    They are cowards after all. It’s time we start hunting MAGA boomers and beating them in the streets.

      …beating them in the ballot booth.

      That’s what you meant, right?

        I mean… I agree violence isn’t the answer, but neither is the ballot booth. We did that in 2020 and it changed absolutely nothing about them.

        I kinda think they’re a lost cause as far as external influence. They need to “find the plot” again on their own because to them everything that confronts their beliefs are just “communist lies. Fake news. Liberal blah blah blah…”

          Oh, definitely. Most of them are so thoroughly brainwashed by a steady, decades-long diet of objectively, factually incorrect garbage spewed by the Fox infotainment channel (I refuse to call it “news”), it would take professional deprogramming to break them out.

          Every time reality intrudes on their fantasies - Hillary doesn’t get indicted, COVID-19 doesn’t vanish in the spring, the “storm” doesn’t manifest, JFK doesn’t come back from the dead, Trump actually leaves the White House, etc. - it leaves them in a state of shock, followed by the irresistible urge to double down even harder.

          You don’t bring people back from that, at least not en masse. You just consistently, continuously beat them during elections, depriving them of their ability to force their bizarre worldviews on others.

          And, bluntly, you wait for them to die off. They catch COVID-19 at high rates, most of them are boomers, and because they’re dying faster than the national average, the Republican party is actually shrinking. The oldest boomers are approaching 80, and it won’t be long before we start seeing some serious demographic shifts because of that.

          You need to be in jail just like every other lunatic using social media to radicalize people into commiting violent acts.

            It is morally okay to punch fascists.

              I don’t think that word means what you think it means.

                Typically you point out the word when you say the line.

                Are you saying that violence should be met with non-violence? Are you saying that these particular stochastic terrorists are not fascists? Are you saying punching is an inadequate measure to deal with fascists?

                Why, feel free to explain yourself, lest you look foolish.

            Cry some more GOP voters. Go beat women like the people you vote for.

              First of all I am not American. Secondly what does political affiliation have to do with believing people who call for this level of violence need to be imprisoned.

              And just to piss you, I actively support a real life socialist in my country and I am proud of that.

                Come to America and see them police murder people in the streets. It may change your worldview on the facism we have to live in. Also good for you. Keep supporting them. We need that too.

                    Can I pay to sleep under you’re house instead of living in this shithole?
