I've been waiting for the ramp up to start going after liberals. We're seeing the beginning of it. Look for trump's speech tonight.. these guys are such whiny bitches.

Frankly, I'm kinda surprised that nobody has pushed back on ICE with "higher stakes resistance" yet.

I think people are really hoping the midterms put an end to this debacle. If not, i suspect protests will rise beyond marches and speeches into more direct forms of action.

We already know that the GOP is going to claim election fraud when they lose, and I hope Americans are ready to oust politicians who refuse to leave by any means necessary.

Hell fucking yeah we are. I've been ready. They've already earned it 20x over as they are the true terrorists in the U.S. They are the ones with everything to lose. Which they took from us. People with nothing to lose can do some crazy shit. And there's a lot more of us than them.

I hope whoever is monitoring Reddit for Trump & Co. sees this comment. I'd love to be on their "list". This fucking Nazi talking as if a Republican run U.S. is a good thing.

u/MalcolmLinair 13h ago

Then they'll be ended with Hellfire missiles launched via drone from one of the many military bases firmly under MAGA control. The Right is positively giddy at the prospect of finally getting to paint the streets of every US city red with US civilian blood, and don't think for a moment that anyone will stop them.

The Nazis weren't stopped by the German populace, and MAGA won't be either. Only outside military interference can remove and entrenched Fascist Dictatorship, and with the US's nuclear arsenal even that's not an option.

Bottom line, MAGA's here to stay, and there's nothing left we can do about it.

u/_Debauchery 13h ago

Resistance would most likely be akin to the Irish Troubles. You can’t bomb your way out of that.

2

u/MalcolmLinair 13h ago

You can with nukes, and MAGA would love to see LA, San Francisco, New York City, etc wiped off the map.

And yes, I really do think they're insane enough to nuke US cities if the mass slaughter of protestors doesn't work. There is no bottom when it comes to MAGA's insanity and depravity.

1

u/_Debauchery 13h ago

Nuking major cities would destory the USA. Trade would stop, the economy would collapse. There would be nothing to rule over. Highly doubt they would do something like that even if they are insane

That's why, for all the talk of "violent leftwing extremism", it's completely false. There has been far less violence than I'd expect to see when France loses the World Cup. The only violence has been that inflicted upon minorities (especially those in detention) and protestors.

u/khonsu_27 18h ago

I'm actually kind of terrified... I think with a free and fair election, the dems will clean up no problem. But with Miller and whatever trump is going to say tonight, it's obvious they are going to pull some big time shenanigans. Then when we react they just start shooting and/or locking us up for 50 year sentences. What are we supposed to do?

This election is our last chance, and if they blatantly steal it we are fucked.

But what is it that you get? Are you going to start it?

u/m3g4m4nnn 16h ago

I get that you are living within a failed democracy, and the longer Americans hang their hopes on said failed democracy, the further your fascist government will have pulled a peaceful transition of power out of your collective grasp.

As for what I'm going to do? Continue to do what I can to increase my own resiliency as I await an invasion from our "friends" south of the 49th Parallel.

1

u/Mysterious-Action202 19h ago

Scared is what we need to be.

Afraid of our rights being stripped away further. Afraid of our neighbors being taken by masked goons. Afraid of what will happen if we dont act.

You can't have bravery without fear. And American people need motivation to get into the streets, protest, and vote. Fear is a great motivator.

They use fear very effectively to control their base. Conservatives have done it time and time again throughout our short history to turn their base against non white citizens and immigrants. And to convince them to willfully give their freedoms for security.

u/Ashesandends 18h ago

America grew to greatness because we were the melting pot of the world. I'll stand up to these fascists fucks at the ballot box until I can't and then pick up whatever I need to so I can keep fighting. My grandpa fought nazis and I'll be damned if I sit by idly while they try and steal this damn country. I see nazi shit in public best believe I'm doing my best to kick shit off. Shame them back to the crevices they belong in and when shame doesn't work fight harder it's the only thing they understand.

