    And yet everytime I mention using perfectly legal means of exterminating conservative cockroaches, my comments are deleted by conservative cockroach mods. The infestation is now inside the house.

    We have gone down hill a long way in this country since McCain told that woman she was wrong at the campaign town hall.

      Not enough people remember that. It’s when I knew we were fucked, and it’s what I point to for people who can’t understand we were like this before 2015.

    Republicans: Call for mass violence, murder, etc

    Republican Voters: RABID CHEERS

    Democrat: vaguely quote what a republican says

    Republican voters: Mass outrage and calls for retribution against the liberal hate agenda

        Nah kid. Even the DOJ points to the fact that most domestic terrorism in the US comes out of the right. Has been this way for decades. Hell, I recall the white supremacists in the 70’s and 80’s agitating for violence. Seen that shit since I was a kid younger than you.

        Besides, if the right never lies about their percieved foes, the leftists are all limp-wristed, vegan, trans soy boys that aren’t “manly” enough to own a firearm let alone have the balls to point one at another person.

          Common sense: 80% of domestic terrorism in America is conducted by right wing people for right wing reasons.

          Republicans: 1 IN EVERY 5 TERRORISTS IS A DEMOCRAT!

        Conservatives have done 90% of the political violence in this country since it’s literal inception.

        “People did riots for BLM once” - cities did not burn down. No one “lost everything” also several right-wing agitators where discovered instigating the start of violence.

        That’s also not “political violence by democrats ” unless your definition of “Democrat” is “anyone who isn’t both white and racist”

        Charlie Kirk was killed by a Republican. Both Trump shooters were republicans. Gretchen Whitmer. January 6th. The Michigan Millitia. Sandy Hook. Trayvon Martin. George Floyd. Oklahoma City. Both Kennedys. MLK Jr.

    Pretty sure all you talking about guns and civil war are drastically overestimating MAGA. We just need to put out an AI video of Trump claiming drinking Drano makes you immortal or something and the problem will take care of itself.

    Jamille Bouie recently posted a short about the Ted Cruz moment and the conspicuous silence of the liberal media.

    In the meantime, internet chatter between MAGAs are blood libeling liberals and calling for the hunting and execution of liberals, where, in this case, liberals include anyone who is not MAGA.

    Republicans assume that people to the left of them are helpless, because we don’t attack them. Agency is not given to animals, because they can’t fight back. Thus, our lives have no meaning to Republicans.

    If we don’t fight, the delusion of Republican supremacy will never break.

    Mamdani could file charges against that audience member who threatened to shoot him. That was a terrorist threat. But good luck identifying a random person.

      If only there was infrastructure for identifying and tracking potential terrorists and criminals.

      Nah, let’s use it for identifying and tracking protesters or police officers’ crushes.

      You’d think surveillance would be pretty thorough at any event the President is attending. Or have they learned nothing from previous assassination ‘attempts’? No bulletproof glass, either. That precaution didn’t last long.

    They want a war so trump can put in war time laws. while there are a few pretty smart people on that side behind the scenes pulling the strings, the general populace has no idea how stupid this will be. Military factions, small militias, food shortages, water…

      Not to mention power and internet outages. We’ll pretty much revert to a developing nation of warring factions and no one will be safe.

      Agreed! The point of that is so stupid.

      Fun fact stupid used to be a scientific term used for people of lower intellect, as was the term idiot.

      But people got upset and then they changed it to retarded.

      But people got upset so they changed it to special needs.

      But people got upset so they changed it… etc

      Almost as if the words are bad because they are describing something bad?

      No matter what you call it nobody wants to be that. Sorry pearl clutchers, it suck’s that people use it to be mean, but they always will!
