I think it's just them realizing that without the military protecting them by threat or actual force, they're liable to be literally on the chopping block. To that end, I will note that the private military contractors have seemingly been disturbingly quiet for having an authoritarian in power.

This is some Doctor Strange spellbook shit. "Why would they put the warnings at the end?"

They got private donors to fund the troops, I believe.

I also didn't know about the Nazi connection, it looks like something a biker would have, which should have been a red flag to the imagery I guess, but it looks like a kind of standard skull to me otherwise.

I have a raised eyebrow on Platner. He seems genuine. A couple of odd details admittedly. But unless he's some kind of psyop candidate, he seems fine enough. I do wish his cover up for a Nazi symbol was much further away from the accusation than Celtic symbols.

Sopranos and Game of Thrones are the ones I recall having the most uproar. To this day, new videos on YouTube about how awful they were.

It's definitely a thought, though. I think they've been doing that lately. Moving too fast. Overplaying their hand. Being too overt in their power grabs. Rocking the boat more than they need to. A lot of pundits seem to think the urgency is because of Trump's quickly failing health. That does seem to track

As if he wasn't going to do this anyway. It's just faster for him to do it without the uproar. If the media were doing their job calling out how batshit stupid he is, maybe it wouldn't have gotten to this point.

"Opt to go uninsured" is certainly how I'd phrase the choice between affording rent and food or healthcare.

Had to stop though since I found myself going through the fridge on a Sunday once looking for some alcohol.

I had a similar experience except I'd open the fridge before work and instinctively grab a beer or start to grab one before I realized I was just there for creamer.

It might be the case. But look at the candidates we've had that are women. They're fucking awful. Hillary has politics that are probably to the right of Nixon, Jill Stein is clearly a Russian operative, and Kamala is a fucking disingenuous cop. So yeah, this country has a shit electorate, but the candidates have done nothing to show me that we absolutely wouldn't vote for a woman candidate.

 

Seemingly thousands of people currently, based on the video and I've seen reports that more are showing up every few minutes.
