Oh, bless your heart. You think Congress is going to do anything?

Which Democratic senators would those be? I know the answer. But I want you to find it too, and realize why your comment is nonsense.

Part of effectively fighting this shit and holding Democratic politicians accountable is understanding at a tactical level when there’s even a fight to fight. This isn’t that. Lambasting them for a situation that didn’t actually happen (and I do mean this situation, not the others in which they did vote as you described) saps the power from criticism of situations that DID actually happen.

It’s ok, we’ll just tow it outside the environment

The Old Ones will brook no compromise with these infantile new-age deities.

Oh my fucking god the DNC is so goddamn feckless. It damages my calm whenever I think about it.

Just because I want to see you dig your own hole deeper: unpack that one for me, champ. How so?

Absolutely.

And honestly, I’m convinced that that generation more or less fully dying out in the last decade or so (and I mean across the western world, not just in the states) was a pretty direct cause of this fascist resurgence, because everyone who was a part of getting rid of fascism the hard way last time around is in the ground.

lol fuck you’re probably right 🫠

No, I genuinely do think the unsaid part of their game plan is to just destroy as much as they can, wherever they can, as they extract wealth from everything possible. And then they’ll try to bootstrap a techno-fascist feudal system, most likely.

Yeah he might declare himself emperor or something, who fucking knows

Ok so genuinely, what the actual fuck are the fash hoping to get out of this besides a simple distraction?

No, because the boomers will get big mad

This is all by design

Now that’s a username I can trust.

You clearly have not read the article, and thus don’t understand that the prophylactic nature of the shot requires a 6-month administration cycle. Like when you get a flu shot, or a Covid vaccine. Or (with current PrEP meds) a pill that you take every day.

Read the article.

Yep, pretty much, if you’re talking about state schools.

And that’s by design. They’re doing their best to undermine higher education in any way they can because Steven Miller et al think that’s where the “woke mind virus” comes from, and also know that educated people are not only somewhat harder to grift, but also tend to think Miller and his ilk are (at the very least) massive assholes

So, call me crazy, but I really do think the protest organizers need to push WAY harder on the idea that while ICE is the enemy, the NG (and the military at large too, hopefully) is not. We should make posters saying stuff like “NG: We’re citizens, and you’re citizen soldiers; we should be friends!”

I genuinely do hope and believe that when the chips are really down at some point, if the National Guard or any active-duty unit is ordered to do something absolutely beyond the pale, they’d refuse the order and frag the person who gave it. I think that may be part of how we end up getting out of this shitshow. And yes, I do realize how deeply fucked it is that I’m basically banking on a mutiny by elements of the US Military as our final breakwater against fascism… but our civilian institutions are manifestly failing to meet the moment in any meaningful way.
