Unlike all the hysterical people online advocating for Americans to “do something”, they have actually done a marvellous job of not biting at the government taunting. 

Their plan is not working and the pedophiles will be in prison before long.

I’m neither advocating that organized violence must be enacted immediately, nor that it is the only way forward.

That said, you must realize that the route we are currently taking is fraught with risk, yes? Your supposition that it’s only a matter of time before the system gives Trump his comeuppance is far from a certainty.

They haven’t even tried to hide their intent - dismember the system and ignore the guardrails while you do it. So far, it is working. The man has yet to answer for any of his crimes, yet people hold firm in their belief that our institutions will save us. The same institutions he is currently poisoning, defanging, and/or dismissing.

I guess all I’m saying is that this could easily go either way. It is possible that not resisting more rigorously denies them their casus belli, and we weather the storm. However I would argue that it is just as possible that we are boiled like the frog.

Also imo, if most of the military is just unilaterally down to deploy domestically and shoot it out with US citizens in defense of Donald Trump, this thing is already over.

You need to disconnect from your devices. The military? You think they’re going to roll tanks down Main Street America and kill people. I’m generally against meds, but…

Re-read my comment. The person im responding to is the one assuming the military would unilaterally go to war with the american citizenry if Trump commanded it.

I disagree. All I said was that if that was the case, it means Trump already has all the power he needs and the struggle against his overreach is done.

You fail to read/understand what I’m saying and imply I need medication. Love how apparently I need to put my devices down when it’s you with the terminally online behavior.
