Calling out does nothing. Everyone is aware of the issues.

The problem is nobody is willing to use their constitutional right to fight for justice, because everyone is deathly afraid of losing even a little bit of their comfortable life.

If people were more willing to use the rights given to them by a specific amendment, none of this would happen.

A lot of people are doing that. Every protester against ICE is doing exactly what you described. Some have been murdered for it.

If we need to fall back on that one it's going to suck. It isn't going to be glorious or something to celebrate being a part of - it's going to absolutely suck to live through and where we end up at the far end is very much up to chance @see myanmar.

>that one it's going to suck.

Absolutely, but you can't make someone believe that things like trans athletes, DEI, multi race populations, and whatever else are all extremely minor things compared to how good your life is, until that good life goes away. Its exactly the same thing as with all the anti vaxxers who were dying on respirators saying that they were wrong and begging people to take the vaccine. Everyone needs a reality check.

And on the other side of the isle, people need to realize that is not just political opinions, some people are truly just evil.
