Maybe Trump failing will accelerate change in the ethos. I don't blame him, I don't think anyone can do what he set out to do, the enemy is embedded like a tick. Misinformation, corporate media, online social media etc. This is just the beginning for us. We'll see how it all shakes out in the short term, but I have high hopes and optimism in the future.
Boomercons and hold outs and the blue pilled will one day get through their cognitive dissonance, it'll be hard on them though. They still believe that the keys were handed over to the president. The only major power he has had is persuading the blood thirsty military industrial complex and friends (it hasn't been hard to persuade them to do what they do ever, look at Obama) to drop some judgement. That and the "allowed" "power" of veto and executive orders. His ability to speak on the world stage has been powerful as well.
This idea he has unlimited access to the vault, because he is the president, is simply nonsense. He is the enemy of these people, they don't just play nice because muh president. It doesn't matter what anybody learned in their shitty low information high school civics class or what some low IQ nob says online. He wasn't supposed to be in office and a majority of the federal beaucracy and agencies do not acknowledge him and never wanted him. Their goals are at odds
Once you add in all of these programs at the state and federal levels, you can really see how shit gets out of hand quickly and the infighting begins. Everyone wants their piece of the pie and wants a say in how it's made. The power to spend and tax that the federal government (+ all the state and local thieves) has accumulated is destined to lead to a fractured society. Kind of like how people who won't get student debt relief feel disenfranchised (we will see if this happens to the degree the left wants it, even though it's already messed up as it is). No shit you would, where is my support and bail out? If you feel like it's your money or your piece of the pie being taken and shuffled around to someone who made a bad decision, well it doesn't feel good. I mean imagine that kind of bullshit in all facets of life, it's everywhere in society. The distortion that has been generated by this bureaucratic nightmare is in so many places some just wouldn't believe. Good luck taming the beast, I fear that we will have to relive this lesson many more times to come. It seem to not care who wields it, it finds a way...
Funny how it took someone this long to get to the point of "we kill now". How many of these larping freaks supported the same old same old and just got on with their lives for decades before this? Kept paying taxes, kept relinquishing their rights, kept voting the same. Kept believing the system was "fine" or working for them. People have been trying to tell and warn people of this shit for decades and decades. I have little sympathy for all of these ass hurt clowns right now, they failed themselves and others for decades, they ignored the warnings and didn't want the debate. Now they decided enough is a enough? They shrugged off the long descent, and now they want me to go to war with them? Where have they been? Where has the military been? Where has the police been? Where have the judges been? Where has anyone been? Oh guess where, now they REALLY mean business! The military will save us! Insurrection Act! Come on guys let's take our country back! Why would I have any faith in the military or anyone doing the right thing? They never did for the years leading up to this, they just followed unconstitutional orders and further tightened their grip. Same of nearly any body of power All of you larping blowhards who might read this: GET A GRIP. COME TO REALITY.
you're not allowed to have nuanced views here, if you ever were allowed. You have to make shitty knock off 4chan memes, and boomercon jokes about crossing the rubicon. also have to be edgy in your calls for nuclear war and the jews. feels like there are a bunch of fat annoying 50 year old disillusioned neocons from facebook around here trying to be funny...
There are so many ugly people running their mouths these days on here. These people need to take a hard look in the mirror. They remind me a lot of the hated neocons. Same blowhard warmongers who act like they just got on xbox live for the first time and get to talk shit.
So many blowhards around here acting like they just found out they can get on the internet and talk shit. No one here is going to fire a single shot in rebellion, no one is going to get off their ass. They had ample opportunities to do something over the years while the state squeezed them harder and harder. Law enforcement, military, judges, senators, representatives, had many opportunities to not follow orders and laws that were unconstitutional anti reason and life, and but they still did it. This isn't new, yet people with short memories seem to think it is. They'll forget today happened in 20 years and they'll do the same "I'm really angry this time!" dance at whatever bullshit is happening then. The irony of it is I bet some of the people talking about the "ammo box" are people who have sat on their hands, voting and participating in the same corrupt system for the decades that got us here. I guess I'm just not sure I believe them
In the gym 5 days a week at that. These people are absolute parodies. Some of you out there reading this, get a grip.
You speak with certainty that's the only way? Anyways, who said democratic action or unilateral action is needed? Maybe divorce freedom from democracy and authoritarianism
