Nothing is going to fix the US bud. Nothing short of civil war. Everyone's just waiting for pressure to ramp up to "watering the tree of liberty" levels.

    DNC Policy Platform looks pretty good, tbh. Money out of politics, reform the court, term limits, tax the rich, restrict data collection, restrict foreign ownership of land and industry.

    What's a US Civil War II going to do for us aside from helping China conquer Taiwan and Russia conquer Ukraine?

    The Biden admin wasn't good enough, it lost the DNC the election to Trump, but they allowed aid into Gaza, withheld multiple weapon shipments over disagreements of how they would be used, and according to leaks from white house staff Joe Biden on several occasions swore expletives at Netanyahu over the phone. They wanted ceasefire but only with the terms of hostage release which China vetoed in the UN. Plus, more and more DNC are abstaining from any AIPAC support and the younger new DNC candidates often include devout critics of Israel.

    People calling for violence concern me, especially because we know that the current state of US internal politics has been heavily influenced by foreign interests to amplify and escalate the division and animosity. Violence serves their interests.

    The violence is already here. What you are labeling "calling for violence" are simply calls to respond to violence.

    What we need is a general strike, but I'm not going to point at people responding to being attacked and call them sus. You want to point fingers at foreign influence, the Whitehouse is easy to find.
