    I believe we are witnessing a fascist takeover and it doesn’t matter who gets elected now.

        From the comments:

        Here’s why he’s saying that: the vast majority of US policymakers take money from AIPAC (Biden himself took $11.2M), and these protests scare them because it means that something may change soon and the gravy train may stop. They’re just lashing out because their survival is at stake here. I really hope that a possible outcome from all this is AIPAC AND anyone taking their money is forced to register as foreign agents because that’s EXACTLY what they are: agents working to further the interests of a foreign nation whose national security interests apparently come before ours, hence why we give them money that we don’t have, since we are running a deficit, and our national debt is in the tens of trillions.
