I’m starting to struggle with my love of football (and sports in general), as they have become the opiate of the masses while we as a nation are numb to the fascist takeover of our country. 
 

As long as people have their NFL, that’s all they can be bothered with. It has completely taken over the dumbass populace and the oligarchs know it. By the time the season is over, project 2025 will be mostly complete or in motion. And many people will just be blissfully awaiting the next season.

Man, I'm so discouraged yall

It gets better. No, not the country, this is merely -1930 on the nazi timeline. I mean how you handle living in dark times.

I mourned the death of this country in November. I went through the 5 stages of grief and into acceptance sometime before Christmas. You need to realize it’s over to begin the grieving process.

Then you can think more clearly about what is best for you and yours. You’ll start greeting each new low with a shrug rather than rage or tears. If you need to plan or take action, like our brothers and sisters in at risk demos, you can.

Until you grieve the USA you’re gonna remain in vapor lock. Do yourself a favor and let go of all hope of a peaceful return to the before times.

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON

 

 

This is simultaneously stupid, evil, and completely expected. I’m sorry @troph if you’re still around.  Look out for yourself.

Quote

“They are cynically targeting trans people because the shooter’s lover was trans,” one senior intelligence official tells me. “The administration has convinced itself that the Charlie Kirk murder exposes some dark conspiracy.”

The senior official explains that there is no process per se for dealing with trans people as a “threat group,” but feels that trans individuals will be increasingly targeted under the banner of “violent extremism.”

Under the plan being discussed, the FBI would treat transgender suspects as a subset of the Bureau’s new threat category, “Nihilistic Violent Extremists” (NVEs).

I have a real simple question for the MAGAs.  And show you have some balls and actually answer it now.

If Trump suspends all or part of the 2026 midterm elections, and/or the 2028 presidential election, will you (a) be fine with it, (b) say you're not fine with it, but still support the admin, or (c) conclude that's out-of-bounds, and fully oppose the move, including no longer supporting the administration that ended elections in America?

It's actually important that you go on the record, and you know it is.....because we're rapidly moving to the point where that action is more likely than not to take place.

i would rather he suspend in 2026 than have "free and fair" elections only to find out that somehow the gop took 300+ seats.

Fair.  And honestly, that would be more transparent than the use of government forces to suppress voters in Dem areas.

No, this is fine.

President Trump on Thursday floated revoking TV broadcast licenses for networks that cover him negatively, a day after ABC's indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel.

"They give me only bad publicity or press," the president said of the broadcast networks on the flight back from London. "I mean, they're getting a license. I would think maybe their license should be taken away. It will be up to Brendan Carr," who is the chairman of the Federal Communications Commission.

On Wednesday, ABC yanked Kimmel's late-night talk show over a monologue comment about the suspect in Charlie Kirk's assassination, hours after Carr had told right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson that Kimmel's comments were "a very, very serious issue right now for Disney," which owns ABC. Kimmel had said "the MAGA gang" was trying to portray Kirk's killer as "anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."

"We can do this the easy way or the hard way," Carr said. "These companies can find ways to take action on Kimmel, or there is going to be additional work for the FCC ahead." 

In a social media post Wednesday night, the president praised ABC for the decision, and said the other network late-night comedians, NBC's Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers, should also be off the air. CBS News has reached out to NBC News for comment. 

 
The video player is currently playing an ad.

Mr. Trump told reporters on Air Force One, "If you go back, I guess they haven't had a conservative on in years or something, somebody said, but when you go back and take a look, all they do is hit Trump," Mr. Trump said. "They're licensed. They're not allowed to do that." 

The FCC, an independent agency, issues eight-year licenses to individual broadcast stations, many of which are owned and operated by television networks. On its website, the FCC says the "First Amendment and the Communications Act expressly prohibit the Commission from censoring broadcast matter." It also states that the commission's role in overseeing content on the air waves "is very limited." 

The president praised Carr, who's being criticized by some conservatives who say he went too far in pressuring ABC. 

"I think Brendan Carr is doing a great job," the president told reporters. 

 
 

It's not the first time Mr. Trump has floated canceling broadcast licenses.  

 

Last month, the president said NBC and ABC "give me 97% BAD STORIES," and he would be "totally in favor" of revoking their FCC licenses. 


It’s almost as if appeasement isn’t the best strategy when it comes to authoritarians.

Now who could see that coming?

Well look at the bright side - there's a non-zero chance that this is the last football season that anyone will ever give a shit about!

This has troubled me for quite some time.  Perhaps not so much the distraction of it, but the massive amounts of economic "energy" that go into sports of all kinds.  And that results from the people's apparent need to be sedated or distracted.

For a long time, I could pretend that college sports was different.

Stay out of the streets on October 18 during the No Kings rallies. Id rather see a bunch of dumbass maga slapping themselves on the back making fun of poor attendance than watch a bunch of maga celebrate some actually competant Kyle Rittenhouses when they slaughter "violent rioters". Or maybe the US military this time instead of some teenage idiot.

It is time to take the resistance underground. No more arguing with your chud friends. Every time a chud loses an argument, they double down and sink themselves deeper into the rabbit hole shopping for "facts".

Tempted to neg this post.  Fuck that.  Show up while you still can.

Cool story time. My second cousin — I think of him as an uncle — since he’s only a few years younger than my parents — was a Marine helicopter pilot for 20 years. He spent some of that time flying Marine 1 and 2 and got to fly Reagan or Bush I a couple of times.

We had posters in the Harris/Walz thread talking about how it was a brilliant move to "shore up the base".  All the heavy lifting had been done so time to get the base aligned and cruise to victory.  Fucking dumbasses.  You could feel the energy leave the campaign as soon as she did that "Call me Dipshit" podcast.

They'll apply the same diligent analysis they use to make sure they're only rounding up raping and murdering brown people to deport or put in concentration camps.
