American Democracy Will Die in 150 Days

It’s Time to Think the Unthinkable. America is Having an Authoritarian Collapse.

 

stark assessment or accurate? somewhere in the middle perhaps?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The military is allowed to disobey direct orders. The military is briefly mentioned but it seems to show an opinion rather than give citations for a credible argument.

The day police bombed a city street: can scars of 1985 Move atrocity be healed? (The Guardian)

I remember reading about this years ago, even back then I was completely flabbergasted that the police - any police - would actually kill civilians by bombing them.

Quote

After the bomb struck, a fire took hold and began to spread. The police commissioner, Gregore Sambor, critically and fatally decided “to let the fire burn”.

By the following morning 61 homes had been razed to ashes, leaving 250 Philadelphians destitute and homeless.

Only two of the 13 residents of the Move house got out alive.

The remaining 11, including five children aged seven to 13, were similarly reduced to ashes.
