The Revolution Is Coming.

[Blue]

Maybe you can't see it when you're inside the USA but from an outside perspective the US does look a lot like its in a terminal decline from its status as world hegemon, much like an empire of the history books. After all, the one rule of statecraft everybody is aware of is that no country's dominance on the world stage ever lasts forever.

It's a theoretically representative democracy functioning as a politically farcical pay-to-play oligarchy, bloated military expenses at the cost of keeping up with the rest of the industrialized world's social safety nets/living standards and infrastructure as well as maintaining them, wages and quality of living has been mostly stagnant for decades by not keeping up with productivity, wealth inequality is already larger in the US than anywhere else in the whole of human history and becoming exponentially worse, and now you're actively politically regressing by beginning to reinstitute things like debtors prisons, repealing environmental protection acts, and dismantling trade unions.

I doubt there is going to be a "Liberté, égalité, fraternit" kind of full-on revolution in the US but the way I see it, the left-right pendulum of public opinion in US politics is being held on the right, the politically/socially/economically conservative interpretation of "right", by a rubber band, not allowed to swing naturally, (and by no means am I meaning to imply that it's the republicans exclusively holding it there, the entire system is dysfunctional) and somebody is adding more weights to it every year.

I don't watch TV. I see things like this picture ...

And you can't tell the difference between a Seig Heil salute and a clenched fist of resistance. Back to night school... or an optometrist.

I don't watch TV. I see things like this picture and vid clips of him calling the NRA terrorists and baby killers and the first thing that comes to mind is Hitler. He did the exact same thing, recruiting Germany's youth to overthrow the existing Gov't. Didn't work out so well for Hitler. But you can do better, Right?

Go ahead and have your revolution. We'll see how it works out for you.

ROFLMAO!!!!

Sound familiar? Is it all to divert attention away from the fact that YOU are the real Nazi Fascist, terrorists?

Hitler actually did one thing better than Trump:
He could actually draw a crowd!

That's ok. He didn't need you there anyway.

That's true I guess.

What do you think of Trump trying to deport DACA recipients and actually deporting people who've lived in the USA for decades with no remaining connections or assets in the countries their being sent back to? He's even deporting soldiers who've toured in the M.E.

Tromp hasn't deported nearly as many as did Obama. Got a lot of catching-up to do there, Donnie. Say, when will you get around to your current in-laws?

We have citizens BORN in this country who are homeless, You want to ignore them and give homes to illegal aliens? Some of them have been here for ten yrs and more? Why haven't they applied for citizenship? Even children can apply for and receive citizenship. Soldier from OUR military? How did they even get INTO our military without being a citizen of the USA or resident of one of our territories like Puerto Rico or Guam?

We have citizens BORN here who are out of work and you want to keep sending jobs to Mexico, Canada and other countries? (Yes, I know that's NAFTA, but MSM is complaining about that too)

You want to give away free healthcare and other benefits to people who are here ILLEGALLY but turn your back on our own people?

THAT is part of what is wrong with this country. People like you want to spend OUR MONEY on everyone BUT us.

11 MILLION people here AGAINST THE LAW! That's what illegal means, you know.They, or their paremts BROKE THE LAW to get them here. And you want to give them a house, foodstamps, health care and say, "Welcome to America!"

I have a son with a wife and 3 kids, living in a run down trailer, working his ass off at two jobs and struggling to make ends meet even with my help. They get NOTHING from our Gov't but headaches. And you want to give everything to illegal immigrants. And I have to pay for that too?

When the automakers here had financial trouble, Obama's solution was to shut down Brands that were 100 yrs old and close production plants. But NOT the ones in Canada and Mexico. 100,000 AMERICANS lost their jobs rather than take back jobs we gave to our neighbors. Now you want to give more American jobs to people here ILLEGALLY.

GO FUCK YOURSELF.

Illegal immigrants aren't getting the shit you say they are. That's what the links are for.

