First you get people comfortable with defending genocide in another country, then they won't be so resistant when you start doing it in your own country.

Back in the late 80s, a friend of mine went on Wheel Of Fortune, and won pretty big. Back then, you won "money," which you then spent at the end of the show in the big showcase of products.

My friend went with a strategy, and bought stuff like wall-to-wall carpeting and a fridge, but also a couple things like a gaudy gold watch.

When he got home, he was getting his haircut, and his barber said "I saw you on Wheel. That was a nice watch you got." My friend sold it to him. That was his strategy - buy stuff for the house, but also buy some stuff that would be easy to sell, so he could pay the taxes out of his winnings.

Remember that the ultimate enemy are the Sociopathic Oligarchs, and their Corporations. They have nearly unlimited finances, so they have to be resisted in other ways.

Nah, he doesn't need to blackmail HitlerPig, he just needs to pay him. HitlerPig would rape and murder his own mother for a million bucks. Imagine what he would do if Putin offered him a billion dollars? Putin could easily do that, and it would be the best billion dollars Russia ever spent.

I tried explaining that to a couple of people a few days ago. It's not just rhetoric, there's an actual reason they like to declare a "War" on various things like drugs, terror, etc. By declaring a "War," it allows the government to access certain policies/ strategies that are only available during wartime. When they declared a War of Drugs, it allowed law enforcement to get extra federal money, as well as justification for militarizing the local cops.

In this case, it allows HitlerPig to use some old wartime powers act, even though its not a war, and the people hebis targeting arent actually combatants. Its just an thin excuse to deny them rights, as if they were enemy combatants on a battlefield.

It's not that complicated a plan, even a moron like HitlerPig could understand it, but that doesn't mean he will actually accomplish his objective. It is likely that in the end, we will be saved by his virtuosic incompetence.

It was a win-win either way. If we won the vote, it was a good win like we won the Canada vote,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) told reporters Thursday. “But we knew if we lost, every single Republican — including those up for election — was the single vote that kept … these onerous tariffs on the backs of the American people.

This fucking loser, again. "If we won the vote...," except you didn't win the vote, you simpering weasel. Once again, you snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, and somehow feel smug about it. Framing easily avoidable losses as positives is why America has been stolen by MAGA Nazis.

This fucking hump loser has got to go. It's not enough to decide not to run for reelection, the Dems need to reject him from power, and force him to resign in embarassing and humiliating fashion. Let AOC have his seat, and find someone with some spine to be the Senate Minority Leader.

I'd keep Sirhan Sirhan from assassinating Robert F Kennedy That's where the timeline split, and sent us down the timeline where Conservatives dominate and brought us to where we are now.

Had RFK lived, he would have ended the Vietnam war years earlier, saving thousands of lives. With Vietnam out of the way, he would have focused on strengthening America, making it less dependent on foreign oil, making the 70s a boom period, instead of a decade of poor Republican governance.

Nixon wouldnt have resigned, inspiring Ailes and Cheney to establish the Conservative Propaganda Machine, which began the Conservative brainwashing of America, helped elect Newt Gingrich elected, and controlled the political rhetoric until the present day.

The Conservative dominance of America started with the assassination of RFK.

The media in this country is useless. They now think their entire responsibility is to offer a platform for the MAGA Nazis to spew their propganda, unchallenged.

I'm ready for a "Hot Tariff Summer." By Christmas, 75% of Americans will be out of their minds about HitlerPig and his MAGA Nazis, and a good portion of the remaining 25% will be outwardly supportive, but inwardly worrying badly. A few will be loving it, but they're just pyschopaths.

At that point it's going to start getting really, really ugly. The plan is make people so angry that the protests will get violent, and if they don't get violent on their own, he'll encourage his RedHats to instigate it. Then he'll send in the military to quell the violence with even more ferocious violence. This is why he is keeping Hegseth, no matter how poor his performance at the Pentagon - he is confident that Hegseth will order American troops to fire on American citizens who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights.

Hegseth will also launch a nuclear weapon, if ordered, and that day is coming.
