They'll just shrug and move along like always happens when confronted by governmental perfidy. I'm not sure what the actual answer is, short of a lot of bloodshed, TBH. I'm an old man, and not prone to shedding my blood anytime soon.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Wasn't the minimum wage raise blocked by an unelected parliamentarian and filibustered by 41 Republican senators representing 21% of the country, and that Dems are now trying to end the filibuster?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Let's face it: If Biden was serious about unity, he’d visit Trump in Mar-a-Lago.

I don't get it, CNN and MSNBC regularly aired Trump/Task Force press conferences knowing they perpetuated lies and misinformation.
But they are not airing Jen Psaki's which are filled with facts and important information.

To think people like you are voting. They might as well be rigging the machines, because there is no effective difference between letting TV addled lemmings decide political outcomes & simply letting corporate America make up the vote counts.
' Biden bombing Syria? The government surveillance system that far outdoes anything they had even in prisons a hundred years ago? Assange thrown in prison for exposing the crimes of the Bush administration? Crazy talk, I have a ballgame to watch, leave me alone.'
You really are disgusting, you know that? But you will face the consequences. Even though the cultural degradation, corruption, murder and plutocracy doesn't phase you, unless you are terminally ill or very old, you will not escape rising wage inequality, you will not escape the decaying infrastructure, you will not escape paying for wars that have nothing to do with you, you will not escape the rising levels of crime. You may be too much a soulless automaton for even this to bother you, but you will at least loose some of your ill-deserved comfort & security.
