“And so I come full circle on this response and just want to encourage you with some substance that we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be,” he said.
Hopefully this news reaches the notvoting crowd and knocks some sense into their brains. Any help is a step towards saving democracy in America.
Who isn’t expecting violence in November?
This would be violence after January. 2025 refers to the year.
Horrible events like January 6, or 9/11, each get a name.
I wonder what Monday’s SCOTUS ruling will end up being called.
Bc that seems to me to have been the turning point - not the beginning, obviously (you could point much further back to e.g. Citizens United) but when it really allowed/encouraged things to ratchet up.
Magna Carta Americana
Even its wiki page says it was not unique, was not for common folk, and also it was repealed even though portions of it were re-issued. If you mean that this could be used as a name, I was thinking more along the lines of like “Madness Monday”, except you know… something actually good:-).
Same dif.
There’s a huge difference. They are talking about resistance to the fascist policies after they are put in place.
Anyone who thinks this won’t start in November is fooling themselves.

You are really missing the point.
I’m really not. I’m just way more pessimistic. I grew up around the Aryan Nations. I have a very vivid idea what is going to happen.
Yes you are. The point is that they are talking about official governmental reprisals for any sort of resistance, not uprisings.
This isn’t warning of violence, this is announcing when they’ll start building the camps.
Lots of talk in this thread. I stood during the pandemic against anti-vaccs and no-masks and intend to again. I’ve heard a lot of excuses, mostly surrounding a need to work and pay bills and how they cannot jeopardize that.
I wonder if there will be excuses this time.
I’m not sure why you think the need to work and pay bills isn’t a legitimate reason to not do other things. You have to eat to live and living is a lot harder without a home. Or with a home but without services like running water.
Because it’s just an excuse… I shower daily but somehow that task doesn’t prevent me from doing other stuff
Similarly you can work and pay your bill while still setting time aside to organize, protest, write, etc
I thought we were talking about people using having to work and pay bills as an excuse to not go out on the street and protest. You can’t do any of those things from a cell, which is what they’re risking. I don’t blame anyone for not risking that, especially if they have people who depend on them like small children.
But sure, they can do other things like organize and write. That’s true.
You can’t do any of those things from a cell
According to whom… Perhaps not for long, but Americans still have the right to assemble peacefully and some freedom of speech left
Some of us have physical disabilities that are not very visible. Prison would be a prescription for even more physical ailments.
Then that is a different (actually valid) excuse
but Americans still have the right to assemble peacefully and some freedom of speech left
Sure. Tell that to all the BLM protestors that got rounded up. Or the college students protesting Israel this year for that matter.
So your point is that Americans are excused from protesting going straight into fascism because they are basically already there?
The ones with children to feed? Yes. Do you have children who rely on you to survive?
I think it was an excuse not to wear a mask/get vaccinated, but exanime lost their own plot.
It is an excuse, when used as a barrier to why they can’t. My point being that these rights, expectations, social norms, whatever else we might call them or list, are being slowly shaved away. There is also something to be said for that risk being one of the leashes placed upon the working class. A fear of reprisal. A very real fear, unfortunately.
Yet this is where we are. Either we take these risks or risk everything being systematically taken away anyway while we struggle to pay ever increasing bills. A slow death from financial squeeze.
More people should know what’s in Project 2025. It’s a guide to creating a Judge Dredd universe, where the only people living in it will be the Super Rich and the Super F*cking Poor.
They’re not even trying to hide it.
NutWrench, you are fined 1 credit for a violation of the Verbal Morality Statute.
Does this mean I have to learn to use the the shells?
Different Universe, but I’ll allow it.
You ever see those teeny, tiny baby shrimp? I’m talking the REALLY small ones? They have bigger dicks than that impotent fuck.
Ironic that they’re the ones who blessed us with all the stand your ground laws and lax gun control. Bump stocks it is
Bumps stocks are illegal actually
They’re actually legal federally now, tho many states have banned them
Consider it challenged, punk
Don’t insult punks like that
Yeah the punks will join us on this. Call him what he is, a fascist.
Why is he not under arrest for incitement to violence?
This man is a coward. He wants other people to do the dirty work.
The continental congress wasn’t starving with George. Happens every time.
