Maybe harder than this thought for many, is the fear of speaking out locally, such as the local school board or city council, being "booed" or ostracized by some, and living with having taken a stand in some small way. Saying that school should not be a place where families fear ICE. Just that.

If Musk is able to follow through on his scheme to crash the economy in order to devalue the dollar, then we will see global chaos and all my sources of income could disappear in a heartbeat. I'm older and lived through protests from the 60's. I will stand against tyranny. We are safer in numbers

Self preservation does demand resistance. Every cent people have in savings will be at risk, business will fold, jobs lost. Less certain about the stock market, but the point is that all of that could evaporate in an instant. Can you imagine if the majority of the country is suddenly destitute?

Can you explain why devaluing affects savings and if anything can be done in advance to safeguard savings?
dec 13, 2024, 4:15 am • 0 0 • view
All the money in your bank accounts are based on the dollar. If the dollar is devalued, it becomes worthless. The scene in "It's A Wonderful Life" (old Christmas movie) where rich Mr. Potter will pay people pennies on the dollar for their savings so that he can take over the bank describes it well.

The Heritage Foundation wants to create the same kind of economy without safeguards that led to the stock market crash of 1929 and the Great Depression. But the global economy is based on the dollar, so this will be worse because the entire world will be in chaos.

Some people are trying to stock up on necessities right now, but there's not much you can do if everything crashes. The best thing to do is to get your congressional representatives and your state and local representatives to stand up for the country and prevent it from happening. Get loud now.

They may not need to lie much; just say they are in charge and cleaning up what the nasty Dems left behind. It's not like they have to justify their actions to their supporters. They get the support anyway.

That's been their playbook for sure. But if people suddenly don't have access to money, that might not work as well. I read years ago that they were warned about the ever-increasing tyranny, because people will only take so much. If MAGA ever turns against them, it will get violent.
dec 13, 2024, 2:54 am • 7 1 • view
So far people haven't had to absorb any tyranny. It might be educational to watch how much they will absorb before turning against the power in place, but I'm not that interested in what it may take to do that. I will be in survival mode.

We have 5x more citizens incarcerated than the rest of the world combined. Fascism has been fully absorbed over the last 60 years. You can be put in prison for life without a criminal complaint. Today. Because something was “discovered” in your vehicle. That’s a good thing right?

I did too. Marched on Washington. Rooftop police had rifles pointed at us. I was young, idealistic & strong then. I would probably trip, fall & get trampled if I tried to do it again now.

The F’ing Grifter is a demented, stupid, mentally sick, psychotic cretin. Our best outcome is that he and his flawed, criminal, misfit accomplices are incapable of cohesive action. We must band together to create chaos, mayhem, and throw sand in the gears at every opportunity.

The problem is it’s not just the one grifter. It’s the entire Republican party. The GOP has decided on the avenue as what they like. That they are willing to see the whole countries systems torn apart for fun and their profit.

Biden has immunity. With it he needs to suspend part of the Constitution, arrest Federalists on SCOTUS, The entire incoming administration, and DENATIONALIZE them by presidential order. He then sends them to Gitmo with no permission to communicate with anybody for 8 years.

Lincoln suspended and ignored parts of the Constitution to win the Civil War. Emancipation Proclamation was totally unconstitutional as was suspension of Habeas Corpus. Biden must do the same or the Union is lost.