1

u/Fievels_good_trouble 18h ago

Scary is the right word because regardless of our actions or inactions, the GOP can cause any dissenting voices a lot of harm in a very short amount of time. Being brave has nothing to do with something being scary. Bravery is just doing the job that needs to be done in spite of it being scary.

It's hard to tell. Sometimes they act like they have a checkmate in hand. Other times they act like cornered animals lashing out.

u/TehSeksyManz 20h ago

I've been telling people to arm up for years now. It won't be too long before you get flagged by the feds as a domestic terrorist because of a post online advocating for single payer healthcare during your background check when buying a gun.

It sounds hyperbolic, but it isn't. 

Also, everyone needs to read p2025. Like you said, this is all in the playbook. They intend on expanding the power of the executive branch, and have succeeded to some degree already. Why would they do this knowing that eventually a Democrat will win an election? We both know why.

Get to midterms. GOP wins - they crack down more and get crazier. GOP loses - Trump has already laid the groundwork with tonight's speech that the elections are rigged. Things get crazier.

No matter what, we are in for crazy.

I personally think he is going to say tonight that they have proof he won in 2020 and that Biden cheated. Then after the midterms, he will claim he is entitled to a third term since he somehow got cheated.

2

u/doodullbop 17h ago

It's not exactly a novel idea, but the failure to hold Confederate traitors accountable after the war is directly responsible for the situation we're in today. By not having treason trials, the former rebels were allowed to regain political power. The "Lost Cause" myth was created, i.e. the war was noble and about "states rights" not slavery, you still hear this bullshit repeated today. The Confederacy became romanticized, antidemocratic ideology was allowed to survive. It laid the groundwork for modern anti-democracy movements like maga.

3

u/Sooh1 19h ago

Luckily the biggest differences between Hitler and trump are his biggest weaknesses that'll cause him to not really accomplish anything. Hitler wasn't a total moron, he was evil as hell but he was fairly smart and surrounded himself with decently intelligent people whereas with the Epstein administration I'm honestly not sure if half of them know how to tie their shoes. He also was able to intimidate people or use his charisma to get them behind him. Whereas trump has support that gets lower daily and his supporters are generally fairly stupid anyway and not a real representation of the average person and once you really look it everything it's more humiliating than scary. It seems like the Epstein administration are doing horrible shit but looking at it broadly instead of just what thing they did today to distract from other things, 98% of it has been failure they're distracting from. Outside of ruining the economy because he failed miserably at several other things so he's punishing everyone, the only victories he's really had have been annoying but inconsequential things. Putting his name on shit, which he ultimately fails at anyway, stupid coins and his signature on a bill, renaming stuff. That's pretty much the only things they've really accomplished. They want to do so many evil things but get stopped on damn near everything, he can't even build a damn ballroom that'll likely not even be anywhere by the time he's gone.

Bizarre.

1

u/Sooh1 11h ago

There's many reasons that happened and none of them have to do with intelligence. Straight up lying is the biggest. Appealing to the lowest common denominator also. Plus both candidates were so awful that more people didn't vote that voted for either of them. This election there were no winners. If the democrats ran someone like Shapiro, they might have had a real chance but instead chose the VP with the lowest approval rating in history to run against the president with the lowest approval rating in history.

1

u/JrSoftDev 10h ago

Lying strategically and in risk-controlled manners requires organization, cooperation, and intelligence.

If Musk rigged the elections, and it seems he really tried, then Shapiro or Jesus himself wouldn't matter. Rigging an election requires organization, cooperation, and intelligence.

Not suffering consequences from the Epstein files requires organization, cooperation, and intelligence.

Etc.

1

u/Sooh1 10h ago

I don't so much think it was directly rigging like adjusting votes, I think with Musk he just blatantly bribed people... then never paid them cause it seems theyre all suing him now. Hiding stuff doesn't require intelligence either when they directly control the flow of information

1

u/JrSoftDev 9h ago edited 9h ago

Blablabla. Elections can be rigged by a dozen different combined strategies, bribing people is only the one being investigated right now. Being in a position where you can "directly control the flow of information" requires... no, enough. Anyway, they are all idiots and you are the smart one, good for you.

