Turns out all the dystopian visions of the future we saw in movies, books and TV were right all along. Soylent Green, here we come.
Not just the mandates, but how many aren't even defying the mandates? I bet not too many. This has become a nation of pussies who are afraid the 15 year-old checkout girl at the supermarket is going to say something to them for not wearing a mask.
Given that Conservatives can't even take it upon themselves to take off the damn masks as a show of defiance, I admire your optimism, but I can't agree that they're up for it. There's few of us with the resolve and dedication to see it through. Most of them are going to just "get on the trains" when they pull up.
I've been saying this since it became apparent that nobody was going to lift a finger to stop the coup. I remember growing up thinking that I never cared to live anywhere else but in the United States. That never changed. Now I feel like that happened without me having to even move. This is no longer the United States of America. This is now just a bunch of connected land units divided by arbitrarily designated geographical borders.
He should just run for Governor in a red state currently burdened with a Leftist governor. Not being selfish here or anything but there is one I can think that immediately comes to mind where he'd be welcomed in with open arms.
Problem is there's no remedy at the ballot box this time around. Particularly since state legislatures are now going to take a pass on fixing the voter systems in their states since they think nobody's watching anymore and will feel safe going back to dedicating post offices and voting themselves raises.
I was thinking more along the lines of Publishers Clearing House sweepstakes...or a free cup of applesauce at the supermarket.
They already did it with Curt Schilling. Not to mention getting credit card companies a while back to prevent purchases at gun stores.
There might be a lot of uniting of fists against Leftist's faces, but that's about it.
That's the exact plan actually. No time wasted hemming and hawing over writing a new Constitution. We'll just take the one we were supposed to be using to run the country, instead of as toilet paper.
They could reform elections in their state, but won't.
This right here is the bigger problem. I live in a "red" state with a veto proof majority in the assembly yet all they've done so far is introduce a few redundant abortion bills, one of which they were celebrating because it allowed them to prosecute anyone who performs an ILLEGAL abortion. That's right. They allowing crimes to be prosecuted.
In regard to stealing elections, not even one mention. These people have now simply confirmed that they have zero fear of retribution in any regard. They probably don't even get nasty looks from people in the supermarket line anymore. If they did, they would likely demand secret service protection. "That guy looked at me and shook his head! Have you ever seen such hate in your life?"

Good luck on the local level. They're corrupt as hell there, too. The only difference is they're a little more under the microscope and easier to access.
This is why I've been saying that pushing for secession is the best route. Then we make that exact country and watch the parts we cut off rot in their own sewage.
You're describing things when approached via a pretty moronic strategy. You first shut down their ability to communicate and now things are even on that front. One person with an RV just did it a month ago.
Or secession of all red states/counties. Good thing is our side is the one that has worked their whole lives and knows how to multitask.
I was laughing my ass off at how boring it was. Think about it critically just as a film, no politics. It really was borderline unwatchable and would be completely forgettable if not for how awful it was.
More "hope porn." Some rando on YouTube claims to know something that he wouldn't have knowledge about in the first place and then broadcasts it to the world that there's a super secret plan going forward. OK. That's completely believable.
He doesn't give orders to civilians. Also, how did that work last summer? All those people burning down entire cities were going to turn around and go home on the orders of some person of authority?
Ray Lewis has entered the conversation.
Because I was focusing my energy locally. That's where the fight is. Not LARPING around Washington with 10 year-olds and 65 year-old ladies who think it's a school trip. If I wasted my time and money going to D.C. only to find out it was mostly going to be another Trump speech to the exact demographic I described, then immediately after he told us to go home, I would have been pissed. I personally think he owes everyone who attended an apology for showing up to support him after he promised a whole lot that wasn't delivered then turning on those same supporters. He should have been sending reinforcements to help the people who showed up; Not making a video telling them it's time to go home. And then you all listened...so keep talking about all that you achieved.
Were you at DC? probably not. I was.
From what I saw, chances are you're probably either a 10 year-old kid there with their parents or a 65 year-old lady. If not, you were part of the clean-up crew who once again showed up, made a lot of noise, waved some flags, then left the city cleaner than when you arrived.
It needs to happen for Trump and his family's safety. These traitorous criminals aren't going to just let him walk off quietly. They're going to want their revenge. I look at the story of the county clerk in Kentucky who refused to personally sign marriage certificates for gay marriages. She allowed her office to issue every fake gay marriage certificate that came in but didn't want to sign them herself. Fair enough, right? Nope. Not for the Left. They wanted her punished on top of it. She went to jail for a short time, had her name dragged through the mud and then lost her job. All because she simply gave them what they wanted, just not the exact way they demanded it be given.
This is why it would be best for Trump to go out all guns blazing.
That said, it's not going to happen. I hope I'm wrong, but if it were going to be used, it would have been done already. It's time to stop focusing on "hope porn" and start focusing on actual solutions.
Amazon is shit. Unfortunately, I had a couple of people present me with Amazon gift cards and I was stuck with a TON of money to spend at a place where I never shopped. So we ordered a few things we needed that we couldn't find elsewhere. Most of it turned out to be pure crap that was returned. What we didn't return ended up either breaking or being complete pieces of crap. We bought a multi-pack of (brand-name) batteries and the batteries must be from an old lot and disguised as new because they last only about a 1/4 as long as the same brand that I buy from a supermarket. One of the things we ordered was shipped directly from China without noting ANYWHERE on the product page nor during the checkout process that it was coming from China.
I ordered a book from them (which you'd think they have nailed by now) which was supposed to be shipped directly from Amazon. After ordering they changed it to be sent from a third-party vendor. Once again: No notice prior to ordering or during the ordering process. I've also found a lot of things cheaper on other sites than on Amazon. I think they're exiting their predatory pricing phase because the fake pandemic put a lot of their competition out of business.
I know some people love Amazon. They falsely claim you can find "anything" there. However, they're ignoring their blatantly deceptive practices because, once again, it's something "they" like. Sort of how there are so many so-called Conservatives that keep handing over money to Netflix or subscribing to Showtime.
Then secession is going to be the only way. The cancer is too deeply rooted. We have to cut off as much as possible and start over with the same Constitution but only with parts of the country that actually care about it.
