1pooh4u Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 This is definitely starting to look worse than we thought. They were going to gas members of Congress regardless of who they were. The ones telling them where to go could’ve been Reps hiding in that very room not caring if they died too. Martyrs for their cause, maybe? Maybe they thought they’d be rescued? Idk, I don’t wanna say it possibly sounds like the same behaviors as suicide bombers, but yeah kinda feels similar? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobdog Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 4 hours ago, 1pooh4u said: Our military is getting radicalized by having nothing but Fox News blasting at them 24/7. That 1 in 5 of the rioters were military affiliated, while one 7% of Americans serve in the military is really something. How are we different than any other fundamentalist country. I’ll tell you....we aren’t. ☹️ Unfortunately, we get like one news story about the vets that showed up to clean up DC after the riots and like 20 about the retards that were out rioting. It certainly reinforces a long held notion that a certain type of individual idolizes the concept of military service at least in part because it ameliorates their problematic ideologies. But, coupled with the resistance to this radicalized agenda by top military brass coupled by the fact that none of the brigand "vets" were of color despite the fact that 43% of AF personnel are non white, I'd say that radicalization in the military is a problem within the ranks as opposed to within the leadership.

1pooh4u Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 (edited) It would be kinda cool if the left was just as fuckin crazy as the right (they are, just not in the same numbers as the right) McConnell purposely waited until the inauguration so they can use Trump not being in office anymore as an excuse to not convict. I would love to see the left storm the Capitol and pull McConnell out of the senate by his hair. Republicans are so disgustingly slimy and crooked that they would rather risk Trump running again and being successful next time (with his sedition) than risk losing voters by doing the right thing. I want legislation written right now, that will apply to Trump, and take his special perks away. This man is entitled to daily briefings, he should not have access to any of that.

ZoomBubba Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 The level of debasement that the GOP has sunk to in just four short years is pretty amazing. This is on top of hundreds of thousands of people choosing Marjorie Taylor Greene to be their House Rep. Before her, I thought Gohmert or Steven King was the lowest they could go. Quote In one post, from January 2019, Greene liked a comment that said "a bullet to the head would be quicker" to remove House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. In other posts, Greene liked comments about executing FBI agents who, in her eyes, were part of the "deep state" working against Trump. In one Facebook post from April 2018, Greene wrote conspiratorially about the Iran Deal, one of former President Barack Obama's signature foreign policy achievements. A commenter asked Greene, "Now do we get to hang them ?? Meaning H & O ???," referring to Obama and Hillary Clinton. Greene replied, "Stage is being set. Players are being put in place. We must be patient. This must be done perfectly or liberal judges would let them off." After CNN reached out to Greene, her personal Twitter account posted a statement in which she did not deny that she liked posts and replied to comments but claimed that many people have run her Facebook page. https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/26/politics/marjorie-taylor-greene-democrats-violence/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomBubba Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 Just now, SwimModSponges said: There will absolutely be further coup attempts. I doubt it, at least not from the MAGA crowd. Trump's final days pretty much killed it. He pretty much dropped them like a sack full of rocks to protect himself from future prosecution and lawsuits resulting from the riot he started. Look at what happened on the day they were supposed to turn out at all the state capitals (ARMED) ... zero. They're done and demoralized. I doubt Trump will be able to reignite the flames and the rest of the Republicans are trying to ride on his fumes ... but they won't be getting near as far. The whole culture war thing only works so long before it becomes evident that there has been nothing of substance done. It may not mean that Democrats are going to sweep GOP strongholds, but the most extreme elements are going to find themselves eventually fall to primary challengers when people get tired of talk and want results. The GOP is not going to have a good 2022 despite mid-terms usually being rough. Unless Biden majorly fucks up something on the scale of Trump, his policies are probably going to be pretty popular. What are the GOP going to do in reaction to that? Probably scream socialism and conspiracy theories again, marching out the bloated spectacle that Trump will be. If Trump family members run like they threaten to, it's going to be a major disaster in the general election for them. Right now it looks like McConnell is fine with sacrificing party seats in the senate in order to keep Trump voters happy. He's unenthusiastically taken a double barrel shotgun and shot himself in the foot in order to protect an ex-president who is going to become more and more unpopular as time goes on and more of his personal dealings come to light. On the other hand, Trump will continue to be a great tool for Democrats as they mount challenges to crackpots like Ron Johnson and whoever wins the Senate primaries in Pennsylvania and North Carolina. From the sound of it, Arizona already looks lost since the most likely candidate is even worse than McSally (chemtrail Kelli Ward). Georgia may be close, but Warnock will have the advantage of being an incumbent and better reflecting the changing attitude and demographics of that state. Anyway, the people you're worried out have been abandoned by their savior. They're trying to cope with this new reality where they realize that Trump was never going to stick his neck out for them. They'll either drift back to the dark places of the internet or (like most people who embrace internet extremism) quietly change their politics to fall within what's considered mainstream, particularly if they go out and get lives. Part of the reason we may have had the riot is due to all the people with nothing to do but hang out at home and warp their reality because of COVID. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of times I accuse you of hyperbole, but in this instance I think you’re being realistic. A lot of the civilians involved seem to be getting hit with the lesser charges, and it seems no politicians will be held accountable at all. No one is getting in trouble for their tweets prior to the 6th, tours given the day before, or the live tweets of certain people’s locations during the siege. Getting away with any of these things is a recipe for disaster. They can just be more organized next time. The National guard and high security won’t be in DC forever. It’s a huge mistake this bullshit notion that the electors has to be objected to because the people needed to be heard, but somehow that does not apply to convicting a former President of sedition. Do they really want us to buy this “Trump is a private citizen now we don’t have jurisdiction” shit they’re trying to peddle. That the only way to move forward and unite as a nation is by holding no one accountable? Everyone gets a mulligan? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
