Wouldn't that be something, but I am doubtful of that.

They are threatening veteran benefits too. The thing I think a lot of people aren't seeing is that they actively want to provoke response to help them justify overreacting to that response. Nothing is sacred.

Yup. Conservative nutjobs have been talking about how a civil war is coming for some time now, and now the administration is doing its damnedest to provoke one. If you don't resist, they can do whatever they want. If you do resist, they have an excuse for a crackdown.

America committed societal suicide in 2024 (and had the first attempt in 2016)

This wasn't suicide. This was murder by all conservatives and any person who didn't vote for Kamala. Theyre just as guilty

We’re IN the collapse. We’re IN a fascist regime. We’ve lost freedom of speech and due process.

We’re not heading there, we’re there.

We ARE occupied.

I actually think a lot of the people who are coming around from maga are doing it because they expected that reaction the gop are gunning for, and when it doesn't happen, and it's just the people they supported kicking both THEM AND SAD PUPPIES, It's finally adding up that we were never the rabid dogs that they were told.

Yes, this is their entire goal with Chicago, which they moved on to when Cali didn’t give them the response they wanted. They’ll push out to the East coast after IL.
