If you’re one of the people who had their voter registration suspended, there’s still time to fix it.

Voters have until October 5 to update their registrations and can check their status on the Texas secretary of state’s website, at a county election office, or by mail. But with a number as high as 1.2 million people, the message may not reach many voters in time—especially if they haven’t moved and it’s the fault of a clerical error.

    This is the time to step up Americans. You are supposedly the greatest country and democracy on earth. Land of the free and home of the brave. Time to show the world what the fuck you people are made off. Are you a bunch of fucking cowards that will let this sack of shit steal your freedom from you or are going to step up and take back what’s rightfully yours?

      I live 3300 km away from Texas. That’s almost half again as far as Kyiv is from Paris. It’s not trivial to just pop down there for a march some weekend.

          They’re rigging them, but they’ve been doing that for my entire lifetime. For decades Republicans wouldn’t have been able to win a majority or presidency in a fair election, but our opposition party refuses to move or step down. They’re captured by Capital interests too.

          What exactly would you have us do? Our empire is at the last phase of it’s life cycle… It’s collapsing.

          There’s no saving it. We’re way past the tipping point… If we want democracy we will have to rebuild it, and we’re in for a period of suffering before that can manifest

          Until then, the best we can do is try to hold things together and keep people alive.

          And hopefully avoid a last ditch major war… That’s a common final nail in the coffin

              No, I’m building connections in the community so that when hard times come, we can come together

              There’s no saving our country, but life is going to go on when the day arrives that no one comes to fix the bridges that fall. We will still be here
