For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction —
the reaction to tyranny is ALWAYS the same
People wake up, people push back, people refuse the leash.
Call it fascism, corruption, or the petty cruelty of small men with big egos, it ALWAYS ends the same
FREE PEOPLE WILL NEVER BE SLAVES.

A Short Story
She stared at the package, her hands trembling slightly as she cut the tape, which sealed the box containing her prize. "it's here! It's here! It's HERE!" kept running through her mind. She could feel the itch, the warmth spread as desire grew.

"In America, we say
YOU’RE boss of your life
To hide the truth, control the news
Good leaders follow rules; bad ones attack them
Freedom comes by keeping politicians leashed
If media agrees, they’re selling
Leaders seek truth, not lies
Dictators attack their people
Only YOU should decide your life"

I have THE WAY to STOP drivel from TrumpWorld.
Two words - PROVE IT.
They lie.
Say PROVE IT and they're on defense.
Taking the bait to defend the truth, which is what they want, lets the lie grow and they move on to dirtier deeds and lies.
When they speak bullshit,
either PROVE IT or it's a LIE

The Solution
Some say a comet [FELON] will fall from the sky
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves
Followed by fault lines that cannot sit still
Followed by [MAGA] MILLIONS OF DUMFOUNDED DIPSHITS
And some say the end is near
Some say we'll see Armageddon soon
I certainly hope we will

While WE march, carrying the flag of freedom, Money Men slice off stars to sell, and their Courtiers—who pretend to stand with us—hold the ladder for the thieves.
They aren’t opposition, they’re camouflage.
Until we cast them out, nothing we fight for will survive.
We RISE from the ashes

We see you.
You lack awareness which curses and weakens us.
You believe in "working with others", you WON'T change.
But now, you work with fascists and worse.
You're out of step and need to step away
We need a LEADER with VISION and COURAGE.
Who doesn't run at the first sign of victory.
