So much for "state's rights."

    Fascists are never to be taken seriously when they say that they're very worried about protecting anything.

    Time for the Sartre quote:

    Never believe that anti-Semites fascists are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites fascists have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past."

    Irony & Stephen being an arch-ghoul notwithstanding, federal law does supercede state law (Art 6 Sec 2). Like, Nebraska couldn't just legalize murder. They could stop enforcing that law, but it'd still be illegal and the federal gov't could take action.

    A 30+ felon who tried to overthrow the government, and stole enough classified docs to be imprisoned for millennia, is the president.

    There is no "federal law". There is only a fascist dictatorship — a kakistocracy with nothing but the illusion of authority — and the millions of people who let this failed-state clown show continue.

    Like, I am genuinely baffled that in the most heavily armed county on Earth, with hundreds of thousands of veterans with PTSD, shat on for decades... How is the attempted murder of the people in charge not a daily occurrence? Shit's wild yo!

    Nice, if there's ever a democratic president again, let's use that precedent to completely fuck Texas and the other theocracies when they try to make bible shit into law again

    I love how the liberals dreams of "revenge" are of not allowing others to be oppressed by some fucked up law.

    I mean. I get it. Don't get me wrong. But if the dream of liberals in power is just "things aren't getting much worse for awhile" I really think we need to reprioritize.

    My idea of left seizing power and being "authoritarian" is enacting universal healthcare, high speed rail, billionaires in jail, ending garbage AI waste, and much more material actions.

    If our idea is just to "stick it" to some racist people in Texas I think we need to rethink that plan. I want those racist people in Texas to have all of the things above too. I want the material conditions to improve for everyone because I know that that is what helps to end these manufactured divisions of race, gender, or religion.

    Our goals can't be to just play whackamole with fucked up laws in red states.

    Easy to sound like a big man when you're shouting from behind a few hundred marines.

    But that's sort of the crux of the issue. Miller has the Miller-tary at his beck and call while Mayor Bass will be lucky if half her LAPD don't turn and open fire on her because they say they smelled weed. The folks with the guns seem absolutely gleeful in stomping their boots on the necks of LA residents.

    What a shithead, we've fought rebellions in this country over goddamn stamps and whiskey, and they really imagine material conditions are good enough that this sort of behavior will be tolerated amidst their ill advised trade war?

    It’s a terrible system when fucking dorks who got bullied by classmates and never moved on get this kind of power. Some Latino kids beat him up or pantsed him or whatever and it’s been his mission to target the ethnicity of those who made his life as a teenager unpleasant rather than focusing on something more productive. We are being ruled by emotionally unstable babies who never got over whatever hardship occurred in their formative years and now see themselves as arbiters of retribution. We are under a bunch of stunted Eliot Rogers-esque dorks.

    Anarchy is the supreme law and will remain as such till heat death of the universe.

    Try to hard to enforce your own and whatever order you thought you had will collapse.

    In slightly different words: “Federal law is supreme” says who? Federal law?

    And he's right, as long as the "resistance" continues doing nothing.

    Every day these people aren't afraid to leave their homes is a day Americans have failed.

    This Federal Government has shown that they have no regard for "the law", therefore they have no right to anything.
