Then we're the enemy too every time we comply with bad laws.
That certainly seems to equate what I was saying
Anyone who enforces bad laws is the enemy.
Key words there were ENFORCE, yours was COMPLY. Don't weasel out of this by accusing me of reading something into your words that didn't exist.
That isn't abstract thought that's utter nuttiness but ok whatever. I'll stick with the tried and true ground of enforcing evil is evil and orders are no excuse for carrying out evil acts, you know, what we all agreed on twenty minutes ago.
Sorry its becoming harder to defend these guys but not all cops are good or have excuses, in places like Portland all the good guys are leaving the police force or on their way out anyway so expect more evil from them at least in places like this.
Calling Cruz a RINO is descending into a type a puritanism that is not helpful. Cruz is no RINO, you might disagree with him but his ideology is 95-99% correct honestly there are a lot of MAGA people who are not going to align on free markets with this level of dogmatism. Do we throw them out?
I don't know what the timeline is but I sort of doubt the normies will be on board just yet, but if this shit is the same ten or twelve years from now I'd guarantee cannons and guillotines and yes, one way chopper rides.
As much as I'd like to cut ties with Republicans, it wouldn't work, we will have to keep moving forward with the strategy of subverting and eclipsing them. It will happen, Republicans have no moral or ideological core or enthusiasm that now resides with the "MAGA" constituency. I know everyone is frustrated by how slow everything is moving, but that is partially the nature of politics and partially a construct of the decentralized representative system which is intentionally designed to be inefficient and slow to change.
It's not going to be easy to rig a party primary. It's generally done in person scaling from district to county etc. We need to be the delegates selecting candidates, yes we can primary these idiots, we are way more motivated and angry and all the money in the world can't help them if we organize and remain focused. In 2018 we failed to do so we thought Trump would save us, screw that we need to send him reinforcements.
Don't leave the republican party. We are the real republican party. This requires us to get down in the dirt and scrap with the commies infiltrating at every level. What I mean by that is we need to become delegates IN EVERY ELLECTION. be a registered republican, sign up to vote for delegates last time I was there there were literally like 6 people showing up, that's 3 people you need to get to convince to send as a delegate to the next level. at that point if enough of us did this we get to choose who is sent on to select candidates at the primary and so on and so forth.
Run at the local level, we need election officials, people on city councils school district administrative boards EVERYTHING, run. volunteer, participate, your vote is nothing, no one cares, its the delegates minor bureaucrats and people in charge of elections that actually hold the power. We take it or they rule forever.
Was in Olympia on Saturday, when Antifa was throwing rocks and mortars at us, they told us (the trump supporters) to disperse or they would arrest us (they would not arrest Antifa because they were scared of them). Then when we left they didn't help us get back to our cars instead Antifa ran around the capital building and started hunting down stragglers (that was the context where one of them got shot). Its also important to note that this is after they had already trashed one lot of cars and there was no way for protesters who were not in that lot to get back to their car. Police are complicit in their own destruction, I will no longer support them.
This should be extended to most of the politicianswho are hurting the industry
