We Rejected Monarchy in 1776. The Supreme Court Just Brought It Back.
We Rejected Monarchy in 1776. The Supreme Court Just Brought It Back.
King George III was tossed aside 248 years ago. Now the court seeks to impose King Donald I.
The illegitimate Supreme Court brought it back. Don't forget that Republicans stalled for a year to get one of their Justices, and we have two known perjurers, two that have openly accepted bribes, and an insurrectionist flying fascist flags outside his home.
There's no court with authority over the Supreme Court. There's no systemic means to operationally define their means as illegitimate.
So, if the system is to be preserved, the rules must be respected, and We the People must tolerate corrupt Justices until they choose to resign or die. But, such is intolerable! The system must yield. But, if it ignores its core rules then it deserves no respect!
It's important that we recognize that various systems are scams and learn how they work. But, often, just like this example, what we find is that the system allows no means of recovery that We the People would find adequate.
They'll always tell us to be patient, to wait for a more convenient time for change, praying that enough of us don't reason our way into enough systemic impasses to do more than cast a meaningless ballot. Most of us have very little and trust each other even less. But, sacrificing for our neighbor is the only way forward.
You're not wrong.
And who signs 90% of these apparatchick's paychecks? It's the billionaires.
The billionaires are the ones LARPing as the puppeteers. And if we don't challenge them, their shitty LARPs are uncontested and become real.
The billionaires are the primary beneficiaries of the status quo.
Pack the court, or order the CIA to assassinate the conservative justices.
Of course neither of these will happen.
Time to get your passports current.
please do not elect Donald Trump for fuck sakes
Not really up to a few hundred terminally online liberals.
Trump is just the current iteration. This is a long term problem.
Republicans like this right now because it benefits Donald. It's going to come back and bite them in the ass when it helps their opponents.
You're assuming a lot: elections, peaceful transfer of power, Congress composition, even the unity of the states is an assumption at this point. If King Trump gets in, many states will refuse to cooperate (if you think this is too wild, many locales and at least one state already refuse to cooperate with ICE, Texas was at one point not cooperating with the Feds on their Southern border). What happens after that is anyone's guess.
SCOTUS is illegitimate.
I know it's been said as a joke a million times. But it feels like the current POTUS using his immunity for official duties to unilaterally correct this SCOTUS problem that is a flaw overlooked by the founding fathers would be a legitimate, official act that is done with the interest of the country and not for personal gain.
Straight up killing the ones taking bribes and inserting left leaning judges would cause a civil war, and I'm not sure how you can use this immunity situation to correct this problem through policy. Either by creating some sort if oversight, term limits, maybe, since Supreme Court judges are so important they should be elected by the people, not congress, idk. But If immunity to crimes is the hot topic right now, water board them all.
If Biden ordered their assassination he would have my vote and donations to his campaign.
If Biden assassinates, pardon me, official acts out of existence at least Thomas and Roberts, or better yet all 6 of the servative judges, I promise I will forget for 4 more years that Tim Walz, Marianne Williamson, and Jill Stein even exist. I won't even mention their names. I will be a Biden-stan for the next 4 years.
Power grows out of the barrel of a gun.
Wait a minute...
Grabs the SCOTUS by the hair and removes the mask revealing them to really be
"King George?!"

Ruh-roh!
I'm gonna start growing veggies. I need to get all the gravel out of my back yard first. I need to spend money to practice at the range, ballistic tubes is the most expensive hobby. Today I'm organizing and helping John Brown breakfast club. What other actionable goals should I focus on to dismantle our newly founded monarchy, comrades?
I recommend highly conscious and aware physical fitness, which is to say doing the exercises with full internal awareness of all that's going on subjectively in your world while performing the exercises.
If you can only do one thing, let it be running. Land on the bowls of your feet while wearing zero offset running shoes (web search "zero offset running shoes"), heels ever so slightly off the ground. Never heel-stomp during running. Relax deeply. Let the belly drop naturally. Consciously slow down your breathing and try to breathe as slowly as possible while running. While running attempt to enter a state similar to sleeping without actually losing awareness. So this here is work for both the body and the mind. Adjust your pace to make running pleasurable and slightly challenging in order to habituate your relationship to running as something you enjoy doing and something you look forward to. Get plenty of recuperation time, don't run non-stop, take breaks and let the body and mind recover. If you're older the breaks have to be longer too.
Then if you have more time and energy I recommend body weight exercises including pullups.
If you still have energy left, run with the kettlebells.
This is "born to run" by Christopher McDougall running theory right? My knees are kinda bad now so I get most of my aerobic exercise from bicycles now. I should probably find some grass or dirt to run in.
I need to set up a pull bar.
I usually clean and press kettlebells when I'm watching YouTube trash.
Are battle maces worth it? I kinda think just beating a sledgehammer hammer into the ground would be an equivalent range of motion.
If you have close friends with similar views make sure they get armed. Make sure they still vote and don't head down the path of extremism either. Go to your jobs. Make sure you family is still taken care of...
But remember that feeling in the back of your head saying get prepared, and do it.
Awesome I worked on that today 🤘
They've created an Emperor with themselves as Popes.
248 years of democracy, it was a good run bois
Saying the USA has been a democracy for 248 years is a bit of a stretch. when:
White men who didn't own land didn't get to vote everywhere in the USA until 1868.
Main-land Native American males who left their tribes and lived like white people could start to vote in 1887.
The above but for Alaska in 1915. In 1925, they needed to also be able to pass an English literacy test to vote.
Women were allowed to vote in the 1920's.
Black people were allowed to vote in the 1960's.
The act that prohibits racial discrimination for voting rights was passed in 1965.
Alaska Natives were able to vote without taking an English literacy test, a language which they may not speak, in 1970.
The cons have been upset with the founding of America ever since its outset.
Y'all won't do anything.
The logic follows that the people who should be doing something are the ones that we elect. While it's true that they aren't doing anything either, the shit won't really hit the fan until a republican gets the white house and actually starts abusing that power.
We still have time to resolve this without bloodshed and destruction. Most people see that and aren't going to jump the gun on what could very well be the end of their lives in the most heavily armed per capita country on earth.
“We” didn’t do shit. People in 1776 did, today’s Americans wouldn’t reject it out of fear for consequence to personal comfort.
Say “death to amerikkka” to your boss and then tell me we don’t live under a fascist dictatorship. It’s been like this since 1492.
