One Party Rule, Forever

Here it is. Forever.

Anyone who thinks there is some kind of a “ballot box” solution, I really need to hear how you think that’s going to work if some version of this passes. Consider also, several million new Turd World “citizens”, many in critical states- cause you KNOW that’s happening…Seriously, explain how we remain politically relevant without bloodshed. I want very specific solutions. I don’t want to hear platitudes about “We need to get out the vote”, “We need to win the war of ideas, because ours are better and if people only heard them…” “Democratic Republic…blah, blah”

This is pure, Third World Power grabbing. When it’s done, you will never see a Republican in the White House again and they will become at best a “back bencher” party in Congress with no power whatsoever. None. Zero.

Soap Box (De Platformed at even the micro level)

Ballot Box (Stolen and now, Rigged as a Matter of Law)

Tell me, where are we now?

If you can’t see it now, you’re the kind of person who will be asking what kind of shampoo they have in the free showers at the end of the train ride. You need to get right in every part of your life, RFN.

It seems to me that at some point, things are going to have to get violent to change. It’s like the bully on the playground who picks on you and makes your life hell. At some point you either snap and tear his face off without fear of consequence, or remain his pet punching bag. To me it seems simple. The political elites need to be sent a message to remind them that they work for the people, not the other way around. What does that message look like?

Then there’s this:

The White House raised eyebrows on Wednesday when it suddenly cut the feed of a virtual event after President Biden said he was “happy to take questions” from Democratic lawmakers.

Accompanied by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. and the House Democratic Caucus, Biden addressed lawmakers on the topics of COVID relief and the ongoing vaccine rollout. He closed his remarks by calling on Democrats to help “restore faith” in government.

He then appeared ready to take questions.

“I’d be happy to take questions if that’s what I’m supposed to do, Nance,” Biden told the speaker. “Whatever you want me to do.”

The feed ended seconds later, after a brief pause from the president.

I have this feeling his handlers didn’t want Sleepy Joe in public as he fumbled through questions.

Did I miss the State of the Union Address? No? Huh…The guy should literally be in a home, probably in a special care unit… If he wasn’t a piece of Communist filth, I’d feel sorry for him.

The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power, pure power. Orwell

My Grandad had a saying that seems appropriate- “We ain’t there yet, but I can damn sure see it from here”.

Pretty sure “there” is behind us…

And this is also why the attempted hit on McConnell through his wife.

Yes, Mitch is dirty and the IG should have prison-bitched him LONG ago… but he’s also a master of parliamentary dirty tricks standing in HR1’s way, and if he can be forced out Beshear gets to appoint a Donk or RINO placeholder. Which means the R’s have to elect a new Minority Leader, who won’t have the mastery of the Senate Rules arcana available to throw monkeywrenches in the works.

Don’t you just love how red states are “gerrymandering” but the F’d up districts in blue states to intentionally over balance Democrat influence is all good.

They are desperate to figure out how to rig the game before the get assholed in the midterms.

I am all for a fair open system, and if our side loses we lose. But “fair” is hard to agree on wit so much at stake. I’m looking for a good exit strategy. I got no kids, so call me an outlier, but voting with my feet is looking like a viable option.

I have believed for years that expecting to “change the system”, by working within the system, is an absurd notion.
The “system” is too broken.

Really feels that if any change for the better is to occur, it will be at the end of a gun.

I honestly think Trump was the closest we’ll ever get to “changing the system from within” since he was a complete outsider.

But I do think the second part of your post is accurate.

My thought EXACTLY when I saw that headline earlier today. They are pulling out ALL THE STOPS, literally, this is End Game stuff.

The wi-fi box. Again. :laugh:

If you’re really in UT…seems like you’re already about in a as good of a ‘vote with your feet’ area.
Unless you mean outside CONUS…
But I hear ya.

That won’t happen. The people will never rise up as long as they arent starving and are placated by bread and circuses.

People are easily distracted, even in a place like M4C where people are supposedly more “aware”. If you noticed there are 2, literally 2 different threads about some Tiger Woods car crash. This is how easily people are distracted by the news cycle.

Is that really an example of people being easily distracted or just people talking about things other than politics. Politics everywhere gets old fast.

According to Mao that’s where power comes from. Can’t disagree unfortunately.

I’ve never really understood this.

Politics IS LIFE.

From the damn time you get up in the morning every day until you die and are buried your entire LIFE is ordered around political decisions.

How much water does your toilet use? The toilet paper you use-the timber used to make it, where did it come from and how was it harvested? How about the chemicals in your air conditioning system? The amount of money you take home. What your children are taught in school. How much are the taxes on the gas you use to go to work? The wood used to build your house- how much does the inspection of it add to the cost? How many airbags does your car have and what about the backup camera and the bumper strength and that little light near the back roofline that tells morons your vehicle is stopped?- How much extra did that add to the cost? How long do you have to work to pay for that? The shoes you wear- did you buy them online and not pay sales tax? The carpet you walk on- what is it’s fire rating and again, how did that affect the cost of it? The apple you ate for lunch- what pesticides can be used to grow it, what labor force was used to harvest it, how many times was it inspected, how was the cost of it’s travel throughout the retail chain affected by fuel taxes? Paper (deforestation) or plastic (Plastic pollution) or Burlap grocery bags (Would you like a side of Covid with that)?

EVERY GODDAMN THING YOU DO, EVERY SINGLE DAY IS POLITICAL.

People who ignore this fact, I’m sorry, I can’t understand it. I really can’t. It’s why things are the way they are. People just “tune out”. How about instead of “tuning out” with sports and other bullshit, you get PISSED OFF about it and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. Then, maybe, you CAN tune out because the problem is solved- instead of ignored while you do mindless shit…

The only sport I ever really watched was football. That was conveniently taken care of a couple years ago when all the kneeling for the Anthem bullshit started. Of course it only got worse in 2020. Haven’t watched an NFL game in several years and don’t miss it.
