There are 2 types of people

1. People who get sad at this story, do nothing, and then speak about how worse is sure to happen while offering no #resistance

2. People who get mad at this story, show up, agitate, make their voices heard. And punish those responsible with a #vote. And demand their new reps put in safeguards

Be the second kind of person

#Cynicism is acceptance of #fascism
