They will gaslight this country to its death.
Some of these guys are very, very dangerous and will push us towards civil war before they give up power.
Remember that violence is what they want so they have an excuse to crack down and use martial law, etc.
The Courts must uphold the rule of law despite these threats. This is (supposed to be) America. We are not free unless everyone has due process.
He's a loser. As are all his "dark enlightenment" apartheid neo-Nazi bootlickers :-)
Makes no strategic sense for the government and for America!
Makes perfect sense if you're billionaires who want to cripple the government and make sure it can never actually stand against you ever again. 🤕
When 4chan becomes.. "reality"
Buddy if you can't hold more than 2 thoughts in your head there's no real discussion to be had lmfao. The longer you are in denial about Russia the more power they have.
What are we personally gonna do about Russia? If you mean by force - nothing. Don't fight a land war in Asia. (In fact, conquest & imperialism is bad, mmkay?) Bombing our enemies only makes hardened future enemies. But they are attacking every democracy, and they are assaulting ours via MAGA. That is useful to get people to see. Russia, and their agents, are not working for you/us. They are infiltrating and co-opting governments around the world.
If you can't or won't see it you're just blind. 🤷🏻
Absolute dogwater argument. That I'm distracting or don't see Weimar parallels because I also understand/see how Russia has been attacking everyone 😂😂😂😂 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 I'm trying to focus on unity and the many issues we are facing
And you're here crying like a bitch "but nooo stop with Russia bad"
Are you Russian?
From the court's mouth itself:
"It is difficult in some cases to get to the very heart of the matter. But in this case, it is not hard at all. The government is asserting a right to stash away residents of this country in foreign prisons without the semblance of due process that is the foundation of our constitutional order. Further, it claims in essence that because it has rid itself of custody that there is nothing to be done.
This should be shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans removed far from our courthouses still hold dear."

There's no loophole here... republicans managed to take over every branch of government and are willingly destroying the constitution because their views matter more to them than America & democracy do.
It's usually called treason 🤷🏻
Tech Bros like Musk & Thiel spent too much time on 4chan & doing drugs, and with some help with certain other entities, have been spinning 4chan into reality.
I don't have the story you're referencing. But Curtis Yarvin has a quote about that basically his vision for overthrowing democracy was splintering off everybody by spinning fictional realities.. INTO reality.
Partially by splitting everybody into, say different cities (or different social media) where it's easier to control what people are seeing
🥲
As someone who could have been an incel, it's been horrifying to see 4chan become normalized, become elected and is becoming reality.
Singing a song of angry men?
Were you not young before/after the start of the internet? Not trying to be snarky, it's more trying to understand perspective.
I could have been MAGA, no question. Here's my anecdote: (edit: too lazy to correct so please don't pay close attention to the tense of my words here, I was partially speaking from the perspective of being a kid again but I didn't stay consistent)
I grew up in a diverse area, so I've really never believed in racist stuff. Those kind of conspiracies I used to just handwave the racism stuff away cause it wasn't the important stuff to me that I did kind of believe in. I literally even used to watch some of Alex Jones conspiracy videos.
Really easy to get lost in this crap as a teenager alone at 4am.
Like I said I grew up in a diverse area, and in one of my first real relationships, I got a lot of pushback about certain things (I was kinda blue lives matter for a bit for example) and when that ended, one of the big things I took from it was I wanted to be a more accepting person, and I've been an increasingly-raging leftist ever since.
With the rising loneliness epidemic (which actually extends to both genders - EVERYONE is increasingly isolated) I can only imagine this sort of story is increasingly common. And not everyone comes to the same conclusions about wanting to be more accepting, etc.
I was very lucky to go through those experiences and learn what I did from it. There's probably another universe where I instead got increasingly angry & further into all those things - from the cruel & crass words to the conspiracies - and am wearing a red hat
🤮🤮 at the thought of that
