      no we won’t. we’re too tired and scared of losing healthcare when we get fired for rioting.

      what we will do is pray Iran uses one back. On mainland US soil. Heck, uses 50 of them back. We deserve, 100%, to get our teeth kicked in.

        I don’t know that I’ll ever wish for millions of civilians to die in a nuclear Holocaust.

                    How many hundreds of thousands of children do you want to burn alive to punish those you think have done wrong?

                    You’re hoping children die because you’re angry about politics.

                    Are you one of those “nobody is innocent” people? I guess it can be argued that everyone who uses animal products deserves to die and anyone who uses electronics made by slave labour and anyone who uses websites owned by billionaires

                    I suppose you think Iran is full of innocent people? You think there aren’t Iranians who fully support the oppression of women, LGBT people, and other minorities? There are people with harmful politics all over the world

        Iran doesn’t have any. That fact that this idea has been normalized is ridiculous.

      Riot now, what the fuck is the goddamn holdup!?

      You won’t riot, you’ll just move the goalposts to “if he invades Canada we’ll riot” or “if he puts minorities in camps we’ll riot” or “if he starts arresting political opponents we’ll riot” and then you still won’t when he does those things

      nah, you’ll see a couple protestors on your feed holding signs. feel glad that “at least somebody is doing something” and then continue to go into work, watch prime, netflix, game, etc. buy groceries. eat snacks. sleep in when you can. maybe write a few angry comments and share a few posts. but you value your life, and the lives of your friends and family.

      like everyone else. just waiting for “jesus to come back”.

      and thats basically it.