Edit:

> If you want to give them undeserved credit thats on you, but reality is theyre all morons who prey on the stupidest people in the country and nothing more. Half the shit they say is barely coherent and none of it stands upto any scrutiny or fact checking. Its definitely not intelligence that got them here.

all the incoherence is done on purpose, it makes them... look stupid! ... ... They know their electorate better than you or I. Now goodbye.

No point in going quietly when the Feds show up anymore. Our judicial system has fully collapsed. Why would you think you’re going to get a fair day in court anymore?

These mother fuckers will slap the terrorist label on you just for saying you don’t like what ICE is doing. And they will lie and cheat and commit fraud to obtain convictions. Do whatever they have to to make sure you don’t get a fair day in court. Someone in Texas just got sentenced to 30 fucking years in prison for moving a stack of items or some shit.

Actually, many of the court cases against leftist protesters were dismissed. People at the local level saw through the lies.

A US immigration agent has testified he could feel through his ballistic vest the impact of a sandwich hurled at him by a Washington DC protester, who has gone on trial for assault.

Customs and Border Patrol agent Gregory Lairmore told the jury the snack "exploded all over him" and he "could smell the onions and mustard" on his uniform.

Doesn’t even matter. It destroys these people’s lives whether they are found guilty or not. Immediate financial and reputational ruin simply by bringing the charges.

That is your best case outcome of being targeted by this Fascist ass government. You avoid going to jail but your life is destroyed nonetheless.

Next they will claim that making a two party democracy into a one party is still democracy.

u/EggFuYungMan 21h ago

This is straight out of every far-right dictatorships playbook. Claim progressives/liberals/socialists/communists are enemies of the state and terrorists then proceed to encourage or use state sanctioned violence against them.

Own a gun. It's your right.

Organize. It's your right.

Your believe in the system and democratic process must be strong. I hope your right. I think this is frightening. I had many hours of history class on Nazi-Germany, as a German for obvious reasons, and this right here is history repeating itself. A crazy mixture of German history, 1984 and Idiocrazy, and I fear your constitutional system isn’t strong enough to not be blatantly abused if wanted, and the point of return has been already crossed. They are bombarding with so much propaganda, and people are spending time on their TVs and especially smartphones, soaking it all up.

well they are like, what are the democrats going to do about it LOL. i think they might have a point based on how far they got so far.

u/Railboy 20h ago

Also loving the conflation of 'Republic' and 'Republican' and the implication that 'liberals' are therefore advocating for a different form of government. It would be funny if their constituents weren't ignorant & stupid enough to fall for that kind of rhetorical trick.

u/xDisgruntledGrizzlyx 20h ago

It's all fun and games to hate the faceless libs online, but what about when they start terrorizing and policing them and it's their spouse, child, sibling? Do they still enjoy owning the libs when their wife is gunned down in the street for a Facebook post? Will they like it when their teenage son is arrested for attending a protest and charged with terrorism?

u/Iccotak 20h ago

They are going to start calling protests “left wing violence”

Notice how he says “it always ends in bloodshed” while it is the right wing modern day Gestapo that are shooting US citizens in the streets

u/slow-tf-down-dude 19h ago

The court case in Texas labeling some violent protesters ‘antifa’ is all they were waiting on. Even the mildest of the protesters got 50 years just for being there. But the violent, destructive, criminally convicted rioters of January 6th were all great people. The lines are drawn pretty clearly.

I suspect we will hear more about this tonight when Trump goes after the elections.

u/s1m0n8 19h ago

Don't worry, I'm sure the moderate Republicans will step in if the administration becomes too extreme. Right...?

u/Reasonable-Turn-5940 15h ago

The "Republican form of government" can not tolerate Democrats or a two party system. They want a one party system. Just them, forever.

MAGA sold us down the river for these Nazis. Never forget.

u/Critical_Host8243 13h ago

This was done before the speech tonight so that any opposition to whatever Trump says, can be labelled as "domestic terrorism."

