none of them ends with the word autogolpe 🤷 also my motivations are rooted in wanting people to be aware of how perilous the current moment is. I know there are plenty of people with very difficult lives who are apathetic. I know there are people who simply don't pay attention. It is time for 🚨
which is why you offer no conclusions for actions from your "analysis", huh
What do you mean? I was describing the present moment, not issuing guidance on what people should do Personally I've ensured passports are current for me and my family, learned how to use various fire arms, bought ballistic helmets and vests, have moved a big chunk of my rainy day fund to cash,
I've been engaging with local political & public interest groups, I'm staying informed and I've been trying not to go crazy with the cognitive dissonance of everything looking fine while knowing that things could go horribly wrong quickly and the longer it takes the more entrenched the admin becomes
I gently suggest that you have gone a little bit... well, crazy's a harsh word, but you're complying in advance a bit
In what way am I complying in advance? I feel you don't understand what that means
Well, let's go back to the beginning. You were arguing that you knew better than Jodi Ernst that there will be no free elections in 2026. If you wanted to drive down turnout to elections so that MAGA could win fair and square, that's one way you could do it
Woah woah woah. Wtf are you talking about? I was explaining why some people believe that the 2026 elections are going to be in some way perverted by Trump. Also that wouldn't be complying in advance that would be actively trying to boost the GOP through reverse psychology or something. Complying
In advance, which I believe is a term coined by Timothy Snyder who I highly recommend reading as a foremost expert in authoritarian governments, means surrendering to trump instead of fighting. The law firms settling after the blatantly illegal EOs, News papers firing anti trump staff is another etc