So I'd say you fucked yourself with your post. Maybe you should try posting sober.

It totally is.

There is a whole group of lefties out there who think the USA is the WORST thing to ever happen to the world.

White males are the 2nd worst thing ever.

And social/economic freedom are the 3rd/1st worst thing ever.

They aren't all in one spot.

But you add the loudest of the (D)'s with the loudest of the (R)'s and it's pretty clear our political culture has gone into full on self destruct mode.

Our youth fucking HATES everything about this country...they think it's a disgusting horrible place and that they are victims for having to live in such a shit hole.

Interesting time to be alive.

Interesting that you fuckers think that the issue is between Left and Right. Commies and RWNJs that is only the surface of the fucking that the country is getting from being the flag in a tug of war between the "Eastern Financial Establishment" (EFF) and the "Capitalist Nuovo Rich Assholes", (CNRA).

Follow the money, from the Clinionistas to the Robber Barons of Industry. Who gets a bigger share as the Power shifts in Washington? How much of the "New Wealth" is spread through the population to support the Consumerism that is the 21st Century Culture and how much is skimmed off before it "trickles" down?

Trump is just a puppet eager to skim off the cream for his own self-aggrandizement. His strings are being pulled and he is too fucking dumb to notice, as long as his ego is supported by Fox and and a servile staff.

All this Left-Right horse shit is camouflage for the severe economic fucking the 99% has been getting the last 50 years.

If our population was 95% employed at a living wage with paid for single payer Mental and Physical Healthcare, and not scammed by Wall Street, There would be very little little for the populace to bitch about, but that cuts a good bit off the skim! add Coop-Child Care, Schools, social supporting structures and perhaps we could reduce the "Lone Wolf" mass shootings? More socialization of our youth to eliminate the bullied little dweeb that can't get laid, and take his frustration out with a loud statement?

Immigration is not the issue with the exportation/exploitation of labor in Third World abetted by the EFF and the CNRA. The issue is how do we want the county to exist, as a Oligarchy or as a Corp-tocracy?

How is it not?

No, it's an explanation/evaluation of what is happening.

How have the 99% been getting fucked?

If our population was 95% employed at a living wage with paid for single payer Mental and Physical Healthcare, and not scammed by Wall Street, There would be very little little for the populace to bitch about

As long as there is someone else with more, there will be bitching.

The 99% today in the USA are doing better than ever before, still bitching.

The issue is how do we want the county to exist, as a Oligarchy or as a Corp-tocracy?

Pretty much the same thing....love that government picking winners and loosers eh!!

Government management of markets/economy, the tighter that iron fist around the throat of commerce the better!!!

A big problem is posts like this.

Colin Kaepernick takes a knee to protest the Po Po and so he "hates" America, the military and the flag. Protestors have no place in 'Murica. Love it or shut up.

People like Bitter Boy can't abide Free Speech.

More ascription.

I never had a problem with protesting. I think it's silly but IDGAF if some jock wants to toss millions down the drain, or millions want to beg a guy they've been calling Hitler for over a year to take their guns from them or walk around with vag hats on. As long as they aren't impeding or infringing on my right to keep on the grind then there is absolutely NO problem.

Protest all you want.

And I never even suggested curbing free speech...unlike you who's outright attacked it when you didn't like what's being said.

I fully support Kaepernick and anyone else's right to protest and say whatever they want.

That doesn't mean I have to support what's being said or have a positive view of it, just means I don't think the government should fuck with them for it.

 

[Captainnumnuts]

Well, yes, but it is an unintended revolution of a majority, supported by an outside force that has maintained an operational knowledge of spycraft that the U.S. lost by being captured by obsession with personal electronics, with a large dollop of self possession.

A counterrevolution of the majority is building, but who knows where it all goes?

IFYP.

 

[coachdb18]

It’s all fun and games and yelling thru a bullhorn against ‘the man’ while skipping class until somebody gets fed up and shoves the bullhorn up their ass...

