There is no one more unpatriotic and un-American than a Republican.
Vote 💙 like your very right to vote, and our democratic republic depends on it. Because it literally does.
If the Republican party were to ever achieve their goal of turning America into an authoritarianDystopia, the very first thing they're going to do, is take away your right to bear arms. They won't have any other choice. Just look at every other AuthoritarianRegimes throughout history. They didn't allow their people to haveGuns. Because that would be an existential threat to their power over you. Just look atChina, NorthKorea, theSovietUnion, and evenRussia today. Your right to vote and your right to free speech will be the next thing they take. And don't make the mistake of thinking that you'll be spared simply because you vote republican.
I'm sure this is something that supporters of the attempted coup have never considered or even contemplated.
“The actions of government, we are told, bear down only on imprudent souls who provoke them. The man who resigns himself and keeps silent is always safe. Reassured by this worthless and specious argument, we do not protest against the oppressors. Instead we find fault with the victims. Nobody knows how to be brave even prudentially. Everyone stays silent, keeping his head low in the self-deceiving hope of disarming the powers that be with his silence. People give despotism free access, flattering themselves that they will be treated with consideration. Eyes to the ground, each person walks in silence along the narrow path, leading him safely to the tomb.”
― Benjamin Constant, Principles of Politics Applicable to All Governments.
