A More Perfect Union

Tear gas and armor,
screams of horror,
blood in the streets,
most cowardice feats,
angry, masked men,
authoritarian... 

We rise up, resist,
their lies, we untwist.
With signs and phones,
and love in our bones,
no one's illegal:
We the People

"I'm not mad at you, dude."

"They're lying. We saw it. And that's how brazen they lie when they know we've seen the truth. That's how they lie when they know we know. Imagine how they lie when there's no evidence to contradict them? And maybe that more than anything explains why Alex Pretti really was a threat. Because he was brandishing a weapon: a handheld, aluminum, 1080p, 60fps weapon of mass illumination. Because there is nothing more dangerous to a regime predicated on lies than witnesses who capture the truth." - Jon Stewart, The Daily Show [Monday, January 26, 2026].
