Is there any sort of cognitive dissonance happening on a national level around this? America and it's media have been touting the "land of the free", "home of democracy" slogans for decades, is there not an identity crisis happening amongst those who believe it? I understand the left vs right, democrat vs republican arguments most of the time but surely no matter which side you're on this must be a shock?

You see the Hands Off! protests that just happened?

It was literally a rebuke of the Trump administration, over 1,200+ protests across the country, it also sparked protests in France, Germany, and Britain.

The next one is on April 19th, Saturday and Sunday
