Donald Trump's demand for billions of gallons (liters) of water to be released in California, in what he said was a move to help combat fires in Los Angeles, was wasteful and pointless, experts say.

It is an America problem. The insurrectionists are, whether we like it or not, US American citizens. The issue has been the decades long systematic reeducation ("un"-education is apropos) of the public-school system. Educated people don't participate in wanton destruction. That huge demographic of stupid people grew up and voted and now here we are.

I don't dispute that the political climate is universally American, I'm just saying that not all Americans are "fat and apathetic" some are taking political action. They're not waiting for a chance to vote for their least hated candidate then shrugging and going back to their quiet lives when that candidate loses. They're fighting hard for that they believe in.

A fascist revolution is being carried out by motivated fascists.

Where is the left?
