Fuck around and find out, fash. We'll stomp you right back down into the gutters you sprang from.
Or, translated into fascist-speak, if we constantly accuse you of shit we can never prove, even in a court of law.
We DID that, you chucklefuck. Your mob of troglodytes stormed the goddamned Capitol to interfere with that process, too. So maybe sit this one out?
Oh Dave. Have you seen the people who come to these rallies? Or protest at local school board meetings? Have you heard what they say in online discussion forums? Have you seen the transcripts of their conversations leading up to the insurrection? Your supporters are practically salivating over the prospect.
Which is exactly why SCOTUS is now involved. Because a mob of Republicans undermined a free and fair election. The lack of self-awareness in these dolts is absolutely astounding.
I think there's a lot of talk, but not a lot of will. To be clear, I think there's still a real threat, but it's probably more in escalating stochastic terrorism rather than a full-out armed conflict.
I think we are equally close to actual civil war as we are to actually eating the rich. Lots of talk, lots of wanting someone else to do it.
I call absolute bullshit fucking shit. Those fucking gop fascists have been calling for a civil war since Obama was in office.
Exactly. They need to put up or fucking shut up at this point.
Looking at the rhetoric, this could be a cue to get ready for political violence, or it could be a prediction that sadly there will be violence- and that's a textbook example of plausibly-deniable stochastic terrorism
"The South will rise again!"
"And we'll burn it the fuck down again."
