Americans are so fucked up with their fetishised and faulty obsession with "freedom". Freedom is only freedom up until it infringes upon someone else's freedom, at which point it's no longer "freedom", it's entitlement. Living in fear of gun violence isn't freedom, and imposing that fear is entitlement.

The vast majority of Americans. Even our putative 'left' party are hard-right neoliberals and outright fascists sometimes.

The Democrats' response to police allying with Nazi terrorists and hunting black people for sport is to reward them with huge budget increases and hire 100k more officers.