Glad Project 2025 is becoming public
There have already been several shootings by people trying to trigger a “race war”.
I remember when “Race war now?” was just an edgy 4chan meme… Better days, used to on the internet when someone was being racist it was a comedy routine mocking the absurdity of racism, nowadays… people actually mean that shit.
Sadly I remember the “Bugaloo” movement, because everything has to be a joke now, even repeating the Civil War…
Yikes. Incredibly dangerous.
Man are you guys fucked! All that is standing between you and a death cult is a senile old man with one foot in the grave. Yeesh
That’s no problem in a constitutional republic. If Biden wins and is senile, we get Jill Biden as pres. If he wins and dies, we get Harris.
I hope he lives. I want Harris to fall into obscurity. Her record as a DA and involvement with private prisons is disgusting.
Me two. I think Jill’s been doing a good job so far.
Luckily it’s two old senile men with one foot in the grave.
It’s really not, though. Trump is backed by people even more bloodthirsty and totalitarian than he is.
Biden is backed by a bunch of enlightened-centrist appeasers whose biggest policy goal is disarming themselves.
that doesn’t mean much. If Biden dies, Trump will likely win.
If Trump died that wouldn’t really change what the Republican party is trying to do.
Evil people seemingly live forever
The best part of that line is that everyone left of fascism reads it as a direct threat - bow to our will or there will be blood, while the right can claim it’s just them worrying about the left turning violent.
They just want to murder their way to a just and harmonious society. How can we achieve a just and harmonious society without consequence free political violence?
The modern conservative agenda reads almost exactly like Timothy McVeigh’s manifesto for blowing up the OKC federal building. Not even joking, read it. You would think it’s a modern Republican speech.
These people want to enslave/kill everyone in the cities, all minorities, all LGBT+, and people who voted blue. They aren’t even hiding it. They want that massive transfer of wealth which is behind their agenda.
Remember, this is what all conservatives want. There are no exceptions. They all support the outright violence. It is what their party stands for.
I know it’s meant to be a threat, but he really makes it sound like he’s at our mercy. It will only be bloodless if WE allow it.
It reads as “give up everything and nobody needs to get hurt”. It’s basically a taunt on their holding freedom under duress.
Those people scattered hard when of these died on January 6th. None of them really know how bad it gets in countries that actually go through revolutions. Not that we shouldn’t be prepared to protect ourselves, but they have no wherewithal to follow though to the end.
It’s because they’re the go along to get along cowards who end up ignoring the flesh scented ash falling from the concentration camp constructed 15 miles outside of their hometown because admitting they were wrong would mean they accept responsibility for their complicity.
Revolutions are easy. You attend some rallies, you put some flags on your truck and you repost some memes on Facebook. If things get really dire, you change your profile picture for like a day or so.
Very few do, no matter the “side”, and those with the skills & training to do so all too often eat their own guns after the dust settles. In war, the only victors are the ones pushing pawns. Every single other creature is a victim to it, in one way or another.
This is very wise. People let their blood get too hot to see they’re in the boiling pot.
People never see they’re in the boiling pot. Or the crab bucket. Or the slaughter line. Or the prison-filling shame machine. Or the no-one-else-is-as-special-as-you ritual paint before the holiday sacrifice. Etc.
I still hold that the “Heroes Work Here” signs all over the Bible belt would be atop guillotines instead if there were any sense salvaging this “nation”. 🙇🏽♂️
Threaten us. Get rocked. Play the victim/it was a false flag we weren’t even there. (Not either/or, both/at the same time)
The Crimson blood of my enemies has always been my favorite color.
The important part is to go after him and other people in leadership. They was us to fight the local maga crowd, not them. Fighting the local maga crowd gets us nowhere.
My local maga crowd is harassing a local teacher for having rainbows in the classroom. I’ll keep fighting both.
I’m going to put an lgbtq+ flag in my classroom next year. I don’t expect anything to come of it, but you never know.
Typical toxic abusive gaslighting BS, while enabling the violent crazies on his side to boot.
It is bonkers to me how these people would be tough to accept as the villain in a children’s movie, yet here they are in the real world with millions of grown-ass people supporting them.
Nobody ain’t scared of them.
