In a stunning admission, Leavitt told Bartiromo that mandatory conscription – not seen since the Vietnam War – had not been ruled out by her boss.

    It’s qanon manifest. “Trust the plan” and all liberals are traitors has become literally just the GOP platform at this point.

        It’s horrifying isn’t it?

        I’m torn between wanting full revolution and worrying if that scenario will only cause more death and suffering in the long run…

        I worry that anything short of systemic change to the US’s political and economic systems will simply reset the clock and we will be right back here again before we know it.

        At this point I’m practically an anarchist. Systems of power seem to only beget suffering and exploitation. I don’t know what the answer is…but it’s not this…

          I’m going to get a metric fuckton of down votes for this, BUT “revolution” will never ever ever happen in the United States. The vast majority of Americans are simply too wrapped up in themselves to give a shit.

            I can’t really disagree, but I also can’t give up hope that said turdwafflers might, for lack of a better term…wake up to the reality of what the US has become.

            I know we have a long long way to go, but many of the “oh I really don’t follow politics” people I know have started changing their tune after the shit show that was and is ICE I’m MN.

            That said, I’m from MN so I can’t speak to how it feels on the ground in other states.
