Until we revolt.
To a manner that liberals are afraid.
Very afraid.
Period.

Forever! Have you not noticed the long long lines at testing centers by folks who have no symptom and should not even be tested? Because of this (done by fed and state governments) people who really need to be tested can not!

The US is now inhabited by loads and loads of idiots and illegals. The dim party has done a great job in watering down Americans. And the 2 noted will be the brown shirts to try and reign Americans into history.

You think that revolt would’ve already started when they came for our children but the silence speaks volumes. A reckoning? I sincerely hope but doubt.

Promise them money, promise them safety. Even if both are untrue, they’ll vote for that. As long as the media never questions, the questions don’t occur to the stupid public.

Sadly, I feel your assessment is correct. I drove past one of these pop-up testing stations last Friday and the line was just nuts. People standing outside in the cold. NONE of them looked sick, well, okay, maybe MENTALLY ILL. They were ALL on their phones just goofing off like at a big party. If what I saw in that line represented a demographic of America today, we are screwed!!

"The Year of Living Stupidly-How long will America continue witnessing our unalienable rights and political freedoms weakened?"

The facile answer is as long as Americans do not put an end to it.

But to your point, it won't stop until the perpetrators are in a state where they think twice, three times, or ten times before they pull their bulls**t.
It boils down to how committed they are, and how willing their victims are to end it.

This came to mind:

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future"

Revolt? Not a single shot was fired to stop the 2020 election fraud.

Until never ... far too many people, if asked, would draw blanks of such in-the-weeds questions like “unalienable rights” and “political freedoms”. Most are challenged to answer which state they live in or who Washington, DC was named after.

General rule: People tend to hope for the best no matter how far into ridiculous it goes. Only when something somewhere goes “too far” does the shite hit the fan. There is a difference between courage and outrage. Courage is uniformly rare but outrage can pop up out of nowhere.

Organize and muster up the troops with rifles in hand.
Yeah, it's going to be real bad or...we go on like this until we are mob marched to the edge of a mass grave...I guess that's not so bad S/.

Secure elections should be a number one priority.

Indefinitely. Politicians, CEO’s, The ‘elite’ are laughing at us. Why? Because at the end of the day all we will do is post comments and memes about their hypocrisy. Then we will pay our taxes and their salaries and shop at their companies. If a boycott gets enough steam they make it political. The left is hurting us (ala Walmart, numerous times) and the right shops there more, we cannot let The left win, oh heavens no. We do so smug and proud. Liberals do the same. We are ridiculous to them.

Being asked to show anything by the police when they can’t articulate a crime is simply a violation of the 4th Amendment.

We did not authorize them to suspend it because ‘virus’.

Yeah, like that will ever happen. Conservatives are angry bloggers, but way short on action.

For as long as we keep re-electing Assistant Democrats.

When it does happen it will be relentless and what needed to be addressed will be finalized

The left's increasing warnings about the "threat to our democracy" posed by conservatives march alongside the left's ongoing attacks on our basic freedoms and Constitutional guarantees: free speech, freedom of assembly, freedom of religion, the equal protection of the laws, separation of powers, fair and open elections, and the right to bear arms.

This is no mere coincidence, but rather a strategy. By piling outrage upon outrage, they are trying to raise the anger and stress until someone snaps. Then, they will claim they were right all along. That smelly old stick-man, the walking cadaver known as Merrick Garland, knows exactly what he and his goons are planning.

Very few of my contemporaries (millennials) know what their rights are or how those rights are derived. They couldn’t tell you the distinctions among rights, privileges, government entitlements and dumb luck. Many can’t even make change, write cursive, or tell the time on a clock face.

They went to the kind of school that doesn’t teach such things.
