    Yeah, NIMBY is usually just bad policy. Nearby, in the reddest part of ultra-red Montgomery county, NIMBY means roads and schools. It’s amazing watching Magnolia ISD get flooded with students while they vote down bonds to give them a place to be during the day. Fortunately I’m in CISD, and we just elected board members committed to banning books. Stupid, but I’ll know which books to get my girls. I never get to “both sides” things, so there it is.

    If it comes to armed resistance, as you imply, and I’m somehow a combatant, we’re looking at a Man in the High Castle type scenario. Sure, if it comes to a real civil war / rebellion, I guess it’s possible I’m in the shit. But there will be no real rebellion. We are not those people anymore. We are fat, lazy, entitled, and awash in distraction. Maybe there will be the odd freedom fighter cells, and IRA type bombings here and there. So, no, I’m not dying along with just a few dozen others in a futile attempt to otherthrow the Trump Dynasty.

    This is on point. Ridiculous frat house worthy hijinks from the Dems may be the only thing that can save us. Yeah, we’re doomed.

    Correct. I keep seeing future elections, the press and "political fallout" as actual saviors from all this shit. Nope. Too many are too apathetic that even cancelling elections, or gaming them to return the results the GQP desires, is simply going to be a 2-3 day news story before the next Hawk Tuah distracts us.

    I'm not a coffee drinker, and I should eat less chocolate. But shortages and/or significant price increases on both are not gonna go over well.

    Meh. Just folks pre-reserving spots at a re-education camp.

    How much criminal defense have you done? Did you ever ask a murderer or a kiddie rapist why he did it? Did you quickly regret doing so? I never asked, but have had a few offer their reasoning. In my experience, the answers to your questions are not going to be enlightening or helpful.

    You negged my post pointing out the soon to be accelerating genocide. You quoted my response to your reaction. I guess my question to you remains. For my part, I’m coping OK. Could be better, I suppose. Apparently better than brisket, though. 24/7 rage will not brighten the coming darkness. Best to keep one’s sanity to better ride out the storm. It is hard, though, to be constantly reminded that my government will intentionally inflict so much pain on so many in coming years.

    Quite a while. “No bishop, no king.”
  10. softlynow
    That's all you have. Torch shit because something happened that you don't like. Stop being a pussy.
  11. softlynow
    It's not a proper rise and fall story without a disgusting statue for the resistance to topple in 25-30 years.

    I'm think on the world stage. In the 1860's you had to be pretty close to another army to attack it, and even then, the damage was limited. With a compliant DoD, Dotard will be able to push a button and incinerate Belgium.
  13. softlynow
    And? California and New York gonna secede? lol, no. Today’s Democrats are gonna “work shop it,” or “look inward for new ideas.” The military will answer the call of their CiC if the issue is extralegal, which secession is. Total non-starter.
  14. softlynow
    We would be lucky. He would be ineffective at making the military loyal to Trump.

    There are probably more Flynn’s than we’d like to believe, but I do think the DoD will be the slowest institution to be Trumpified.
  16. softlynow
    Congressional resistance? Just more faces about to be eaten. Trump, with Elon, has the power and money to control 2 branches of government. The other may slow things down for a few days here and there, but there’s no stopping this now. i think it will take a couple years at least, to bring the DoD under heel. At that point there’s no precedent for how bad this gets.
  17. softlynow
    True. This guy doesn’t merit a Trump EO … probably.
  18. softlynow
    Presidents 1-46 couldn’t. But this guy is God’s own vessel come to fuck shit up.
  19. softlynow
    Yes, fuck that guy. Sorry, though, I can’t cheer genocide. Those victims didn’t do this particular bit of fucking around. You’re missing the bit about other people paying the price for some of our dumb voters. I get your rage, man, but get some focus. If it comes to real resistance you won’t be useful as a berserker.
  20. softlynow
    @BrickHorn Are you ok? I’m not sure where you’re coming from on this. I’m personally sickened by just about everything right now. Single-issue voters in Dearborn, etc. didn’t do this by themselves, but it fits the thread. I fear there will be nothing stopping the accelerating genocide in the ME. I’m not sure whether you disagree or think I’m cheering it on.

    It seems pretty soon there won’t be many Gazans doing much of anything.
  22. softlynow
    “Things move faster.” Got that right. As soon as Trumps people notice they’re becoming unpopular he just issues an executive order that he fills all congressional seats by appointment, no more federal elections necessary. SCOTUS affirms the dismissal of lawsuit under the political question doctrine. In Jan 2027, there will be no opposition to his whims These fucks don’t play by rules. Stop pretending there is anything standing between us and total oligarchic hegemony other than the particulars.

    Tucker trying to get liberals to hope Cornyn becomes the rock of normalcy on which the waves of Trumpism break is some serious 6d chess.
  24. softlynow
    User name feels a bit too on the nose. Advantage, aggy.
  25. softlynow
    Yes, it’s us assholes on surly that gutted the party. Finally someone with the courage to call us out.
