Call for the assassination of a political figure once, you have my pity - you're smarter than that. Do it twice in as many days, and you get unfriended. I should call 'em out, but f--k it, it's like talking to a wall. I don't care how repugnant you find the incoming administration to be ideologically. Going down that road makes it OK for the other side to do it to you, you know (also, who do you think has been buying a record number of firearms and ammunition? Hint: they don't read Salon) That kind of shit is what gets reality TV stars elected, or, *shudder* civil war.
Also, if you think you understand what civil war would entail, and
think it's the answer to your problems, you have no comprehension of
history, or how brutally savage modern Homo Sapiens can be.
Don't believe me? Check out the events of late 1st Century BCE Rome, as a primary example. Russia in the nineteen teens, Spain in the 30's, Cambodia in the 60's and 70's, Rwanda in the 90's, or Syria RIGHT NOW - THIS VERY MOMENT (Peace Prize in action) might also be illuminating.
Either work within the system, and persuade your fellow Americans in the arena of ideas. Other wise, it's time to catch up with the people you can't possibly deal with. They bought more firearms than needed to equip the United States Marine Corps LAST MONTH.
We're playing with fire. Prayers for love and cooler heads.
