So we're just going to skate past a sitting U.S. Senator making the white power sign with neo Nazis at a campaign event huh.
Oh well at least the *other* Georgia Republican Senator in a runoff election won't have the same prob—oh damn.
Wow guys it almost just seems like it's a white supremacist political party.
Love to chill with my white supremacist buddies, and commemorate 3k doors knocked by holding up the exact 3 fingers used in the white supremacist "OK" sign, the very normal way to signify 3 I use frequently.
There's always an explanation, and people willing to believe the explanation.

Remember when Laura Ingraham didn't give a Nazi salute at the RNC, even though she clearly did, on the grounds that a) if she had, her career would be over, and b) her career is not over, so ipso facto
"3k doors knocked"
lol just realized 3k doors = 3 ks

Imagine if these people ever experienced actual oppression.
The law never

Enslaved their great-grandparents
Robbed their grandparents
Imprisoned their parents
Stole their property
Shot them when unarmed
Exonerated their killers
Honored their murderers with flags and statues
There is no massive effort at the national, state, and local levels to disenfranchise them of the vote.

There exists no political party and media apparatus dedicated to the premise that allowing them to participate in society equates to theft.

The reality is very simple: The Republican Party is no longer participating in democracy. They're running a series of ops against every election cycle, predicated on the notion that only their power is legitimate.
This isn't a failed coup. This is a *continuous* coup that stretches back years. It includes Gingrich's scorched earth methods, Bush v Gore, the politicizing of the Bush DoJ, the judicial obstructionism and nullification of the McConnell Senate, and the entire Trump presidency.
It includes decades of tortured racist gerrymandering and disenfranchisement, Citizens United, the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act, PACs, and deliberately colluding with foreign powers.

This isn't a failed coup. This is a *continuous* coup that stretches back years.

If you program them to slaughter a crowd of protesters they’ll do it with similar precision.
Oh and at least 1 of our 2 major political parties will absolutely program robots to slaughter a crowd of protesters.
“‘Deactivate murder robots’ is a terrible slogan that confuses white suburban robot murder aficionados, and you saying it is why we lost House seats in Texas. Think of a snappier slogan, like: ‘give murder robots extra money and make them spend 68% of it on less murdery stuff.’”

Observe: the lie that "government" is a monolithic entity, from which we are somehow separate.

Government is how we organize, manage and maintain our society, but to acknowledge that is to acknowledge society, and one's responsibility to organize, manage, and maintain it.
Government didn't close churches. Churches closed because people with something more than a childishly selfish view of the world understood their responsibility to the shared life of a society, and government is how that understanding was operationalized and delivered.
Nor does government militarize police. The police is militarized because people with a fearful, hateful or selfish view of the world understand a militarized police will operationalize & deliver that fear, hate, and greed through the mechanism of government.

Government is *us*.

It's important to remember that Trump suits Republicans—whose entire strategy is engineering government failure to use as a pretext to further dismantle government—perfectly.

This is a party that exists only to demolish society.

A thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.
They've created an alternate reality, in which people can claim morality based solely on their own personal intention, regardless of result, allowing them to engage in sociopathic cruelty and overweening moralism simultaneously.

For certain people, it's a VERY popular reality.
To watch Trump succeed despite epic failure is to understand: U.S. society is based on knowing enablement of the violent abuse of marginalized people—mostly young, mostly of color, mostly women, mostly poor—by powerful people—mostly older, mostly white, mostly men, mostly rich.

My pitch is, Superman goes on Jeopardy, and he does pretty well, like 2nd place but a respectable 2nd place? like he only loses by $300 because the other guy bets it all on Final Jeopardy, but he gets the home edition of the game, which he plays against Jimmy and Lois and wins.
I don’t see how I can tell that story in less than five movies.
