You're viewing a single thread.
The only thing that Americans can do is obvious and yet all I've seen online is finger wagging and "hot takes". Fucking embarassed for you.
There's a reason every American was raised on the mantra of "violence is never the answer" and "if you fight back you're just as bad."
Peaceful protest against tyrannical governments only work if they're seen as an opening offer backed by the potential for non-peaceful escalation.
Too bad one party decided that guns were bad and spent the last 50 years disarming itself.
First of all, "one party" simply asked for regulation instead of bending over for the NRA without it even reaching around to return the courtesy. Second, there is a reason why lone gunmen shoot up schools and not military bases.
The NRA, which has been proven to be fu ded by Russia.
What are you gonna do when the government comes after you with your scrawny ass weapon? It'll work against a neighbor, sure, but the military can see through your walls using wifi alone. There's a literal helicopter above your house tracking your every move. They know more about you than you realize. This is the strongest army in the world we're talking about.
And, even if violence sounds tempting, there are so many things to do before any of that, like resist and organize. You can definitely fight back in man other ways besides a picket sign and a gun. I'm not sure why those are the only two options.
You don't get in a tank fight with a pistol. Pick your battles.
United Healthcare just lost 80 billion in value when some rando took out its CEO.
What are you gonna do when the government comes after you with your scrawny ass weapon?
The same thing al quaeda did in Afghanistan I presume
efore any of that, like resist and organize. You can definitely fight back in
resisting and organizing are necessary steps.
Do you really think they'll be effective against the man that will happily mow down the people resisting?
When one side is ready to use violence and the other side is not, the other side always loses.
We're still monkeys with sticks over here.
Is he mowing people down? He's purging and people are resisting, as they should. And despite that the only threat has been towards us foreigners. You have more to worry about your fellow bleeding heart patriots. Arm yourselves against those first if you must.
Let's let this post sit here and we'll see who rusts first
Alright, fine by me.
Americans can vote, and a majority of them voted for this a short few months ago. This is exactly what he said he would do. This is what he did the previous 4 years he was in power. Americans want this. They don't even have the excuse of popular vote this time around. They fully committed to this.
thinking that voting is the only necessary political action is how you all boiled the frog
I'm not fighting in a violent revolution against an insane retarded fascist controlling the most powerful military on earth because some people explicitly chose to not prevent the fascist from taking office out of their sense of virtue pearl clutching.
I'm not fighting in a fucking violent revolution against an insane retarded fascist controlling the most powerful military on earth because some people explicitly chose to not prevent the fascist from taking office out of their desire to pressure me to fight in a fucking revolution (left accelerationists), I hope they have fun getting shot/tortured by fascists.
I owe both of these groups nothing. I did not choose to be born and I did not choose their revolution, I'm out. I hope they're happy with the shitty world they've enabled.
Violent revolution isn't option 2 but it might very well be necessary, and I don't blame you for wanting no part of it but we'll all be thankful if it happens. People have had to make tough choices in the face of fascism and evil throughout history and it's only thanks to them that those things have been rebuffed in the past.
Yup.
As an American I can confirm that Americans are fucking stupid.
Hope you're comfortable with us having the most powerful military to ever exist. I'm certainly not.
49% of voters, about a 3rd of eligible voters
49.8% (so rounding it would be 50%) and 3 million people more than in 2020. And a whole a while 14 million more than in 2016. Eligible voters who didn't vote made an explicit choice and are equally complicit.
They had a choice of a dumbass and literal criminal and a prosecutor and they made their choice.
All the 2A nutjobs who have been waiting their entire lives for this turned into fucking crickets.
The nutjobs still think he's on their side, unfortunately.
