It kept spinning while millions were murdered during WWII as well. Did you have an actual point to make or did you just come here to be dismissive?

Yes, and has continued to spin over millions of years as various atrocities have occurred. The question for everyone: what are you going to do about it?
I won't be dismissing it with a trite line like "the world keeps spinning", for a start. Secondly, I am politically active and engaged, which is the most effective way to effect change right now.

Encouraging others to actually engage with politics instead of being dismissive, with the goal to build a coalition of people who want to protect our rights against this consolidating dictatorship.

You want to do something about it? Call your senator and voice your opinion.

Your senators and congress critters suck? Find a local challenger and work to build pressure against your sitting reps.

You think nothing can be done? Get out of the way.

Hey, more power to you! Fight for the change you want to see. I would like all people, of all political persuasions, to fight for the change they want to see.
