“And so I come full circle on this response and just want to encourage you with some substance that we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be,” he said.

It’s as true now as it was when Markos Moulitas wrote it in 2008: IOKIYAR

The terrifying thing is that a sizable portion of this country reads this list and thinks it sounds like a great idea.

Some of it. I don’t know that even a sizable portion of this country wants to raise prescription drug prices. I also think a very small percentage wants to get rid of no fault divorce or contraception. Even most Catholics are fine with contraception. And use it too.

Raising the retirement age? I’d guess that their sizable voting bloc in their 60s wouldn’t be good with that.

Honestly, I think the more people learn about this, the more they will find things they don’t like about it. Even Republicans.

Even Republicans

Yeah, but they mean all that for other people, not me!

“Learn” “Republicans” I think I found a problem with this plan.

I’m surprised this graphic doesn’t mention banning porn and jailing those who produce and distribute it (page 5). Even for non-porn consumers, when you remember that they’re trying to lump non-explicit LGBT media in as porn (for example), that becomes a pretty dangerous stance.

I would say there are a lot of cases creating precedent that this is free speech, but well…

Don’t count all of us in, funnies scene in Greenland was watching Orlando get taken out via asteroid hit and how am I going to find the IRL version funny if I’m dead for it?

On this. You and I 100% agree. Which should be a shock for you coming from someone you mistakenly labeled conservative. I’m just anti authoritarian, but very pro solidarity.

I’d like to get more involved with something, but not the SRA. Tried that and felt like it was not much more than burning $35 for the membership fees. I need something a little bit more substantial and a bit more cohesive than some discord channel.

i can’t speak for the US, but there are plenty of bad orgs out there, sadly.

i think its important to understand the theory behind it because it makes it easier to spot the good ones vs the bad ones vs the ones that won’t be effective.

When someone tells you you that they’re planning Night of the Long Knives, you should believe them.

Correction - you should believe them that such will happen when nobody else but them has knives and they are certain they won’t get a scratch while it’s happening. Until then they’ll be very afraid.

The dangerous part is that the fact that they are cowards may over time become more notable than the fact that they really want this.

Glad Project 2025 is becoming public knowledge, it’s not hyperbole, people really are going to die if Trump is re-elected. That’s not a threat, that’s an acknowledgement of what the GOP plans to do.

I remember when “Race war now?” was just an edgy 4chan meme… Better days, used to on the internet when someone was being racist it was a comedy routine mocking the absurdity of racism, nowadays… people actually mean that shit.

Sadly I remember the “Bugaloo” movement, because everything has to be a joke now, even repeating the Civil War…
