Republicans really are just running on a platform of “we will kill all of you for money” and millions of people love it, because they think “all of you” doesn’t include them, and they think they’ll get a cut.
It's not just ghouls like Perry and pretty much every Republican, it's the people who keep voting for them even when they very clearly say, "what we propose is that you die for us, so we can go on not providing basic governance, so you can die more."
Hard to escape the conclusion that Perry is right; that freezing to death in your house alone is literally better to Republican voters than having to endure the psychological torment of acknowledging that we live in a shared society.
It's the same thing. Imagine living in Texas¹, constantly hearing elected Republicans on national TV volunteering you for death, knowing they'll be re-elected by your family and neighbors, who keep voting to kill you.

¹Or any other state.

Imagine Rick Perry saying "Texans are willing to die of cancer rather than allow federal money to go into cancer research."

It's not different. It's only acceptable because people keep voting for it, captured by the foundational lie that society doesn't exist.
About 4 years ago, I wrote these words:

"What the malignant spirit that has captured us wants is this: genocide and slavery. Literally."

I still believe this. armoxon.com/2017/08/bubble…
Further on, I proposed a series of proofs for detecting a society captured by a spirit that wants genocide and slavery, including this one, which had already occurred thousands of times before I wrote the words, and has occurred hundreds of times since. armoxon.com/2017/08/bubble… You start to hear arguments that end, either implicitly or e
We have to destroy this lie, as quickly and aggressively as possible.

People exist. Society exists.

The most important and productive thing you can do is believe this, then insist on this.

Who put my street in front of my house? I did. armoxon.com/2020/10/street…
Our primary enemy are not people, but foundational lies, designed to inevitably lead to genocide and slavery.

*Society isn't real
*Life must be earned
*Profit is how you earn it
*Whiteness=profit
*Unearned life=theft
*Theft must be redeemed
*Work and death redeem

Fight the lies
The only reason Republicans can campaign on "we will kill you for money" is because we have believed these lies as a society.

Some are eager for these lies and conclusions.

Others simply don't interrogate their beliefs.

Kill the lies within yourself first, then without.
You kill lies by telling truths.

*Money is only a tool
*Every human being is art
*Art's value is intrinsic
*Nothing must be earned
*Nothing must be redeemed
*Our shared life is foundational, generative, automatic, inextricable, configurable, and inherited.
This sort of thing is only possible in a society that has believed terrible foundational lies.

Girl are you an angel because you're covered in wings and eyes and people are just *terrified* of you.
Girl is your daddy a thief because somebody stole my TV and I'm pretty sure it was your dad.
Girl do you have a little Irish in you, because I'm from the census and I probably should have led with that information.

I'd like to ask Kirk Cox what exactly people are being silenced from saying. What, specifically, do they want to say, but don't, for fear of being shamed for it?

And: what, specifically, does Kirk Cox intend to do to ensure nobody can shame them for saying those things?
I'm 46 years old, and I can't think of a time when bigots of all kinds felt more emboldened to speak their minds. I've never been more aware of how many people in my country proudly believe horrible, selfish, anti-human things.

What is this America over which Kirk Cox obsesses?
What is this "robust exchange of ideas" that Republicans would like to have?

What ARE the Republican "ideas" they would like to exchange with us so robustly?

If you think the answer is “no” you’ll need to ask yourself what on earth would stop him.
Only if dead or debilitated. And honestly given how detached from reality Republicans are, even then.
I don't think dead people can run for and become president, but a lot of things I didn't think could happen have happened simply because if somebody approaches it with the attitude "try and stop it from happening" there exists no political will to stop it.

So who knows?

No way to remove a Republican president from office, anyway. It hasn't been tested but seems to me likely 17 Democratic Senators would have voted to remove a Democratic president who had tried to murder them.

But for a Republican president there exists no crime great enough.
Take it to the greatest extreme you could imagine.

"If Trump dropped a nuclear weapon and vaporized an American city, most Republican Senators would vote to exonerate—even Senators from the state in which that city had been incorporated."

That seems right. I'd buy that.
I mean this isn't a worse argument than those we got from Republicans after the insurrection.

Amazing to note that the 38.2%—perhaps the most over-represented people in the history of democracy—are furious, driven almost entirely by resentment that they are the oppressed ones: forgotten, neglected, and downtrodden.

Fascists only believe in the existence of themselves.
The more our country tries to free itself from white supremacy, the more the structures designed to preserve and entrench white supremacy, such as the Senate and the Electoral College, begin to present themselves.
It's worth noting this distinction—though the % of people supporting Trump nationwide is also approximately 40%, and Republicans very clearly represent only those people.

So, entrenched white supremacy isn't an exact system but it takes care of its own.

The Democrats in charge of calling these shots didn't ever want to call witnesses, is the clear takeaway.
I love to surrender to a terrorist's threats, and if the threat is an empty threat? even better
GIVEN REPUBLICAN COMPLICITY, THE JOB WASN'T TRYING AND CONVICTING THE PRESIDENT, THE JOB WAS TRYING AND CONVICTING THE REPUBLICAN PARTY FOR THEIR COMPLITITY IN HIS CRIMES AND MAKING THEIR VOTE AS DAMNING AS POSSIBLE, GODAMNIT HOW DOES EVERYBODY NOT SEE THIS ARGGGGGGG
