“Don’t die for your beliefs. Make a fascist die for theirs.” - someone on here
Its a cute slogan, but all the trigger-pullers appear to be hanging out on the Demolition Ranch Discord.
Jon Stewart would be put to death if Trump had his way. To quote Mort Goldman, “Save Jon Stewart, he’s our most important Jew!”
Jon getting serious is kinda scary and rightfully so. He’s worried like the rest of us but likely has a better idea of what’s coming should Trump win. He’s a smart dude.
The thing that really bugs me is that Trump has told everyone exactly what he’s going to do, but no one seems interested.
He’s been very clear that he’s not going to concede, and that he has legal challenges ready to go. The election isn’t going to be won or lost on votes in swing states, but who can provide the most pressure on officials in those setting states.
I have this sinking feeling that he’s going to be declared winner through corruption and manipulation, the dems will say “oh well fiddlesticks”, and the western world will start matching towards fascism.
As in, Kamala is talking about medical records and Trump is planning insurrection.
Just like the investigation into Russian interference, and all Trumps legal stuff. “Yeah well he’s guilty as sin but you know - what are you gonna do”.
This is the story that we need to be focusing on until election day. None of the other stunts matter. If anything this post should be pinned. We should keep our eye on the ball even if the media won’t.
Trump threatened to send the military and the national guard after people on the left and Democratic politicians. This is blatant and open fascism. In any other election Trump being openly fascist would be the October surprise. Everyone needs to see this.
He’s not even phrasing it as a threat, for him it’s just an “obvious solution” to a problem he made up. He doesn’t even see it as something serious so he doesn’t threaten us with it.
Which makes what he is saying even more scary. Imagine what is he NOT saying and that he thinks would be a threat? Fuck, as someone on the other side of the pond I hoped I could show my support to my fellow Americans but this will fuck us all in the end.
As we all fucking should.
And he’s quite right to point out that the media loves obsessing over the dumb shit (like Palmer’s penis and McDonald’s) and spends far less time running down real shit.
I respect that he points out that stuff too, but… Supply and demand, right?
Supply and demand has no place in serious journalism - that should be the domain of tabloids.
👆💯👆
I mean, yeah. He’s literally threatening to kill us all.
Don’t exaggerate. We dont know that he intends to kill us. Maybe the National Guard is only meant to maim or seriously injured us.
And it’s not all either. He’s only going to
killmaim the Democrats. And black people. And brown people. And LGBT people. And women. And non-Christians. So, you know, as long as you’re not in one of those groups, you’ll be totally fine. For now. But maybe don’t get too comfortable.Not women, republicans need them to cook, clean and produce children.
As long as they aren’t too mouthy and don’t get any ideas about autonomy. So, things like driving, having a credit card or a bank account…nah. And birth control or abortion? Don’t make me laugh.
So, just more than half the country, at least at first.
The Orange Turd is coming for anyone that stands against him.
Anyone see #UNTRUTH - the Psychology of Trumpism?
Oh, the guy that floated ingredient-to-bread ratio being more important than the election?
Get the fuck outta here.
Edit: This was the damn promo for his, then new, The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart podcast. I don’t have a sense of humor about trivializing this shit.
Just reading the article he doesn’t seem to be trivialising, rather the opposite. He more or less says this is something we should be paying attention to.
Are you unfamiliar with the concept of humor?
We’ll see how funny it is in 13 days.
I know this is all very stressful, but you do need to calm down.
