A Starter for Dismantling Democracy

1. Decide your country has made too many strides towards justice and equality and nurture your anger until you feel its flames licking under you, rousing you into action.
2. Look for someone to blame for your unfortunate circumstances.
3. Find someone who looks like you, screaming loudly things that make you feel validated, your righteousness justified.
4. Seek out only news sources that echo your own perspective.
5. Grow angrier by the day.
6. Listen to the ads on your favorite podcast, and when an ad for something other than knives and survival gear comes on, pay attention.
7. Go to that website and become ecstatic upon learning that they want to give you a $50,000 bonus to agree to do something you’re dying to do anyway.
8. Learn that you won’t need a background check and breathe a deep sigh of relief.
9. Immediately start researching guns, excited that you’ll finally be allowed to carry one.
10. Be glad for the chance to undo what your forefathers worked so hard to build and protect.
