      Yeah it’s weird, and if there are elections popular opposition candidates will face a fate like mr Navalny, I’m afraid. Much as I would like AOC as a US president, I think at this point, she needs to run for her life rather than for president. And believe me, I truly hate that this is the case.

      She is an amazing person and a fantastic leader. However she is the kind of person the fascists fear and she is also the right shade of skin to earn a one way ticket to El Salvador.

      You see the people clamoring for the deportation of mr Mamdani, and he is at this point nothing more than one party’s possible candidate for mayor of one town. Imagine what would happen if ms Ocasio-Cortez were an actual presidential candidate!?

      Even now I worry about her safety often. Same for that wonderful ms Crockett, mr Frost and a few others.

        Yes. Until americans realise it. They are still making stupid little jokes about the regine in talk shows, they are staying or talking about midterms or 2028. Absolutely naive.

        They need to fucking leave the country. If they cant afford to leave sell what you have, save until you can leave but leave.

        Or if you want to fight dont do cute peaceful no kings protests for a few days. Shut down the country, general strike. Use the amendment you always claim is there to prevent the situation you have now.

        Dont joke and laugh about jokes in SNL but wake up and either save your life and that of your family by leaving or fight.
