Like what? People on the far right like myself hate government, we support any restrictions on the state.
Laughably untrue.

Donald Trump didn't commit the worst US civil rights violation of the 20th century by putting 120,000 innocent people in concentration camps via executive order. That crime was committed by progressive hero FDR.
And you're worried about the stupid post office.
People tend to say they don't want "tyranny of the majority". That they respect democracy and individual rights and limits on the majority's power over the minority. They're often not telling the truth.
To do that, people need to oppose their OWN side when it's in power and oversteps. When trump sabotages the Post Office trying to steal an election, HIS supporters should put country over party or cult leader, and stand up for fair elections and against abuse of power and the rights of their fellow citizens who vote differently.
There's an old saying, "I strongly disagree with what you say, but I will defend to the death the right to say it."
Republicans have largely updated that to, "I strongly disagree with what you say, and I'd strongly support trump if he shot you on Fifth Avenue for saying it."
I haven't seen ONE trump supporter condemn his attempt to steal the election by sabotaging the post office or other methods. That is why they are called un-American, traitorous, anti-democracy, dangerous, immoral, etc. It's simply describing them, and their not liking it doesn't make it less accurate. They need to put up or shut up on defending the American system.

What about the tyranny of the minority? That is clearly what we have at present.
Where was the last mass gun confiscation in violation of the 2nd amendment?

“Today’s less serious nation is unable to… even reliably conduct elections. This is what national decline looks like.”
Will claims that the United States “is in a downward spiral” and faces “disdainful condescension” from the rest of the world.
Will asserts that one reason for this are the highly disparate COVID-19 pandemic results between America and much of the rest of the developed world: “Last Sunday, Germany (population 80.2 million) had 159 new cases of covid-19; Florida (population 21.5 million) had 15,300.”
Another example of the Union’s decline is that it is “unable to… even reliably run elections,” citing the Hoover Institution which finds that “there has been a rising tide of voter suppression in recent U.S. elections.”
Will posits that the decline has gotten so serious that “worse is helpful, and worse can be confidently expected.”
By this Will means that the more egregious Trump’s presidency becomes, the more apparent the need for voters to remove him from office will become.
As an example of the “worse” that Will affirms America is seeing, he next calls the Trump administration a “gangster regime.”
He claims that Roger Stone “adopted the argot of B-grade mobster movies when he said he would not ‘roll on’ Donald Trump.”
And Trump “show[ed] gratitude for Stone’s version of omertà (the Mafia code of silence)” by commuting his sentence.
You support a fascist.Donald Trump didn't commit the worst US civil rights violation of the 20th century by putting 120,000 innocent people in concentration camps via executive order. That crime was committed by progressive hero FDR.

You support a fascist.
How do you think that stripping kids away from their parents and locking them in cages when many of them will never see their parents again.
Trump wanted to round of other immigrants and people of other ethnicities and deport them but the SCOTUS prevented it.
Actor Riz Ahmed suggests Trump might round up Muslims for deportation – HotAir
Trump had federal troops kidnapping Americans off the street and hauling them away without charges and 5th amendment rights because they were protesters.
Do you ever get tired of typing such nonsense.You support a fascist.

He will cheat the election. We can expect Trump for life. It's a done deal. Schumer and Collins sternly written letters were all we had, and they'll fail. If only something could be done... *sigh*
Im serious though, that's the sad thing, I have zero hope of a fair election. Trump is dictator, and Barr and the entire GOP are staging a coup. Ameica is a done deal, over and finished....
He's literally emperor Plapatine now and will be till the day he dies.
In fact, I'd not be surprised if the Democratic party is outlawed by 2022.
That's why The United States isn't a democracy

Nice spin on the dem attempt to steal the election with voter fraud.
It doesn't have to be "mass gun confiscation" to be a violation of the 2nd amendment. Using your own "reasoning", if the cops aren't committing mass murder then they aren't violating anyone's civil rights.
I'd be more than happy to back down to my opposition to the Second Amendment if your side would back down their opposition to just about every other Amendment.
You'll only get democrats like Pelosi and jackasses Schiff and Nadler to agree to that saying is if Trump agrees to set up a trust for the Kennedy Center in the amount of $1 Trillion.
Pelosi's obsession with the Kennedy Center is ridiculous.
If the K Center can't afford to operate than close the damn place; file for bankruptcy, thus putting it out of its misery.
Only <0.0000001% of American taxpayers are able to go there anyway. No big loss.
Well, that's a pile of ignorance. The center is a national treasure for celebrating American art, and available to all Americans online. Supporting the arts is a good use of tax dollars.
But who exactly gets to enjoy it? Pelosi - period.
i support getting rid of the EC, but that isn't tyranny.
you won't see much condemnation of Tweety sabotaging the postal service or of any of the other dirty tricks by the right because a lot of of them support it, whether tacitly or otherwise.
i support getting rid of the EC
Especially after a Democrat loses?
Like what? People on the far right like myself hate government, we support any restrictions on the state.
And where's your proof?
