the fact that the federal government is removing sections from the Constitution on its official website should be the final nail in the coffin for anyone holding on to optimism or those remaining skeptical.

if you are in your 30s ask yourself if Bush would have thought about doing anything to even suggest altering or changing the constitution. the constitution of this country has long since been championed by conservatives to be “law of the land” as essentially infallible. they used to foam at the mouth if anyone attempted to revise a single part of it lest the entire document become obsolete.

it’s done, you guys. Project 2025 has won and we are not a constitutional republic anymore. dictatorship is being OPENLY attempted and if you still think at this point fascism is not here you are delusional.

wake up and get ready for whatever is coming after.

    Citizens are chasing ICE away in California.

    Yeah, but not shooting at them.

    People across the country are preparing themselves for armed conflict.

    This has been the case since before the Declaration of Independence.

    It’s “when” not “if”.

    That’s tautologically true. No empire lasts forever.

    There will be a flashpoint. There will be bloodshed. It’s going to happen real fast when it kicks off.

    I tend not to try to predict the future, mostly because I suck at it (see also: two ex-wives), but also because the more elaborate one paints a hypothetical future, the less likely it is to be accurate.

    None of those things is a given. The ICE/National Guard situation in L.A. shows that succinctly, with multiple flashpoints yet not a lot of bloodshed. This set of propositions is just doomerporn.
