Yup this is what my husband has been saying for a few weeks too. Trump media empire! We're in!
Thanks, to me it seems an obvious need, but my posts on that haven't caught on, and nobody else here is talking about it. I have a VERY strong hunch that we NEED to gather in person. It's the only way to communicate without censorship. Plus, knowing the people I've met at MAGA rallies, I think this will have a peaceful effect on those who are going nuts right now, while also giving our energy a direction toward action.
We do need to connect locally though. Peaceful rallies tomorrow, let's all do the same as we did the weekend before the election - reconnect face to face, unite and preserve MAGA energy and lines of communication.

You got it! That's what we need, I believe. I'm in communist NorCal and I never saw such a friendly good natured crowd as at our local Trump rallies just before the election. I think it'll do us good to all be seen, still here and high energy, ASAP.
Get thee to a ski resort, fun place to meet people. I sympathize, I'm also not religious and it seems like we need more legwork to meet the right people.
Great! I think AZ is the first state to officially do that. Between this and the Dominion investigation results, we'd better see the other fraud state legislatures take action!
This kind of thing is business as usual in some Dem-stronghold cities. "Community organizing" basically. There are always propositions and local races that need the city machine to round up "organized" support. Current thing for the Soros machine is getting radical DAs in office who won't prosecute crime, like as a blanket policy. One was on the ballot in LA this time and "won".
They worked to radicalize me to levels that shouldn't even be possible. I suspect I'm not alone.
Great explanation. I would add that wealth mobility also matters, and is only possible in a free market. Even with high wealth disparity, the US has historically had immense turnover in the highest and lowest earners as people move up and down depending on their work and risks. The left likes to mock "oh working poor in the US think they're temporarily embarrassed millionaires" as if that's unrealistic. Nope, if the government doesn't get in your way, you actually can earn more and achieve the American dream.
Yeah he had some significant wacky new policy ideas that actually had/would've had terrible consequences. Sometimes people like him who think so theoretically can be the worst at foreseeing practical outcomes. His big picture explanations are valuable despite it though. Same with lots of philosophers, like Aristotle, obviously one of the greats of civilization despite his fucked views on slavery and women.
Yeah, I love Friedman but that was a terrible move. Taxation should hurt!
Reading Capitalism and Freedom turned me from liberal to conservative as a teen. Guy really knew how to communicate.
Yup, people used to flood out the political stuff when it got too much, but not anymore. Mindlessly scrolling that site used to be relaxing. Now between the constant political crap and the Puckett controversy, I'm hoping everyone abandons it like I have.
People like to bash this but I think with some legal thought it's a great avenue for opposition. Charles Murray (the Bell Curve guy) wrote an entire book on the topic of civil disobedience through similar means called By The People: Rebuilding Liberty Without Permission. People need to be thinking about this for real.
