Just thinking today based on the recent news of well, the past 6-months, that we’re headed in a pretty dire direction. We’re not even one year into Trump and things have already accelerated to the point we are at today. The only silver lining I see here is that the usa has fucked off from abusing the global south and China has stepped in to steer the non-fascism aligned world in a good direction. Great, but I have a sinking feeling for the rest of us poor stuck in this shithole.
I’ve said repeatedly that I expect mass graves in the US before this is all over.
I assume that sounds like hyperbole, but I’m 100% serious.

Unbearably evil and diseased land
Mass graves are baked in to the fabric of America. It’s barely hyperbole to say mass graves are foundational to the US (and all settler states).

I mean, shit there were a bunch of bodies discovered buried in trash bags in a Texas cemetery
They only died coming here, definitely no other causes of death. And such respect shown.
Just nuke this shitheap already
Reminds me of when I was talking to someone that worked with forensic anthropologists out of Texas. They spent some time on a body farm out there and they were careful to explain that all the remains used were people that had consented before death (or had been donated by estranged family but they downplayed that).
The odd little exception was people who had died trying to cross the desert into the states. They were left in a fenced off area to decompose awaiting identification.
America Must Be Destroyed
There will probably be crisis at some point, hopefully the working class can coalesce around a vanguard and actually manage to kill the US before it kills all of us. Full support to PSL, FRSO, Chunka Luta, and all other orgs doing their best right now.
Already happened. In addition to what FALGSConaut said, there were mass graves being dug for covid victims during times of peak die-off rates:

“A Tenth of N.Y.C.'s Covid Dead May Be in Mass Graves on Hart Island” (Archive link)
Sorry for the lib sources, but even they recognize it. Well, they did back when they still believed covid was real.
I hear you though, it’s something that we’re likely to see a lot more of and for a variety of other and more heinous reasons.
Expected for a country built on Indian burial ground.
