actually i dont live in the us so i look a bit more to the globe

Well, its a fine line to walk. I think the left responded as they should have in Cville. If the Nazis fucking start it, punch the fuck out of them. They are after all Nazis.

Bingo bango.

Yeah, I’m originally from OH and I see a lot of people I know in deep with this. Some members of my family, lots of old friends. My buddies who still live there tell me its pretty fucking scary how deluded these folks are. And how dangerous its starting to feel.

I just brought that up in another thread.

All basically a result of the fact that after WWII, America was literally the only economy standing. It was a period of unbelievable prosperity that they now won’t acknowledge.

We underestimate them at our peril. Shit could potentially get extremely bad here.

This. 100%.

Possible.

Ditto. But everyone needs to sell themselves on some kind of half-truth to get through all this. This shit is fucking nuts. I kind of can’t believe I’m living through it.

I think that’s a valid concern. But three thoughts. 1/ I think when people realize what actually happened, anyone on the political fence (read, rational adults) will be so appalled that any shred of this behavior will be condemned for generations. 2/ I think a lot of it has to do with Boomers and them needed one last…

I am too. I think Boomers are fucked in the head. Not all of them, but enough of them that its a problem. They are the definition of American exceptionalism but refuse to acknowledge or share it.

Hopefully you don’t need it. But not a bad idea to be prepared. Just don’t do anything rash, as I’m sure you know.

Yeah, I think you underestimate the scope of this. Pence covered for Trump, Flynn, Manafort, Kushner, et al. He lied to the American people for them and as head of the transition team he put a known Kremlin operative in head of National Security. If he pardons Trump, he loses all credibility and support. Of which he…

I think they realize that this is literally the last chance they will ever have. Boomers are the front lines of this bullshit. Once they’re all gone, we will achieve a more stable equilibrium between the right and the left.

Once all his crimes are brought out into the cold, harsh, bright light of day, the results will be inevitable. The GOP will have no control over his fate. No one will really. His fate has become a demon, manifesting itself in his actions. Growing sicker and more destructive by the day. When you doubt his fate, look to…

Oh, I’m still on board. It’s just NO ONE is publicly speaking out, in real time, against him. Ridicule him publicly and relentlessly. Make him appear totally powerless. Destroy him using his own weaponry.

They’ve already convinced themselves that the anti-racist protesters heinously attacked those poor innocent neo-nazis, and it’s been less than a week.

Someday soon you won’t. Don’t you worry about that.

As a fellow gun-toting liberal, this is the exact opposite of what you should be doing. That is exactly what Trump and his team of Russian lackeys want. That gives them the ability to place blame on both sides.
