FFS. You, of all people? Fascism is the best you can expect?
OK, then what are your strategy and tactics? Be specific and give reasonable operational detail.
Don't know how to burst your bubble, but we're in no danger of being permanently saddled with this woke commie crap.
Where did I so much as hint at any of that? Do you mean to imply that our liberties are not at grave risk; that we have not already sustained huge losses while Theye cultivate their power and exercise ever more brazenly?
Like it or not, wer are made war upon, or do you not believe this to be so?
We can do better than your lesser evil.
Alright, then lay it out for us, and please - no vague generalities. We need hard specifics that take into account the fact that Americans are just about at each other's throats in many locales.
We are not going to do worse. They've made Biden too unfunny a joke for his senile ass to be preserved.
And what do you think it is underlying reason for that? Ineptitude? Or perhaps its a finger in the eye of America that says "we can do anything we want and you can't do shit about it"? I keep hearing from cerain sources like x22 that Trump and the military are secretly setting up the fall of the "deep state". I hope it is so and I will cheerfully don my Village Idiot suit, marching proudly down Fifth Avenue if I am able to go home at night and watch the public executions. It may happen, but let us be realistic in our expectations that it is so.
I'm not sure whence your seeming sense of optimism. Firstly, we stupid Americans allowed ourselves to be maneuvered into this position, which says little good about us as a people. All the great inventions in the world mean nothing at all if we show no sense for the basics such as out liberties and the rights that devolve therefrom. It's like the great philanthropist, giving and helping and raising up the less fortunate - all well and good, but a single grand felony such as murdering his neighbor so he can have a swag at his daughter is the single-point event upon which he will be judged, were he to commit such an act, erasing every merit he'd theretofore earned in the eyes of others.
But that aside, and secondly, we can't get it up to put a single lousy brewery out of business for taking measures that offend the sensibilities of otherwise decent and nominally rational people. Anheuser Busch should have filed for chapter 11 long ago. The outrage at their PR flop lasted what, three weeks? A month? Way to go, American big yaps.
So how, then, are we to dig ourselves out of the pit when we have no sand even to bear mere inconvenience? Remember 2008 when that Kenyan prick was foisted on us? An economic bubble burst and legions were calling it "economic collapse". Fuck's sake, that was a hiccup and some people got burned. If Americans think that that is collapse, boy will they be in for it if and when an actual collapse occurs. Millions... tens of millions will die for want of knowledge and guts; people who become suicidal if they can't have their cell phones.
But please do enlighten us as to how we will yank our freedoms and our rights from the jaws of the global tyrant, and I ask this not sarcastically, but forthrightly as someone who doesn't see much over which to be optimistic. Perhaps I've missed something; I often do. But I can also be very thoroughly circumspect and tend in such matters to be rather diligent in my generation of tangential possibilities. So please show me what you've got in mind and we can take it apart and decide whether shows promise.
This is no time to stop being a radical.
But what does that even mean; go to war?
They're trying to make Trump look like the only option.
What are the others, besides Biden, etc.?
Why would you help them do it?
And there's your error, assuming I'm helping the scoundrels. And I wrote, and apparently you missed it, I fully expect Trump to do it to us. That is my assumption going in so that I refrain from unrealistically optimistic expectations. Anything less that a full-on buttsex attack would leave us in no worse a position than we already enjoy. And don't take that too literally; I'm trying to have a sense of humor about all this nastiness. Sometimes it gets me through my days.
They're trying to make this such a high-stakes cycle of their lesser evil game that we say, we won't make you fool us any more. Take our constitution and our rights -- please. Biden is a toothless boogieman. One look and you know he won't last.
Fine, but you seem to be evading a central point that Biden is a sock-puppet. Theye have their hands way up his bum and if it won't be Biden, it will be someone else. This whole circus turns on the assumption that Trump was indeed and outsider, that he cannot be bought, and that he cannot be bullied or otherwise intimidated. It may be real, it maybe theater. We won't know until...
It's a high stakes game. And as @
Anti Federalist noted in another thread, they've never been more vulnerable. Ever. Certainly Trump-flavored fascism will make the remainder of your days more comfortable than this Biden Soviet is doing, but I prefer to think of the children. Some of them do deserve better.
I agree that they are vulnerable, but it becomes real only if we come together in sufficient mass and we ACT in the right ways. As things stand, and as I mentioned just above, we just seem to have no gumption to get it up and stick to a commitment. We seem to be so rotted with corruption for convenience and ease, we just don't want to rock the boat. Wouldn't want to lose access to tinder, eh?
They are only vulnerable if enough of us do the rirght things, and thus far I see no hint of that happening. So if I'm supposed to be dancing down the avenue with a boner, you're going to have tell my why.
Our best bet is mass disobedience, but we'd rather sit at our terminals and curse Eville Conservatives or Eville Liberals, wasting our energies underscoring our differences, rather than emphasizing our commonalities. How does one talk to a frothing lefty whose only desire is that a cop shoot you dead where you stand and that your children die long and freakishly agonized deaths of cancer? What do you do with your fellow travelers who say all the right words in the right order, but won't get their fat asses out of the recliner? As I've said many times before, the one thing for which I must give the left due credit is that they get out of their moms' basements and they burn down entire cities. That's commitment and dedication to ACT, something thoe who claim to love liberty do not seem to have in common with their mortal foes.
So let's have it: what is the plan? I'm always ready to learn something new and be proven an idiot.
Thanks in advance.
