 Not idiocracy. By design. Every time i go to your country, i meet both the dumbest and most intelligent and learned of people. The sad thing is, as important as tge constitution is for humanity, i meet few who realise theres been no democratic representation in decades. I just cant quite pin down when the coup occurred. Probably 1913 with the FED. am curious whos in charge now though. I also think thats what this upheaval is about. A return to constitution and devolving power back to the states. Good luck fren, the world could do with you guys getting this right. Am just not sure voting will be enough 
 And also their foreign policy and military industrial complex is quickly reaching a point of no return. If Americans don't get their regime under control, the most powerful nations of the global south will instead.  
 I think a lot of those nations are captured too 
 Not Russia/China/Iran though 
 Everything on probability for me now. I’d say 90% probable not captured. Still have monetary control centralised and we know how obscure that is in the background. We just see how all this plays out. Main issue for humanity right now is the attack on USA constitution and we already see it’s a controlled tyranny whilst the vaunted second amendment hasn’t stopped that happening. Hopefully individual states keep pushing through more local legislation to fight back. When that comes to a head, anyone’s guess but shit might get real pretty damn quick.
