But if you only got your news from Reddit, you’d think the people are preparing to overthrow the government and establish a new liberal country.

There were protests where people were singing the national anthem too, but it seems like western libs are the only people who can protest the government without wanting to topple it

    Police departments got more funding to balance all the defunding that (never) happened

      IIRC one city actually did vote to defund the police, but then the city council had elections and all the defund people got kicked out and the new council reverted the plans. Democracy!
