most of the people here accept it. The government obviously won’t accept it. You’re just scared the libtards are finally taking action. Hate to tell ya bro, killing abusive rulers is a bipartisan thing. The civil war you pine for is looking more like the rich vs the poor.
