Seems like he's consolidating the military into red states. Blue states need to pay attention and come up with a plan to combat it. Love how the billionaires are using us as their soldiers and we think the enemy is each other.

They have the option to activate half their troops to defend Illinois citizens and the rest to Texas to defend children being murdered in schools.
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah i get it, but by not having a response, he has military from another state bullying his citizens. Is he just going to take it? Or maybe he can deploy his to texas to combat the school shootings there? Or to Louisiana to combat the murders?
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
Don't wait for someone else to end this. If you want to start a group to combat this, there's tools in my website. You can also support the groups on this site or in my starter pack who are already working on pieces of it. I'm trying to start up a group in my area. stop-oligarchy.org
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
He could deploy his guard to defend his citizens from an invasion from another state?
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
When we have autocracy taken care of, it might be good to put in a law ending this. At least at the state level.

BEAUTIFUL. MORE OF THIS PLEASE. We need mobile billboards with messages in red cities as well. Some sort of billboard. We need to reach these people somehow. I've watched 2 videos so far where people just read a book about different topics and left MAGA. Simple information may be all it takes.

AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
The problem is that in 2027, the worst parts of the big ugly bill come into play. This was timed on purpose so that if dems are in charge, they will take the blame and pay for it in 2028. That's why they have to get ahead of this and control the messaging in 2027 so trump is blamed instead

AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
That's the question. If dems take the fall, republicans will likely take 2028, if that happens. But i also shudder to think what republicans will do if they win, particularly if 2028 doesn't have an election. So it may be worth fighting for, just in case, but start messaging heavy around 2027

Meta consists of Facebook, Instagram, and Threads, to name a few companies. We should be boycotting ALL of them, save for the media and people we need to sh*tpost or post the truth on there. Facebook is how the dictators took over the Phillipines and maintain control today. Let's fix this.

I understand. And i appreciate his company and what it does. But this is a for-profit business. Not a charity. It's a good business model. It's also a good business model to make sure his customers aren't being deported, detained, put out of a job, and having their currency devalued
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
He didn't donate anything. This is a FOR-PROFIT business. He's just taking a smaller profit margin. This is a nice company. This is still a self- congratulating ad. I just donated to Gavin. Again. He, the billionaire, has said multiple times he WON'T donate to either side, other than words
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
His company -- and this is a for-profit business, this is not money out of his pocket, is a worthy company. But he's congratulating himself on coming up with a good business model Meanwhile, he's one of the billionaires sitting on the sidelines, not donating to anything to help us keep our rights
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
So, an ad. Hopefully he'll donate that $1,680 difference to groups fighting his friends in the oligarchy. If he promises to do that, then I'm okay with self-agrandizement

Democrats need a plan to combat the provisions in the big beautiful bill that come into effect in 2027. They will take the fall and Republicans will win in 2028. Republicans also will have a plan if they win in 2027, so dems need to be ready for that as well

Assuming there IS a 2028 election, Thomas and Alito will work with the others to block anything the dem president does. So the first thing the president should do is declare an emergency and an executive order that the Supreme Court needs to be replaced immediately and term limits created.

Unfortunately it appears the military is following his orders, constitutional or not. If they are upset, they can call the GI Rights Hotline. If they're not, well, they're one of them.
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah I'm really on the fence about this. They definitely have a plan this time. I'm guessing they have a plan for if the dems win AND if they don't. I suspect if they don't win, they'll steamroll through even more heinous legislation, while they can. We need a blue project 2025 and fast.
AskQuestionsFirst (@askquestionsfirst.bsky.social) reply parent
Yeah they have a very different information pipeline than we have. We'll need to find a way to break in or disrupt their pipeline, and then have an effective message when we get in

Yeah, i think part of that was because the methods red uses to consume media was tainting everything against biden. We definitely need a different, creative plan this time around.
