These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,… whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.

    Here’s the problem with that, though. It’s not going to be like there will be roving goon squads going from door to door snatching away your wives and daughters or anything. Even the MAGA-heads are just barely clever enough not to form themselves into any kind of entity that you could physically fight.

    Instead, they’re going to chip away at everybody with asinine laws and legislation, selective enforcement and remote harassment, by filing mountains of frivolous lawsuits, etc. They’ll seize property. They’ll get you fired from your job. They’ll kick you off of your health insurance and freeze your bank accounts. Those responsible are never going to actually expose themselves in any capacity in which they can get got, because they’re cowards; they’re going to hide behind their desks and layers of security and fences and metal detectors and cops and the secret service. If it turns to outright violence vis-a-vis war in our own cities, it would be monumentally stupid for them to send troops marching down the street, and they won’t. They’ll just remotely bombard an entire city block and blame all the collateral damage on “leftists” or “wokeism” or whatever. And idiots will believe it, and then blame the victims.

    “That’s ridiculous,” you say. “The government would never bomb anyone on US soil.”

    You want to bet?

      Operation MOVE

      The police literally fire bombed American children in an American home

      I think everything you said is correct but you are forgetting that Trump said he will give immunity to all police. That means that police can now break the law, they can rape and kill you with immunity. You don’t think they’re going to use this to their advantage?

      I don’t know if you’ve known any leadership in policing, but they are bloodthirsty. My sister’s biological father is a recent retiree from the NYPD as a captain. You would not believe the stories I’ve heard in the conversations I’ve overheard him have with his officers. I’ve actually recorded some of them just in case. Many of them seriously want a reason to kill someone and get away with it.
