  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Quite a while. “No bishop, no king.”
  4. That's all you have. Torch shit because something happened that you don't like. Stop being a pussy.
  5. It's not a proper rise and fall story without a disgusting statue for the resistance to topple in 25-30 years.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. We would be lucky. He would be ineffective at making the military loyal to Trump.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. True. This guy doesn’t merit a Trump EO … probably.
  12. Presidents 1-46 couldn’t. But this guy is God’s own vessel come to fuck shit up.
  13. 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.
  14. @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.
  15. It seems pretty soon there won’t be many Gazans doing much of anything.
  16. “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.
  17. 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.
  18. User name feels a bit too on the nose. Advantage, aggy.
  19. Yes, it’s us assholes on surly that gutted the party. Finally someone with the courage to call us out.
  20. I agree with that, but taking it a step further, I think our culture needs to shift towards encouraging multi-generational homes. Management of scarce resources, transportation issues and child care costs/time management could be better addressed if we did.
  21. Who said there’s something wrong with it? My siblings and I been preparing to do it once health issues for both make it necessary. We might only be experiencing an acceleration of this by a couple years A lot of folks are not going to be happy being forced into it, and have no clue it might be coming.
  22. Lifelong Dems, and my sister is already going to step up in my family. I’m musing about the general populace.
  23. How many of us are prepared to take in a family member whose only income is SS or disability?
  24. DEI hire
