      The United States is defined by its laws; if Americans don’t like the result, change the laws. If the currently elected lawmakers won’t do that, change the lawmakers. If they refuse to be changed, forcibly (but as peacefully as possible) remove everyone complicit from the equation. Even if that involves dumping NFTs in Boston Harbor.

        It’s a nation of laws and if that fails we need to break the law? I can’t say I disagree on the latter but that seems to negate the former.

      People who don’t vote don’t matter. Sorry not Coting was a vote for Trump.
