  1. Would ya look at that?
  2. The people who fill the streets during protests aren't really "the left." Most of them are just members of the community, many of them haven't been politically engaged before, and they're protesting because they suddenly see that they're under threat. Protests are not the result of some backroom scheming by professional Democrats who think brown-skinned people waving Mexican flags is good optics. You can try to organize smallish groups of protesters, but once it gets large enough you can't really command a large protest. He can be insufferable sometimes, but Will Stancil has a really good thread on this shit on BlueSky right now: Don't peddle the "it'd be better if they weren't carrying Mexican flags" shit. That's giving in to GOP framing. You give them that and they'll find another angle and you'll give on that too, and you'll just keep giving because you think it's an argument. It's not an argument. It's a demonstration of common humanity and an assertion of rights and agency against the oppressive boot of the state. Anyone who wants to help, stop worrying about how the optics aren't as ideal for protesters as you imagine they could be and start thinking about how you can make the optics worse for Trump and his dipshit toadies.
  3. Yeah, Trump THINKS widespread protests help him, but they didn't help him in 2020 and they're not likely to help him now. People are confusing the fact that there is often a later backlash to protests with the immediate politics of protests.
  4. A guy who's never known a shotgun to be finicky has never owned a shotgun.
  5. Fuck that. The LA County Sheriffs department is well known as probably the most violent and corrupt law enforcement organization in the country. Rub ghost pepper in their eyes too.
  6. We've got some speeshul boys here, but Zeus might be the most speeshul.
  7. Enjoy: My favorite part about that one:
  8. Clearly I'm getting too close to the truth. You stormed the capitol on January 6th. Prove me wrong.
  9. Zeus, why do you keep avoiding my question about that boat in Baltimore and where were you on January 6, 2021?
  10. The good news is they're only really at "concepts of a plan" here, because they're incapable of anything more than figuring out the bullet points Brisket outlines above. The way they're going about things often end in the military refusing orders and the regime collapsing.
  11. It's mighty damned suspicious that Zeus keeps dodging this question. Who's paying him?
  12. Zeus, do you still think someone (maybe Jews?) highjacked that boat in Baltimore and rammed it into the bridge?
  13. Well, Zeus is probably so terrified of a woman that he'd have to get kitted out like he's deploying in Fallujah to get within twenty feet of one.
  14. Given that this is the news thread, seems like it should be a punishable offense to post an old picture from Baltimore as if it's the current event.
  15. Again, no object permanence. I have a very long and consistent history here of being very critical of both of them.
  16. The party has been fighting by the playbook you're promoting since 1992.
  17. Why don't we skip to the end where you blame some rich Jews?
  18. Only Democrats have agency, in some (stupid) people's minds.
  19. You can't steal Incredulity's bit. That's his property.
  20. Where were you on January 6th?
  21. Don't forget, that guy was also a pedophile. Why does Zeus love pedophiles?
  22. Actually, you know what? I can't find any evidence that he even posted on January 6th at all.
