Ignoring politics wasn’t the badge of honor you thought it was. 

Badge of honor? Life and death for you, huh?

How can someone take that video seriously? 

"sources within the federal government" sources

"taking over the district by force" force?

"what these federal government insiders said" insiders

"reports suggest" reports

"corporate controlled areas governed by what they call CEO Kings" 😆 

"I know it sounds crazy and conspiritorial..." Yeah... 

"A month ago, my sources told me..." sources

"give DC to Peter Thiel" He's richer!

"Those who predicted the DC takeover said it won't stop here" those. Next stop, District of the Moon.

"take over territories" What? Territories? Leave St. Thomas alone!

"Their STATED intention is to make the government obsolete to the power of billionaires" source? Was it sources, insiders, reports, sources or those. Maybe a 3 letter agency.

"make us live in areas controlled by Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg" Free delivery and boomers. Pass.

Do you have an opinion on whether it is appropriate for the president to federalize the policing of Washington DC  given the facts of the current levels of crime and homelessness and if yes can you give a reasoned explanation of your opinion?

I’m a white, male, property owner. Financially, if I’m fucked, we are all fucked. But, Ii have children setting out in the world (one of whom has been kicked in the stomach by cuts to research universities) and I rage that this country is not as free as when I was their age. Moreover, I love my country and the values it claims to honor.

Experience. Once upon a time, fools scoffed at the notion of a US president seeking a third term. Today, only the most obtuse fools believe that isn't tfg’s plan.

Correctly predicting the Feds would take over DC. You think she pulled that out of her ass, like RFK’s so called research studies?

force?

How do you think the FBI and the NG assert their will?

Were you paying attention, you’d know about Curtis Yarwin and his influence on Peter Thiel, tfg, and Project 2025. You are reinforcing my post, but don’t know it. Yarwin has written about this monarch scheme and has been described both as the architect of the New Right and Peter Thiel’s guru.

You ought to know Thiel has enough influence over tfg to handpick Vance as VP.

Again, people who perform their civic duty to educate themselves on what their elected officials are doing know the correct answer is Chicago, LA, and NYC. How do we know? We heard those exact words from tfg’s mouth.

I think she meant the cities. But, are you so cocooned that you are unaware of the president’s public musings about taking over Iceland, or making Canada the 51st state?

Your guess is as good as mine. Oh, wait, no it isn’t. To whit: I refer you to the writings of Curtis Yarwin.

Unilaterally, you won’t be able to pass. Nor will my kids. On their behalf, I will add a fuck you.

I agree that random fly-by-night twitter tik tok hot takes shouldn't be part of the discussion.  It distracts from what is actually happening - that our current POTUS is using the military against a civilian population for political gain with false and manufactured justification.  It makes me ponder on what happened to the folks worried about overuse of federal powers or the folks behind no gestapo in bastropo. 

Yeah, shit's bad enough without making shit up.  The rationals need to adopt some of the right's tactics, but conspiracy theories aren't one of them.  I don't think.

Maybe it's a way to reach the idiots.

Edited to say deflection does no good when billionaires have taken aim at dismantling our Republic. Sure, it’s the NYT, absolutely, those folks aren’t conservative. Irrelevant to the issue of the Federal government taking over cities with a monarchist long game, and aided by those who think politics is a nuisance that is beneath them.

I won't watch tiktok political shit on general principle, but assuming nate's quotes are accurate that's not conspiracy theories, that's all things the silicon valley bros who run most of the GOP these days have all said they want to do. It's bog standard Curtis Yarvin shit. And it aligns with the freedom cities proposed by project 2025 that they're actively planning right now.

This is just performative bullshit to get people to stop talking about what a fucking piece of shit pedo he is.

Parking military at the Mall? Take pictures, please. Show them on the news, please. Write articles about it. Lots of articles!

Now you have bullshit magats arguing about the merits of "taking" over a US city and not looking in the mirror questioning being a piece of shit supporting a piece of shit.

It's definitely meant to distract, but it's also far more than performative. They're laying the groundwork for full martial law if they think they need it next election. Nobody of substance in the gop has the balls to push back on clearly fascist bullshit because it's their team. Even if purely performative, the gop is going with it, and their voters aren't concerned. We are fucked as a country if we can't get get some new voters to step up and vote against this because nobody is jumping ship at this point on the other side.

Maybe, maybe not. This admin deployed national guard to LA during the ICE protest. They didn't do shit other than sleep in hallways, find things to eat and drink, and pose for pictures.

The military parking their trucks en force around the National Mall is nothing more than a photo op to get his dipshit base all fired up again. The Mall is one of the safest places in America. Now you have dipshit magats on here arguing for this shit. They don't dare poke their heads in the Epstein thread. He's got dipshit magats on the attack again. Mission accomplished.

 

edit: This administration desperately needs to control the narrative. With Epstein, they were on a no win, endless losing defense. Now they are on the attack again. Look at the magat rats on this thread who came to the surface again.

This administration confuses the aesthetics of oppression with actual oppression.  That's to our benefit, but there's no guarantee they don't figure it out. But for now all they're really doing is pissing off all the NG guys who have to put up with this shit, which makes them less likely to go along with actual oppression in the future.
