This photo of Brian McGinnis is going to be in museums and history books if we aren’t wiped out in nuclear fire.

@Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes What pisses me off even more is that Sen Sheehy stepped in “to assist” and broke the Marine’s hand. That guy should just try to avoid shooting his own dick off. His actions here make Sheehy an #enemyofthepeople
@lawyersgunsnmoney @hacks4pancakes Sheehy was not "helping." In the second place, the CapitolPolice don't need his fucking help. In the FIRST place, what he did is fucking assault and battery and should be charged as a crime after his resignation is demanded.
The jackass ASSAULTED A US MARINE IN DRESS UNIFORM IN THE CAPITOL
WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. FUCK. IS. WRONG. WITH. HIM.

@lawyersgunsnmoney @hacks4pancakes and what the actual fuck is wrong with US that every US military veteran isn't in the street right now WITH A RIFLE demanding that this war be stopped and Trump be removed from office.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH US

@Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes Yeah I agree on all counts. I’m not betting on MPD having the stones to do that because DC is occupied by the Regime, and they control the Mayor and MPD

@Wyatt_H_Knott @bweller @lawyersgunsnmoney @hacks4pancakes Maybe we gotta fight a big war every so often to remind ourselves how terrible war is.

@FeloniousPunk if that's the case, we should adopt the Macedonian policy of the supreme dictator going over the top first.

See, when I was in the military, I swore to defend the Constitution and obey lawful orders.
Not sure what insight weapons training would have given me. The military was four wasted years of my life.
At this point, I'm all out of any exqueezences of patriotic juices. I lived through six coups in various flypecked shitholes: Niger, Nigeria, Guatemala.
I just stopped believing.
We all should stop believing.
We can do better that these chumps.
But from what I've seen, mismanaged revolutions are out of the pan - into the fire. Not recommended.

@bweller @FeloniousPunk @Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes I am old as fuck and remember (as do many others on here) when Fascists were considered the definition of evil and ostracized. It has apparently been long enough for people to forget their atrocities. I *never* expected a revival like this and I’m very pissed off that we have to face them down again.

@tuban_muzuru @Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes Fair point. Our revolution was not particularly well managed but we were on our own soil. The French Revolution started out better, then Robespierre started whacking everyone. For the record “I do not advocate violent overthrow of the Government” How the Fascist cancer will be excised from us, I don’t know. But I expect it will be messy. Maybe the problem is that I do care

@lawyersgunsnmoney it's a real downer and the exact opposite of everything we taught in schools and claimed to stand for. Nothing more than rabid genocidal dogs now.
I'd rather be doing something to move forward, not be stuck trying to halt the backsliding.

@tuban_muzuru @Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes I don’t agree for a variety of reasons. Then again, I didn’t think Germany should have been reunified - just pastures, cows, horses and sheep.

@bweller @FeloniousPunk @Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes It is a downer and it is the opposite of what we’re taught. I never thought I’d be re-living Europe in the 1930s, but here we are. Many of us here on the platform, including yourself, saw the path we’re on. The Heritage/Fascists’ blitzkrieg to destroy democracy. I’ve said this before but I doubt I’ll be on this Earth when we get rid of the fuckers

@hacks4pancakes there's a big disinfo campaign against them on every other social media site right now and its pretty appalling
@morb@mastodon.social @hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange what's the propaganda spin being used to discredit this? I only saw the video itself, he's clearly right about that shit lol

@Wyatt_H_Knott @lawyersgunsnmoney @hacks4pancakes A professional standing army creates a culture that worships its own raw power. Democracy and rule of law are inconvenient accidents of history to such a mindset.
This is also why some leaders have proposed mandatory service for young adults. The idea is to dilute or counteract the power worship, and to spread the military know-how among all demographics.

@lawyersgunsnmoney Do you think McGinnis has a case against Sheehy for damages? Sure McGinnis was breaking some rules with what he was doing, and the officials who tried to remove him are probably protected because of that, but Sheehy never had the remit to step in. @Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes

The USA would be better served to revise our form of government, for it's the USA with the problem.

@tokyo_0 @Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes Hi, I think he has a
Civil case. IMO McGinnis isn’t going to get District of Columbia prosecutors or MPD. Sen Sheehy does not have the immunity from prosecution that the officers do. No question there was a battery and I think McGinnis can easily prove a tort claim -

@tasket @Wyatt_H_Knott @hacks4pancakes Countries tend to attack each other for land, resources, hubris so I think we need one. Civilian control of the military is IMO what we did to prevent junta’s. We elected a junta, so there is the failure.
I am in favor of universal service as you suggested but if there is anything that would galvanize opposition to the war, re-instituting the draft would be it. Some friends’ Dad’s were killed in Vietnam….
