you can't use rule of law to stop rule of man
that just doesn't work; and when it fails one ends up with some version of the plot from Seven Against Thebes
Democrats doing literally anything
🤣
There is no logic in threatening prosecution for attempting a dictatorship.
Those who attempt try to succeed. There is no prosecution in a successful dictatorship.
To do this successfully, Democrats would have to abandon the corrupting influence of corporate PAC donations and actually work towards improving the material living conditions of the working class. Not just say some of the right things on the campaign trial, but actually fight for and pass real legislation.
I’m sorry, but the current elected officials simply aren’t going to do that. We have to replace them first to have any hope, and it’s going to take time to do so unfortunately.
They will not.
Sadly Democrats couldn't make Republicans fear a Lovecraftian Horror.
So, we should summon a Lovecraftian Horror?
I have said it before but republicans need to become irrelevant to the point they change the party name again.
Well so far they've been holding signs in congress... that's a very effective way in fact I remember the first pustch attempted by Hitler was entirely halted by mild mannered people holding signs.
Fund wfh, Dems are pathetic and compromised.
Make sure to buy guns
Well, unless the Dem voters quit expecting their reps to do something about the situation, it's not gonna change.
We all do, not just those in the office
Especially since those in office don't seem particularly interested.
By shifting to the right apparently
I said this years ago after J6: if liberals wanted to maintain liberal democracy, they had to literally hang Trump after J6 and the false electors scheme. Instead he faced 0 consequences, so he (and the fascists around him) decided they could just keep trying different coup strategies until they found the one that works. Liberals let them iteratively test coup strategies.
Attempting?
Fear the Consequences? Have they run that Idea by DNC Leadership? Because the LAST Thing they would WANT to do is HURT Republican Voters FEEWINGS NO MATTER THE COST!
I think that you guys need to get over your fear of introducing another political party, so that the Democrats can be made to fear the consequences of being a bunch of animated fucking corpses that are too busy maintaining the status quo to listen to their voters or show any signs of actual life.
I'm sure a pink shirt and a flag will do the trick!
And if Demoocrats won't, then the general population will need to do it.
