And 3D print a large quantity of caltrops. See how far the weekend warriors will get on flat tires.
At this point, blue areas of the country just need to stop paying federal taxes entirely and use the taxes to just better themselves and themselves only. Starve the federal government. MAGA has no idea how much funding is actually from blue states and blue cities within red states, and it's best they find the fuck out.
So the asshat went on twitter and posted some stupid AI image of him like he's in fucking Apocalypse Now and essentially declared war on a US city.
and the US will do nothing about this and continue to let him run rough shot over the nation while news articles come out left right and center stating "what he's doing is illegal!" US democrats will also shout "what he's doing is illegal!" what I've come to learn about the current US Political system "nothing is illegal if there are zero consequences"
Honestly at this point what's to stop him from just saying "There will be no more elections, I'm in charge for life and when I die I will pass down leadership to my next of kin" who would stop him at this point? I honestly don't think anyone will.
If anything the media is sanewashing harder than ever as they're like, "oh the economy is starting to flash red lights, and nothing to worry about yet, but it could be bad" bitch please there's a goddamn economic armageddon coming and a disease one to follow, but OK let's keep everyone calm.
Hate to be the guy but this was all said back in October of 2023. We failed and people are still not getting it. Its soon to be midterms and no one has gotten the message yet. Just sad to see people so out of touch.
Chicago Preps for Trump's Looming Militarized 'Invasion'
...by protesting and threatening litigation.
That is not how you prepare for a Nazi invasion.
I'm positive I remember Churchill's speech about fighting them on Main St with signs, and fighting them in the courthouses.
I'm positive that isn't how we actually fought them. That was done with bombs and bullets.
If you forget to educate the children they too shall grow hateful and resentful. You do not wage war with demons for they will sully your kindness, you are but graceful and peaceful for you need not weapons to be truthful. Their own religions and words turn against them were you to do any of this in your day to day minutiae.
Do not soak the pyres that will burn you and me alike. If they are to turn to you who they claim is violent and dangerous and you show them such, they will only believe their lies. Virtue is a weight most heavy and you are letting it break your balance.
Please extend to me where I have lost you.
You do wage war on Nazis. Grace, kindness, and education are not appropriate responses to that type of force. Once they're dead and gone, we can focus on prevention of future resurgence using those more amicable tools - our failure to do so is why we're in this position now, but the extreme circumstances we've allowed to fester now call for extreme intervention.
Nah, I think a bigger role than some shitty excuse is the reason.
Lately porn has been getting more race based, with 4chan - a popular fox target using it as a dog whistle to garner an audience for their messaging. Fappening gets an audience about 4chan being more than just deranged sickos, get the gooners in and then make them feel emotions with no one to speak to. Then target them through pepe. People really dont understand how it essentially was a powertool assisted by free flowing weed to cause irrationality and impulsivity. With it being unnoticeable in modern methods of consumption.
C'mon bro it's much more than just our failure on that. It's the same people who can't understand that differences between a group of people and singular. It's the fact that while fighting racism people make race a central talking point still.
Its a whole conglomerate of issues being facilitated by a Russian spread conspiracy theory vitcimizing the jews which is pretty easy to spin. It's a self isolating groups with no real in, and kinda falls against modern faiths in which salvation is afforded to all. Along with a rich history to pull from that has probably integrated local cultures as it grew. (What they hate the Samaritans for(which just shows they CAN recognize a separation of state and religion as they do embrace them as Israelites)) Just how christianity did as it grew.
...aight, what the fuck? We don't appear to be talking about the same thing. I've got no insight on the best way to address depraved gooners on the internet.. you do you on that front.
But if a Nazi comes knocking on your door, you shoot him before he shoots you.
Nah, you're talking about old names for old enemies. You must realize gooners and desperate men are at the forefrunt of this whole scheme.
People who think they have been robbed and depraved who will slaughter for an ounce and when the dust settles. They will know their place, their emptiness, and how they were used.
This is not the first, but genuinely you have not seen the pipeline of hate that draws these men. You can notice patterns with the political movements and actual sorting of threads, unheard of in 4chan pre 2014.
Remember the one who bought the media and remember the one who bought shitter, but don't forget how they can make it tempting. Blame the others for your innate loneliness and fuel the pyres beneath them, they will attack all but the dark loneliness within.
That's what's being announced. There is more going on that's not announced.
Here's hoping. I'm currently trapped in the cousin-fuckingly deep south, so I'm pretty detached from anything happening Chicago, but I wish my friends to the north the best of luck.
And for fuck's sake, leave your cellphones at home, wear a mask, and wear gloves.
I live in the suburbs and I can assure you there are people on encrypted apps that are definitely organizing.
What would help the US more, and for the same cost is an invasion of tradesmen building affordable homes.
Yeah, imagine if the money we are throwing away on the ICEstapo were to be put to use in building affordable homes. Turbo-charge something like Habitat for Humanity....
But that might let minorities actually compete,which would be unfair /s
Many Chicagoans will actually lose their shit if they try this. Chicago doesn't take kindly to fascism. If they shoot one single US citizen it will be Trump tower that burns down.
Chicago doesn’t take kindly to fascism.
Have you heard about the Chicago police department? They literally operate their own black site.
If they shoot one single US citizen it will be Trump tower that burns down.
Even before they shoot someone, that'd be a nice outcome.
The scare quotes are not needed in this case.
Well you’all have guns so what are you afraid of?
