Have you ever been hungry? Did you enjoy it? Now imagine that you are so hungry that your organs are shutting down. Oh, and you are two years old.

This is happening right now in Myanmar because of Trump's/Elon's cuts to USAID.

Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has repeatedly said “no one has died" because of his government’s decision to gut its foreign aid program.

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

This is fascism in a nutshell. Right here. "A counter-revolution against a revolution that never occurred."

We have become something we thought was unimaginable 8 years ago. There's a wrongheaded cynical take that says we were always like this, but nope. We really weren't like this. And we don't have to stay like this.

Do you ever wonder why you were born at just the right time in history that you would see the America you love hobbled by a coalition of nihilists and authoritarians intent on the violent overthrow of Democracy?

It's so you can stop them.
