China can eat a giant bag of dicks. Yes, the USA is rotten to the core and likely had a hand in funding the Wuhan lab that leaked the virus that is now wreaking havoc on the world, but at least they pay lip service to certain principles unless your name is Julian Assange. I'd prefer tyranny that at least has the decency to be covert.

"I'd prefer tyranny that at least has the decency to be covert."

Fuck that. If you are going to try to rob and rape my family, be open about it. Be as open about it as possible.

Tyranny of any kind should not be suffered by human beings.

Well yes, obviously. But what are you, or what is anyone going to do about it?

Broken system run by the elites, for the elites.

Don't be a defeatist.

Ah yes, typical pathetic American, would rather live in the illusion of having your problems solved than reality, then you wonder why you're losing. American conservatives are especially pathetic and live under the delusion that having a piece of paper that says you have rights is more important than the people and systems that are responsible for enforcing the laws. I'll enjoy watching your kind getting annihilated over the next decade.

Laws are ideally a reflection of the morals and the culture of a people. The Constitution was never a perfect document but it was a good document and it was a reflection the people of America for along time. America isnt run by Americans anymore. The constitution does not reflect the values of the people that control america. Its just an inconvenience that they can subvert with legal loopholes.
