It's kind of true. The DOD has contingency plans and war game engagement mock ups for fucking everything, and I mean EVERYTHING. Hegseth probably looked up the plans for taking and occupying Greenland and thought that it was THE actual plan. He's just so damn stupid.

Yeah, writing a paper and leaving it sit there open.. scanning... scanning... scanning. Should that be a comma or a semicolon? Do I want single quotes there? parentheticals? commas or em dashes? Fuck.. everyone sees an em dash now and thinks ChatGPT.. God dammit. And so on...

The oath doesn't matter. What matters is who they perceive the enemy to be.
And they're programmed.

No. MAGA is the military. They're not going to go rogue. they're just going to do what they're told.

That's how it works when the people engaging in the system do so in good faith. Trump has abandoned good faith. The system doesn't have any safeguards for this. IT doesn't matter how it's SUPPOSED to work. That's not going to save you.

And? What makes you think that'll stop him? They knew that this was illegal before they did it. He's already replaced the officers with cronies. MAGA has a large military component..

She is not in the chain of command of the national guard. She couldn't' have refused them because they would never have asked her that. It's just not a thing that would happen.

There's a risk when you make these kinds of comparisons. These people AREN'T being carted off to ovens. Yet. They might be.. but they're not yet. But by saying this NOW when you do, later when they actually are, you'll have no place to go.

Because if they ask REAL questions then they don't get invited to be there to ask the stupid questions.
Sadly, I'm not even kidding.

If you're not a racist and you support Trump, you're okay with standing shoulder to shoulder with racists.. So ... What's the difference?

Are the marines local to California? or are they from elsewhere? Because Trump might be stupid enough to deploy soldiers against their own friends and neighbors.

And Keep spotters at a distance with high zoom cameras to catch the altercations from a safe distance. the closer people may miss incidents while trying to ensure their own safety. remote spotters can see more and can communicate tips to others.

Ostensibly, the Guard units are under the command of the local Governors. but Trump signed an executive order transferring control to him.. But that's not how executive orders are supposed to work.. The whole thing is a shit show.

They're GOING to find a reason. The way to beat them is to force them to move before they're ready. if you wait until they're ready then your options are minimized. Control the battlefield. Don't give it to them. They'll win. archive.org/details/milm...

I think you would find this perspective on MAGA enlightening. It's brief. But it explains a lot.

Miller is a Narrative Seeder in my hypothesis about Pooled Interpreters. He (among others) provides the stabilizing narrative to the pool.

Those aren't ANTI-fascist.. They're stories about fascism. You need to read Miyamoto Musashi, Machiavelli, Sun Tsu.. But you can start here.

Need to make some gibbets. To remind the soldiers what awaits those who think they're "just following orders" is a defense.

Yes. Interpreter pools are universal.. Every fan club, union, book club, association, video game console has an interpreter pool around it. A group of shared values. MAGA is just particularly pervasive for reasons I wrote in the paper.

That ship has sailed. There's no going back from here. You might (and MIGHT is doing a LOT of heavy lifting there) get another shot.. but then the fascists will just regroup and replan, identify what went wrong, and fix it for next time. You don't have the will do do what has to be done to stop it

"More of us than them" ? You can protest all you want. Gandhi had the Indian National Army, MLK had Malcolm X. What do you have? If your speech is the only option then no one cares. If there's no "Or else" implicit in your speech, then they really don't have anything to worry about, do they?

MAGA is very resilient. They will manufacture a new truth.
