(32,139 posts)That should be everyone's response. And we should be in the fucking streets about it.
No, this isn't acceptable. The fact that we are sitting here arguing about whether the President should have the right to murder Americans in our own country without due process is fucking obscene. It is something out of a dystopian novel.
It is beyond putrid and disgusting and offensive that the apologism for this shit even stands at what is supposed to be a democratic website.
This is what this country has become, when corporations own our government and our media and have their ugly, slimy tentacles of propaganda everywhere around us, down to discussion boards on the internet. Portraying any of this as even remotely constitutional, and pretending that reasonable people can have reasonable arguments about whether the President should have the right to murder any of us is pure fascist propaganda, and it should have no place whatsoever on DU.
What utter, steaming, reeking indefensible BULLSHIT.
