  1. The Branch Davidians stopped being a problem when Koresh died because pretty much all of them died with him. There's a chance that the GOP shifts back to something saner if Trump loses again or, more likely, when he finally dies. And there's a good chance nobody can really step into his shoes and politically organize the same forces that he did. But they're mainstream now. "Conservatism" is Trumpism and many of them want violence. They're not going to deradicalize. Our best hope is probably that a group of them further radicalizes as their ability to win elections shrinks, that they attempt a violent coup, and that they all get killed. Because the alternative is probably a very long campaign of "lone wolf" style terrorism that we all just live with.
  2. We're gonna be looking back at Snake Diggity as a prophet.
  3. Hey, I'm as surprised as you are. I think with he and Liz it has more to do with personal animosities than any real ideological problem with fascism.
  4. New York conservative Dem who thinks he got cancelled by the woke mob? This was inevitable as the sunrise.
  5. Lol, Jordan Peterson too. Oh noes, that's getting pretty close to Benny Shaps. I'd hate to see him arrested for being an unregistered foreign agent.
  6. Can't have a popular front against fascism without a lot of people who don't like each other allying together to defeat the fascists. This isn't really that hard to understand for anyone who hasn't suffered a very serious TBI.
  7. Your girl supported Assad gassing civilians. Get the fuck out of here with your nonsense.
  8. Can't wait for the media to completely fail in its responsibility to inform Americans that the GOP's plan is very obviously to use bullshit polls to justify a refusal to accept the loss and attempt to steal it again.
  9. Yes, that’s why I said you implied it.
  10. Man, washpark didn't exactly cover himself in glory in this thread did he?
  11. He's repeatedly implied that he doesn't think anyone should've been punished for 1/6. I don't know why you think he's acting in good faith here.
  12. I want y'all to know that I've always been right about everything. Tulsi Gabbard says she's joining the GOP at Trump rally in North Carolina.
  13. The Nate Cohn article a few days ago about how polls are weighting covered some of this, but this does a better job of explaining the effects of that weighting. Thanks for posting.
  14. Fuck that. That’s one definition of treason and it’s the one that applies in a court of law in the United States. But it also has a common meaning and attempting a violent fucking coup absolutely qualifies under it. He’s a traitor and he deserves a traitor’s death, regardless of whether he can be successfully prosecuted for treason as it’s defined in the constitution.
  15. I know, and Sydney is objectively correct that he's said worse about tons of people. But this one just hit a little different than most.
  16. The line about Guillen's funeral is one of those things where you think nothing the guy could do could possibly shock you and then you realize fuck, you're wrong about that again.
  17. C'mon man... The only thing he sees as "serious" about 1/6 is his serious sadness that it didn't succeed. Roughly 1/4 to 1/3rd of this country is proudly fascist. He's very clearly in that group.
  18. You idiots know you're getting trolled, right? He's openly saying he thinks 1/6 was cool and good and that this guy shouldn't have been punished: This is who he is. Do y'all think you're going to persuade him or something?
  19. Also, it sounds like the Houston rally will focus on abortion and the harm Texas' abortion laws have wreaked on women. That could help both statewide and nationally.
  20. And we just barely avoided a direct war with Iran (that Trump pretty clearly wants to get back to) thanks to... a pandemic breaking out.
  21. Since no Republicans will actually participate in this thread, I'll just speak for them. The extremely obvious real answer that Trump supporters have to this is "so that we never have to have competitive elections again."
