Uncrititcal support for calling in an orbital strike to Reddit’s servers (and why not take out AWS in the process)

      It’s cute when liberals think they’re clever and act snarky when in reality they would shrivel up and shit their pants if they came across a button that would give Trump and only Trump a greasy heart attack

    If the Civil War tv series was even close to plausible - there would be no map. The libs would fight hard. But they’d so so with the GOP against us. It’s better to get the best scraps that way.

    Okay but this actually makes me wonder: seeing as Biden is already overseeing a genocide in Gaza, why not just ban the Republican party or outright have Trump’s citizenship revoked? Fascist yes, but he’s already overseeing a genocide that’s killed around 30,000 people, and the libs are promising us that Trump becoming president is going to be the absolute worst thing ever, so just have his citizenship revoked, or better yet, ban the Republican party and force conservatives to do better.

      Yeah this right here is what I’ve been saying to liberals. If Republicans are such a threat, why not make it illegal to be one? Liberals think a society has to give fascists a fair shot at taking power or else…that’s also fascism? I don’t get what they want.

        They want to lose and then gracefully accept that defeat.

        It’s the ideal state for liberals because it allows them to maintain the moral high ground but without the drawback of being expected to actually do anything.

        That is, i think, what most of them believe and more or less how they would seriously articulate it.

      You see, the law doesn’t protect brown people on the other side of the planet. So genociding gazans is just a difference in opinion and nothing more. (Except if you have the wrong opinion, then you’re antisemitic)

      I looooove reporting libs on reddit for breaking their precious civility. I’ve gotten a decent amount of them banned, and even more comments deleted.

      I know that won’t stop fascism, but it pisses them off, and maybe one or two will self reflect and realize they’re just completely sucked into some sort of media bubble that has convinced them that Biden is actually doing super cool stuff behind the scenes.

      Americans really believe that the US military is the only thing between “civilisation and barbarism” don’t they? They really don’t understand that the US military is responsible for at least 90% of the “barbarism” of the last 75 years.

        nono, we are well aware that the ‘war on drugs’ has been our foreign policy to subvert and inject puppets into foreign states while culling specific demographics from gaining stability within our own nation by entrapping their members in for-profit prisons to act as slave labor… because what’s a little international and domestic turmoil if it means we can say we’re winning an unwinnable war, right?

      drones striking schools and town halls across America because “they’re hiding Antifa traitors”

      I wonder if there are any real world parallels to this. And if so, surely the poster would support the side opposed to bombing civilian buildings because there are claims that there are terrorists inside.

      lol, it’s too late for this scenario to destroy the world.

      North Korea already started a nuclear war and ended the world.

      Russia already started a nuclear war that ended the world.

      Iran already started a nuclear war and ended the world.

      Israel’s genocide of Gaza already started world war 3 and ended the world.

      Iraq used their WMDs and started world war 3 and ended the world.

      The doomsdays they’ve promised us for decades have already annihilated the world; it’s over, go home to the rubbles of your house and go to sleep already. Trump can’t do anything that all these doomsdays we’ve been promised haven’t already done.

    If this argument is legitimate, what would stop Biden from canceling the election and declaring himself president for life?

    The main thing stopping that is the democrat fetishization of norms because they’d rather the country be fascist than effectively wield power against fascists. Also for Biden “for life” would be, what, 6 months?

    The really funny thing is the answer to “Oh so Biden can just do whatever he wants to Trump then?” Is no because dems would immediatly impeach him to try to get brownie points from republicans.

    Libs are just conservatives in mindset, they support their party regardless of policy because it is blind loyalty and also to rub it onto their enemy.

    They can’t confront the present issues just like the conservatives so their only solution is for people to shut up.

    Trump as libs describe him, should be in jail. If Jan 6 was an insurrection and lib claims of an imminent dictatorship are true, then they should jail him and every other leader involved. Instead they arrested some nobodies, and say only vote can stop Trump.

    Its incredibly hypocritical on their part. You can’t claim to be trying to stop fascism and all you’re doing is promotions for the DNC - a corporate enity fir whom elections are a multi billion dollar business. Its all hollow.
