Americans really have been weighing their options between "being annoyed at times" and "the government's ability to gun down civilians in the street without recourse" for decades and being unable to decide.

I'm glad my feed in the last year has been more and more Americans having introspection that basically amounts to
a man in a military uniform says are we the baddies
Alt: a man in a military uniform says are we the baddies. This is from the Mitchell and Webb skit of them playing German Nazi soldiers fighting Russians in World War II and realizing they are the bad guys by the increasingly obvious signs around them (their uniforms, their insignias, their actions, etc)

Also I literally took this image from the Museum of American History.

I was a kid at the time (elementary), but even we called 3.5" floppy disks because that's what our teacher and parents and older siblings called them.

The 5.5" and above? Also called floppy disks by everyone else, but we kids called them "REALLY Floppy Disks"

I'm watching a stream of a panel where everyone pretends they are in the audience of an E3 2010 press conference.

This picture is inaccurate because they always, always, always have the least warm coloured white light possible. Actively suck any and all warmth out of room when turned on.

They won't have the numbers to occupy the nation and force everyone to comply, and that's why they're engaged in such an aggressive show of force. They're hoping we all get cowed into submission and do their work of suppression ourselves.

Once again, no.

The mantra remains "fuck you, make me."

Trump has effectively tried to end run this old problem with a massive surge in ICE agents, but I don't think they're going to get remotely near their goal.

They'll have the help of local cops in some cities, but again, that can only go so far.

Yes, the US government has an infinitely-funded state-of-the-art military that could wage multiple wars around the world.

BUT!

In domestic settings, the law limits where and when that can be deployed and, more important, the inevitable political blowback has led leaders to use it even less often
