You're talking about the Four Boxes of Liberty. Soap Box, Ballot Box, Jury Box, Ammo Box. Soap and Jury have failed, and Ballot is hanging by a thread. I'm going to do all that I can to use the first three, because the fourth means ALL of us are lost.

Okay? So what should I do? What would appease you? What would "bring me to the correct side" or put me on your team?

No. I don't give a fuck that ** (( YOU )) ** imagine that I don't give a fuck about genocide. Big difference. Your perception of me and reality are two completely different things, only one of which has any effect upon my life.

Some people are just so wrapped up in their own bullshit that they're exactly like horses when the barn is on fire. They'll actively fight you when you try to pull them to safety. Personally, I'm waiting for them to sic their attack dogs on me, so I can blockenheimer all their followers.

When you are hanging over an abyss, the rope is frayed, and the gorge below is filled with crocodiles and piranha, insisting that you be rescued by a magical unicorn, instead of the dirty hand of a faulty person, is the height of stupidity and Darwinism.

Exquisitely beautiful way to illustrate their exact point. It's not that they're unbothered. They understand that they are NEXT if we don't have unity before the election. The problem is that *none* of us seem to retain that fire AFTER the election, when we can apply pressure without dying.

Yes, but he never tries to pretend he's not. He embraces it and literally looks the audience in the eye as though the 4th wall never existed, and expects you to understand that. You're there to laugh and jump right in, flinging it like a baboon on MDMA.

Remember my previous skeet thread about the US Military not shooting Americans if ordered to do so? That does NOT include the DHS. They will *absolutely* shoot you, and laugh maniacally while pulling the trigger. They are trump's brownshirts and damn proud of it.

No, he was installed by the US and the UK actually. Mohammad Mosaddegh was overthrown in 1954 after nationalizing the petroleum industry, and the Shah replaced him.

If things fly apart THAT bad, then we're just completely fucked. And when I say "we" I don't mean America, I mean the entire planet. So yeah. On my list of concerns, that one might be a sticky note that fell off the bottom of the list, and got batted under the couch by my cat.

a few assholes will always get through the filters. And once the assholes DO get filtered out, they usually end up in law enforcement. Because while military personnel are loyal to the Constitution and the American people, cops, most definitely, are *not.* So yeah. GOP 2025 using the military?

world's largest logistics company posing as a military. So let's break it down. Out of 400,000 active and reserve, the surveys show that just 2500 will actually pull a trigger. That's assuming they even have the guts to try, because there's plenty who stayed in to KILL those who might try / 5

Of the half that don't engage in active sabotage, 50% of them engage in discreet sabotage, such as "losing" orders, failing to update maps, neglecting to pass on information, misrouting supplies and so on. So now we're down to a tiny fraction of people who will be expected to operate the / 4

abandon their posts and go home. Mind you, this study doesn't include LE agencies like the FBI, NSA, CIA or State Department? But it's expected their attrition will be even higher. Of the 50% that remain, half of them stay to OPENLY SABOTAGE ANY EFFORTS at using force against US citizens. / 3

See, every decade or so, the Dept of Defense does a "vibe check" to see what would happen if the government ordered the military to use force against US citizens, and without fail, it has been universally BAD... ...for the government. Within 24 hours, 50% of all military personnel on land / 2

Of all the concerns about GOP 2025, there's one that I genuinely laugh about? This notion that trump will "order" the US military to take action against US citizens. That's genuinely hilarious. If trump tries, he's in for one Hell of a YUGE surprise, and he better have a damn good bunker. / 1

She's wrong about the ballot box being last. The Soap Box is first, the Ballot Box is second, and the Jury Box is third. The Soap and Jury Boxes have failed, and the Ballot is on shaky ground at best. Guess which box is the last.
