These people are TOAST! If the Wanted to ACTUALLY Peacefully Protest they SHOULD have just BROKEN the CAPITOL WINDOWS, BEATEN CAPITOL POLICE, POOPED ON THE CAPITOL WALLS and USED WEAPONS!
Maybe even shit on a desk?
And you’re going to have to ally with those people at some point to stop this fascism.
I don’t see how allying with fascists stops fascism.
I’m sure black people didn’t foresee how standing next to white supremacists was in any way helpful during WWII, or capitalists standing next to communists, or Christians standing next to Muslims, but it was necessary.
It’s basic history. You’re going to have to figure out how to stand with people you don’t like very much, as much as you enjoy the ‘leopards ate your face’ jokes.
Though after the last six months, I imagine Democrats would rather hide in a bunker making ‘leopards ate your face’ jokes or writing sternly-worded letters than actually defeat fascism anyway.

Your analogies make sense if you identify a common enemy. We do not have a common enemy. They are directly supporting the enemy.
If you have anything more concrete to point to to explain your point I’m absolutely stumped.
What? The “land of the free”? Whoever told you that is your enemy.
Oh cool, they’re arresting the the GOP, police and ICE?
Waffen-SS
Hopefully the protestors can get organized enough to not be crushed. Good luck, stay safe.
Sounds like a martial law in every way possible except officially being named one. I hope everyone brings their masks with them when protesting over there.
OoooooooooK. So, who wants to start a betting pool on which day this week we get martial law? Price is Right rules?
Imma say Tuesday.
This is basically a declaration of it.
I expect that declaration to be on his birthday parade when he gives his night of the long knives speech.
OK, so I’ll put you down for Monday?
Do you happen to be open on Sundays?
Like, today?
It’s a bold strategy Cotton, let’s see if it pays off.
I’ll take Wednesday for the over
He 100% wants it before his birthday
feeling like fascist martial law. who could have seen it coming. i bet brandon would have stopped it. not socialists though, socialism is evil. 🙄
If you choose to go out to help, sharpie the number of a local legal non profit helpline on your arm and leave your phone at home. Bring a sharpie to write the number on others arms. Mask up. Solidarity and safety, my friends.
Kyle Kulinski has been calling this for months now. Well, awaaaaaay we go
Welcome to the rebellion.
I have friends everywhere?
The irony of the Jan 6 guy doing this lol
Most honest US politician says unlimited force to protect his elevated position is fine, but the tiniest amount of force protesting that position is illegal terrorism.
To me, this looks like yet another sign that the current regime is striving for tyranny. That, in turn, would probably mean civil war, unless US citizens are willing to accept the end of democracy.
At least, that’s how it looks to me, a European. Do you feel the same way?
I mean, it’s pretty obvious that the US government doesn’t care about the law. And then, to top it all off, there’s this ridiculous military parade for Drump’s birthday … only someone with dictator ambitions would do something like that.
Yeah, the LA “riots” where super tame by riot AND LA standards. Like, they didn’t even have to bust out the water cannons. A skateboarder tanked some tear gas and flipped them off. It’s not like a bunch of people stormed the capitol building or something. This is the flimsiest excuse ever for martial law, so I have to assume it’s another step towards tyranny.
Apparently storming the capitol building is cool with this administration though
that’s been done before. maybe next time a different nearby building of a similar color could be chosen.
Yes, it’s frightening.
I think they’re using photos from other protests that make it seem more dramatic too.
To me this has been pretty obvious since they started following the Project 2025 manifesto line by line
Honestly, it could be seen on the distant horizon as far back as the Bush administration
Yes, I see it the same way. But it seems that implementation is now imminent, and I fear that resistance will be necessary, because soon it will probably be too late.
I’m from Germany, and the actions of the US government remind me eerily of the rise of the Nazis in my home country back then - almost as if history were repeating itself.
I assure you, we’re thinking the same stuff.
From the ground, it feels like a lot of Americans are willing to trade their democracy for the illusion of peace.
That’s how it was in 1933, when the Nazis seized power in Germany.
Get ready for another Kent State massacre x1000
Remember when libs kept promising us the military would never use violence against the American people? Remember how they said if a tyrant became president the military would refuse orders to harm fellow Americans?
God it would be funny if there wasn’t a literal genocide that needed to be ended first.
That possum comatose thing will stop him for sure! Drumf is finished!
"Remember when libs kept promising us the military would never use violence against the American people? "
Was this before or after the Kent State Massacre?
You’re telling me people who join the brown people murder brigade have no scrupules?
