Maybe Elrond should have voted against the ring.
I purchased a gun before Trump took office and have been practicing at the range, as well as encouraging everyone I know to do the same. Arm yourself and prepare, this only ends one way.
I too am a recent gun owner. I agree that preparation is necessary, but I disagree that it only ends one way. I will advocate for peaceful means of resistance until they are no longer possible. Have hope in the face of our enemies!
The enemy is fascism, and fascists are only dealt with one way. Protesting does nothing against Nazis, especially peaceful protests, it just gives them easy targets. We tried protest, negotiation, appeasement, and more when it came to Hitler and his Nazis, and only One Thing worked to get rid of them. Prepare, organize, and fight back against the fascists.
Unless your practicing in a group and developing tactics, you're right it does only end one way.
I don't know how many armed people are coming, but if you're alone I do know how it ends...
Destroy the country to "own the libs". What a world and they wanted this so they can make memes instead of trying to do anything.
At least we never went socialist.
That will provide me a lot of comfort when the Fascists brutally murder me and my family for our dissent. At least they weren't filthy socialists that tried to feed, cloth, or house anyone without condition. What a nightmare hellscape that would have been.
I've said it once and I'll say it again … a large portion of the current democratic party is rich. The DNC serves corporations not the people. They are controlled opposition. They will keep the status quo as long as they get to continue living their cushy lifestyle. The whole system is corrupt and that includes the DNC, they won’t be saving us.
It's interesting how when the Democrats are in power they struggle to get legislation across the line, get "outraged" when Republicans stymie their efforts, and eventually agree to cut bills down to the point where they're achieving a fraction of what they were supposed to.
But when Republicans are in power, Dems seem incapable of putting up any resistance and cry to their voters that if only they just had a few more donation dollars they'd be able to defeat fascism and then turn around and let the Republicans pass whatever awful legislation they want.
That was one of the reasons I was excited that Walz was on the ticket. The democrats in MN passed a lot of progressive legislation with a 1 seat majority.
"Liberals will win majority of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, CNN projects"
The one on the right should be "Edgelord leftists posting on Lemmy"
I mean I'm not gonna deny that some like Schumer have been totally useless. But over the last few months "liberals doing nothing" has included halving Tesla's stock price and winning the Supreme Court in a state that went Trump. In prediction markets future races are looking bad for Republicans. Don't like what democrats are doing? Great, go run or support a candidate you do like. Or better yet, run as a Republican and do a hostile takeover of that party so you can challenge democrats from the left in the general too. There's enough anger at Republicans now that it could actually work, especially in safe blue districts.
So does Pokémon canonical have Jesus being nailed on the cross? Maybe it was Mew the only son of Arcaues? Would make Mewtwo the Antichrist?
