Correct. No offense to OP but this headline is one of the weakest takes on this site, and it’s being posted over and over. In theory to discredit Trump’s inauguration, if that happens.
Edit: it’s a weak take regardless of who gets inaugurated.
I’ll do some positive mind-reading and speculate that Scott is a good man trying not to be ostracized from the fabric of his life. His shadow demands rationality, but war is fundamentally irrational.
Sometimes the rational have to take off the logic-colored glasses and fight precisely because we have been given no other acceptable option by people who don’t hold the values of rationality. To use Scott’s own conceptual framework, rationality is not the correct man for every set of circumstances.
After the Nov 3rd election, Scott said he would literally help us throw the voting machines in the ocean if there was a second election with the dominion machines. My thought at the time was - but nov 3rd was already the second or third election with this problem that we knew of? Either way, now we are at his official red line. Technically we passed it without him flying to GA and throwing out the machines.
I’m a daily subscriber of Scott, but I can’t help but wonder - will he honor his word and join in direct revolutionary action as he committed? What happens to a Scott when all his thoughtful rationalizing is proved insufficient in the face of reality (the objective one), and when violence becomes practical?
What’s more important - taking out our emotions on other victims of divide and conquer, or saving our country and then working out our differences with cleaner political and media systems?
A great leader in Proud Boys could win the war with one handshake.
This is an opportunity to win - they should befriend BLM. Seriously. BLM is now seeing Biden isn’t on their side. He’s refused to meet with them. They might not like Trump, but Trump will fight for all Americans and Biden will throw them away and Kamala will throw innocent black men into prison.
Imagine a tomorrow where BLM fights with us.
EDIT: befriend BLM not antifa. BLM knows Antifa has been using them.
EDIT 2: Yes, BLM leaders are communists who we need not comfort. I’m saying - imagine how easy it is to win a war when your opponent’s soldiers join your side. Those people have a false idea of us, and it takes a man to walk in and forge a bond for our common good. BLM the communist org can’t survive the sunlight.
I understand Trump can’t reveal his plans for strategic reasons, but it also feels like an absence of leadership to leave his supporters in limbo. I’m seeing so many people who had recently become red-pilled now losing faith and moving on. Trump is really out of time and waiting until Jan 6th seems like a losing approach. Decisive action and enforcement of the law isn’t too much to ask.
Our job is to vote and speak the truth. The elections are supposed to be how we overthrow potential tyrants, but with no viable elections we are at their mercy. Trump needs to use HIS power now before he loses it. If he does, we will support him to the end.
Yes but tyrants take power under indifference. Everyone thinks “surely they won’t get away with this.”
I trust that Trump knows better than I do here, but he’s going to be standing alone if he waits much longer. Hopefully the DNI report is the trigger.
Trump betrayed us on this issue and left us in the worst position. I keep waiting to see if some plan emerges which justifies his positive attitude, but so far it just looks like South Park is correct and he bailed out in a way that humiliates us all. I don’t care about his social media or 2024 or even 2022. He owes us an apology or a rescue.
