    How many countries have pulled it off? It’s laughable to think it is impossible here. Everything I’ve suggested has already been implemented elsewhere. It’s pretty logical to assume it can happen here too.

      I assume you’ve pivoted now to universal healthcare…but I’m not sure. No one said it’s impossible, for that matter, no one said gun control is impossible. Just that it won’t pass a Republican controlled legislative body, and I assume it would be struck down by the Supreme Court…same as gun control. Change both of those (Congress & Court) and you’ve got a chance.

        The point is that opposition to both is not some permanent feature of the US government. Nor will the SCOTUS always be far right.

          You could save so much time if you just turned your account into a bot that replied as follows:

          Eventually! Eventually! Eventually!

            There comes a point when you become just a white nationalism apologist. As such, you can go fuck yourself.
