[โ] explodicle@local106.com 7 points 3 years ago (1 child) Even if he gets convicted, I wouldn't put it past a centrist Democrat to pardon him for unity or some bullshit. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] pinkdrunkenelephants@sopuli.xyz 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) How would the left take something like that? Like, say Georgia's pardon board is bribed and they pardon him. What happens then? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] explodicle@local106.com 5 points 3 years ago (1 child) I don't think the left would be very surprised, we'd just keep focusing on direct action. Centrist Democrats already DGAF if we're mad. Liberals would call it "unacceptable" for a few months, maybe do a couple protests, and then continue to vote for the people who got him pardoned. Nothing would change. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] pinkdrunkenelephants@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 years ago (1 child) Isn't anyone disturbed by that? Without extreme action from the left and no legal pushback from the Democrats, that would mean the right could do whatever the hell it wants without consequence, including genocide.
