“This is B.S.—you were doing this as a dilatory tactic to help your political friend,” says Rachel Maddow on the Supreme Court agreeing to hear the Trump immunity argument, delaying his coup trial. “And for you to say that this is something that the Court needs to decide because it’s something that’s unclear in the law is just flagrant, flagrant bullpucky.”
the right has been licking their lips for a purge for a long time. Imo a general strike is a better response. Shut down all business until the market crashes. Stop reading the news and the spins and the takes and just talk to people.
I fully agree with you. 2 caveats.
For the last 15 years, that I can recall, every year it was reported that more people who are or lean left have been buying the bulk of weapons. The left isnt toothless and honestly, most of the fucks who drove around in Trump trains, bullying on the freeway and what not, would shit their pants if fire were returned their way. Like all bullies, theyre real tough until they meet someone who is, then they’re a bunch of chicken shits. Case in point; Uvalde
And it pains me to think it but I do; America’s “silent majority”, those too afraid to lose what they have to speak out, won’t budge until we see a REAL loss.
Take this, entirely plausible scenario.
Trump wins the election, not because people want him, but because the status quo (which is all Democrats can ever offer - they aren’t a party of leaders; they’re a party of middle managers) is destroying us all, and/or because our support for Israel, as they become the newest genocidal, eternal victim/pariah. Genocidal Joe is a baaaaaad moniker. Trump comes in, 2025 starts getting implemented. To distract, in the name of national security/health war is declared on the cartels, without discussing it with Mexico first and the bombing campaign begins as troops are built up in Cali/Arizona/NM/Texas. Soldiers push out off of America soil. Skirmishes are ran across the border and back again. Keep in mind - any military action inside the states is illegal. Legally they would have to establish a beachhead to invade; but that defeats the softer point of the whole venture, which is to normalize military use around civies. Protests erupt after our military, under direct orders to do, start channeling their inner Israeli and kill every human in sight. Mexican Americans, the majority along the border, grind the 2 largest state economies to a halt. Police are overwhelmed…next thing we know, Tucson doesn’t exist anymore, thousands of American are dead, at the hands of our military…
That’s the threshold I think it’d take for any fucking Karen or Kevin to realize things have gone to far. I hope I’m wrong.
I hope Shawn Fein can pull it together for 2028 like he’s mentioned. I’ll be standing in the roads right next to you brother.
It won’t be the US military. We will see multiple PMC hired to do the dirty work.
They will stage at protests, “hear” gunfire, and engage the people protesting with a hail of bullets. All this time conservatives will cheer the deaths of liberals.
They will stage at Democratic voting districts to keep the peace, and to do so only allow 10 people in line. Everyone else has to wait in their car. Polls close at 1700 due to unsubstantiated threats of violence.
