Get out if you can.

If not, get a rifle and start learning to fly drones.

Well, who knows,!it’s not like they were exactly great at dealing with terrorism prior to this

They know they’re fucking cooked in the midterms and probably 2028. The closer they are to losing power the more dangerous they’re going to get.

We should all be prepared for violence and for a long struggle against these fucks.

Cute... they will simply "win" massively in the midterms, no matter the actual votes. Then the media will publish totally ridiculous stories "analyzing" the reasons. And the complacent population will majorily accept it.

Yes, be prepared for violence if you believe and want to defend democacy. but don't fool yourself into believing that you won't be mostly alone.

Maybe but how about you ease it on the doom and gloom and those of us that can do something do what we can

It's not just the political system that's fucked.

Fascist focuing their efforts on anti fascists isn't the win they think it is.

"We can and we must identify and map this threat and rebuild our counterterrorism architecture to defeat it," Rubio said, describing a transnational threat from groups who target politicians and infrastructure that he said were motivated by a hatred of the West and its success.

What fucking nonsense. If the Left is just made up of malcontents who are jealous of the West's "success," why are more and more Westerners joining the Left? Do they hate their own "success?" Or, could it be that not all of us have shared in this supposed "success." Maybe "the West" doesn't describe a civilization or a culture, but a class. A class of greedy, genocidal sociopaths.

If they came out and honestly said "we will focus our antiterrorism efforts on suppressing workers' attempts to organize" their cult rubes might smell something fishy (but probably wouldn't).