After watching progressives throw a fit over Harris and not endorse her which helped create this mess, I’m honestly ok if they get to experience some consequences.

1

u/Ptolemi121 20h ago

Are you alright man? You're okay with the government/administration potentially using extraordinary force whether physical or legal against its political enemies because they didnt endorse Harris? How is this your take away instead of wtf is the admin doing?

u/hankhillsucks 22h ago

Its been an operation for a long time now

They convinced liberals that guns should be banned and violence is never acceptable, now they dont have anything to fight back with

u/EddieCheddar88 21h ago

If you think liberals don’t have guns I have a bridge to sell you

u/hankhillsucks 21h ago

Okay look, I KNOW, im lib with guns up to my ears, but every liberal i try to talk about it says they are against them.

I suppose they could be trying to keep it a secret, but way too many liberals are against the idea of a gun. Im tired of going to the range  by myself surrounded by chuds. Im tired of giving my views to shitty youtube gun people. Im tired of gun stores being soaked in conservative bullshit

u/EddieCheddar88 21h ago

Literally all of my lib friends own guns idk what you’re on about

Probably depends on where you live. I'm in a more rural area, and all my non-Republican friends have guns.

u/tehlemmings 17h ago

Do you not realize that's the exact argument you are also making?

u/hankhillsucks 17h ago

They exclaimed "idk what you’re on about"

And then I told them 

Idk what your issue is, but like fuck off

u/SirkutBored 22h ago

I would like to point out the word choice was Republic, not Democracy. If you understand the difference in how those two words operate you may get an idea of where the stress point lies. A democracy is a direct vote while a republic is voting by proxy and the faith lies in the proxy voting in line with the majority.

u/Dxxx2 20h ago

The word choice was Republican. Which is much worse. He's literally saying people with different ideology are the threat and then spews random lies about the people.

u/TurbulentWing3820 20h ago

"And to the Republic for which it stands."

We are a republic, not a democracy. Sometimes they call it a "democratic republic" or a "representative democracy" but it was officially a republic, hence the Pledge.

People are free to feel how they will about the rest of this statement, but that's important to note that that portion is not some sort of political statement.

1

u/clobits2 19h ago edited 19h ago

We are a constitutional republic. Our constitution outlines a system of... wait for it... democracy.

"Republic" means the power is held by the people instead of a king. "We are a republic, not a democracy" is a nonsense statement. Are you saying we have a dictator? Because we do not.

u/TurbulentWing3820 18h ago

None of which changes what the guy said, so glad we agree.

u/clobits2 18h ago

And I'm glad you learned something.

u/agent_mick 19h ago

That's the word play they're hoping to use and it's already working.

We are a republic, not a democracy. Sometimes they call it a "democratic republic" or a "representative democracy" but it was officially a republic, hence the Pledge

I hate to break it to you. But those are all forms of democracy.

u/TurbulentWing3820 18h ago

You're looking for deeper meaning when I'm pretty sure he said "republic" because, y'know, its the way we've been described since the founders did the founding.

1

u/agent_mick 18h ago

And that's fine.

What I cannot handle is the "its not a democracy" part of the argument cuz that's some bullshit

0

u/TurbulentWing3820 18h ago

To be fair, James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, Ben Franklin and John Adams all specifically rejected calling the United States a "democracy."

1

u/agent_mick 18h ago

Yes. They refer to direct democracy several times over the course of their bodies of with. Which we are not. Our republic is a representative constitutional democracy.

2

u/tehlemmings 17h ago

If you weren't a conservative, you'd probably be able to figure out what kind of government a Republic is...

1

u/SirkutBored 16h ago

Man, everyone seems to have missed the point so let me be explicit. not all states require by law for their delegates to vote in accordance with the popular vote. it is taken on faith that they will but they are not bound to it. if there's a hitch in the giddyup that's the weak link.

1

u/chopslops 8h ago

"it is taken on faith that they will but they are not bound to it."

Nearly all electors are either legally bound or can be replaced if they attempt to vote differently. You do not know what you are talking about, you are overgeneralizing and implying that there is some systemic weak link that does not exist.
