This is what I really don't understand. So the game plan is to use a violent response as an excuse to use a violent response?
At this point we're looking at 10s of thousands if not 100s of people kidnapped, and we're all doing nothing under this pretext. Is this message from the opposition?
The thing were all forgetting is that we don't have to fight ice, we just have to fight billionaires and their security. The sooner we understand that, the sooner we can all sleep without worry
It's a catch-22. If people fight back, Trump & Co steam roll us with the military to quell "the violent left." As people have remained relatively non-violent, the state keeps upping the ante in hopes that the people respond violently, which in turn "justifies" a violent course of action from the fed. They're only really heavily antagonizing blue cities.
The purpose of all this is to extinguish opposition in order to transform the US into some bastardized rosey view of the 50s where the majority of people are white Christians, where men are in charge and women keep quiet, and that they can control the economy from on high to further enrich "the right people" while keeping the poors at bay. This is all entirely spelled out in Project 2025. They're trying to throttle anyone not in 100℅ agreement with their view of the right America.
I get all that.
They've already convinced the right, they don't need this show for the right. They need this show for us, which they won't get. So who's it for?
The left might protest peacefully but the right might not (ie: J6). When this happens the left will be blamed and shown as example, when really it’ll be one of their own people. They’re doing it cus it’s making them money.
