As the situation in regard to report immigrants escalated, and the army may be used against Americans, do you believe there's a way back, or is this a one way street to civil war?

I'm wondering what would or will happen when the Newson, Sanders, AOC, etc start to make messages intended directly for members of the armed forces, saying "this gov is no longer legitimate as it has broken it's oath to the Constitution. You shall not obey unconstitutional orders"... Particularly if and when some generals follow suit...

Dangerous, but not more so than this fascist government...

I got a Citizen alert that two Democratic lawmakers were shot by a guy posing as ICE this morning so that's fun

Do you live near where that happened, or in another state? I had to uninstall Citizen because it felt like it was just pushing fear stories directly to my brain, and kept wanting me to pay them for more of that, and a private 911 service? No thanks

I'm not even in the same country anymore lmfao

But iirc you have to pay for Citizen if you want to change your location. Tbh I've been close to uninstalling it because the app has gone to shit. I also don't feel like reading a torrent of slurs in the comments.