 

[Blue]

The fact that US citizens are being bent over an economic table by the ultra rich is not a left-right issue.

E.g. how long do you (Botanyboy and Coachdb primarily) think you've spent railing against the fact that Trump just blew a $1.5t hole in your government deficit which is going to be partially covered by drastic slashes to social security, 80% of the total net gains made by his tax cuts will go to the top 1%'s pockets and get exponentially larger the richer a person is, and all the tax cuts he made for everybody earning over $75,000 are permanent while the rest expire in the mid 2020's and actually raise your taxes. He's shifting the tax burden drastically from the rich and large corporations onto the poor, middle and lower-upper classes. Like you didn't already have it bad enough.

Now compare how long you've spent criticizing that issue, to how long you've spent screaming about illegal immigrants, who btw commit all varieties of crime less frequently than the average US citizens, are a crucial mechanism in keeping the US agricultural industries afloat, and aren't actively sucking your financial gains away to line their own pockets.

You've been duped by propaganda. The media establishments at large who are all owned by the primary beneficiaries of Trumps insane tax cut plans thrust these honestly trivial and nonsensical issue (compared to the ramifications the tax bill is going to have on your lives) at you to keep you all occupied and divisive while they run out the back door with all the money.

It is a left-right issue...because guess who's got a GUN to the US citizens head forcing them to be bent over for the rich?

The government, they are the ones bending the citizens over for the uber rich....making it DIRECTLY a left v. right issue.

80% of the total net gains made by his tax cuts will go to the top 1%'s pockets

More like the top 20%'s pockets....and that's because they are the ones paying most of the taxes, so naturally they are the ones who save the most on tax cuts.

He's shifting the tax burden drastically from the rich and large corporations onto the poor, middle and lower-upper classes.

He's not, congress is.....and what's wrong with everyone paying their fair share?

Like you didn't already have it bad enough.

I live upper middle class on my ranch in Northern California....so shit is pretty far from bad.

And even if things do get bad? I'll still be doing well because that's just what I do.

It's THEIR MONEY....not mine.

Give me 1 good reasons why I should be mad people get to keep more of their money??

 

[Carnal_Flower]

You better hurry up and get the word out about the great Tax Cuts before the Mid-terms! You and Dawn O'Day should rent a truck and a bullhorn STAT because the unwashed masses are unimpressed, and that's all the Rs have to run on.

The message is not getting through. People think they suck. Complete loser.

Maybe if you just drive around telling them you can change their minds.

They are also "poor" and don't have the slightest clue why.

Why waste my breath??

I've got to figure out how to invest what I can while I've got it before people like you try to take it all from me on the eventual back swing of this.

The message is not getting through. People think they suck. Complete loser.

They do suck, just as bad as Democraps.

You can't fix stupid.

 

[FEELINGLUCKYPUNK]

In 1931 Spain forced ALFONSO XIII to abdicate and several political factions tried to govern. They couldn't, because their policy differences were too oppositional, and they hated onr another. Civivil war came when Spanish communists murdered 9000 priests and nuns, ND Spanish ANARCHISTS murdered several army leaders. Francisco Franco was an army leader assigned to a Spanish province in Africa. The communists and anarchists and socialists resisted Franco's efforts to stop the mirders, and Franco destroyed the communists, anarchists, and socialists.

Typical threat of violence from the extreme right. This is a big part of the reason they cling to guns-- they can't win on the basis of their arguments, so they need the threat of violence.

You want a war? You might keep in mind that 80% of enlisted people in the armed forces are republican and 97% of the officers. Could that be because of your disdain for the military? Do you think they are gonna fight for you? Good luck with that.

You all hate guns, so I know you are not gonna do any actual fighting. Unless you intend to take over the country with rocks and sticks and throwing water bottles and childish insults.

Another typical threat of violence from the extreme right.
