This 500 word limit is killing me. . . I fixed it with the magic /s The ones I mentioned are capitalist. Actually capitalism can work but you gotta Wrap it in Duct Tape & keep it Gagged. Which was the basis for the economy we had in the time between WWII and the 70's. That & a congress that was working for the people along with "the Liberal Consensus" but all that is long gone. Need that economy back. It needed work but . . . .

i think A Minion is being sarcastic. speaking in MAGA terms to mock them

A Minion: you have to indicate sarcasm online. always

use "(/s)" after sarcastic sentences

the problem with sarcasm online is that without an indicator no one knows if you're being a serious or not

sometimes it can blow up in your face

Yet we almost didn't get into WWII because of folks like Lindbergh. That would have been a bad mistake.

The best way to know what is going on is to be where decisions are made & if they're wrong try to change them.

What everyone who goes to war knows don't get your ass shot off. "Never be in a Foxhole with anyone braver than yourself."

Hegseth is a walking death trap, he is the kind of leader that get all his troops killed.

That went away with critical thinking. Well unless it's talking about all the communist countries, Sweden, Norway, Finland & the commie left./S

We are of an era that actually were taught important things like truth, reality, consideration, manners.To treat each other with respect & dignity,
Good shot placement.8*)

Those things only lasted for a short while then were immediately stamped out by the Godly. It's why I live in Alaska

"There Are Decades Where Nothing Happens and Weeks Where Decades Happen"

wrongly attributed to Lenin

the earliest appearance of it seems to be by the author Adriaan Schade van Westrum

Lenin Said, 'There Are Decades Where Nothing Happens' and 'Weeks Where Decades Happen'?

The quote has appeared in social media posts and newspapers — and singer Billy Idol's memoir.

i will never poo poo the idea of fucking with the GOP

well there is something to be said for putting your honest foot forward so you can build something

your way has value, but it's more like guerilla warfare. rather than what we really need: actual political takeover

Regarding that letter, seems like their main point against switching for primary is you can’t switch until after the general, but so what? You can still vote for whomever you want on the ballot, right? I get how that may muck things up a bit for canvassing, soliciting donations, GOTV. Is that the real reason?

in states where you can vote in primaries outside your party, i encourage such sabotage and vandalism. but this is a sideshow. the main game should be declare your party and contribute

unfortunately, retreating into a cringe fantasy life is, if not the American dream, then at least the American past time.

revolution cosplayers suffer from main character syndrome and think it will be like a movie

and they believe, hilariously, that the factions will be ideologically rigorous

none of this excuses our current suffering

it means they should be *effective* about fixing it rather than retreating into a cringe fantasy life (hint: VOTE)

and revolution happens when people are hungry. there is hunger in the usa but we're far from general famine

They also seem to think it'll be just a jaunty weekend of bloodshed and then we all just roll over to whoever is on top after that. No, an actual revolution will take a decade of unspeakable horrors unfolding in their time. The rest of your life will be terrible. Your children's lives might be normal eventually. Only the grandchildren stand any chance of living better once that line is crossed.

What pisses me off is we could have had what they have. The basic economics was in place, people were beginning to do well, even business was making money. We fought for civil right race & sex, education expansion. The right has been fighting ever since FDR to gain total control & bring back the depression. They finally did it.

Peace

you still have the option of vandalism or sabotage through primary voting

in party or across party lines
