Anyone who can read the above and interpret it as charitable to the administration cannot possibly be a serious person.

You asked a question and I told you the actual answer.

If you're presented with the option to resist and force their hand so you can try to challenge it legally, please do, I respect that idea. But not everyone is willing to make personal sacrifices like that. Of course, everyone should still make sure to vote.

But at the end of the day, we only have representation because of the implied threat of violence if we didn't. And it very much seems like that threat being implied is not effective in this administration.

I dont see this as us forcing their hand.

I see this as them forcing our hand. We have all the power and they have none.

The longer we wait to get involved to make the world a better place, the worse it will get, for you and the people you love.

There really isn't a choice any more.
