Its been a long time since crowds in the street could overthrow their government my friend.

The entire idea of turning people against eachother using social media is to have them fight eachother and waste their lives and energy doing that, while Trump just keep saying ragebait things inbetween golf rounds to keep you in the anger zone.

Nepal has averaged one government change a year ever since the King stepped down. They essentially did not have a government, they had people living in governor mansions and they dragged them out

All a lot of countries have are people living in governor mansions...
