“How dismal it is to see present-day Americans yearning for the very orthodoxy that their country was founded to escape.”

I've been watching this marathon all day, and in case no one else says it..I want to thank you for your efforts to inject reason, logic, and rationality into an otherwise emotionally charged topic.

My advisor (from another era) said something to me I've never forgotten.
"Would you prefer to be right or would you prefer to win?"

I'm an old, so I dont care if I get zeroed out tomorrow. But I do wish I could leave behind a world my son could experience in some fashion that I did. I know the days of playing till sunset & the streetlights coming on are over...etc. But I cant live with the idea of giving him over to a dystopia.

TBF, Mr. Cuban we are dealing with some very trying times. Historical times.
Social Media etiquette is likely very low on the list for many. While not excusable, understandable....

Same reason psy-ops are so effective on Americans. Understanding that "perception=reality" requires a modicum of knowledge regarding basic human psychology.

TBH, it wouldnt surprise me one bit if the idiot demanded they park a bunch of tanks around Dupont Circle and the White House just for the optics.

These are probably my favorite takes. It's like someone walking into a Ben and Jerry's and loudly proclaiming: "I've never liked your ice cream."

ICE has been conducting raids in Memphis and Nashville, TN.
So it would probably be more accurate to say blue cities.

Vought and Miller strike me as more inherently nihilistic than ideological.

All of that work and sacrifice being invalidated in broad daylight by this administration is just about the most rage inspiring and simultaneously depressing thing, I think I'll ever witness in my lifetime.
Trump is in office because of bigotry and voter apathy.

Actually, in light of events that are ongoing....I am Debbie Downer at the moment. Because frankly, we're witnessing the desecration and destruction of all the rights that our veterans, POC and thousands of immigrants fought, bled and died for.
All of the marches, the sit-ins, the demonstrations..

The thing the past 5 months have convinced me of is that these people are 1️⃣ powerfully lazy and 2️⃣ huffing their own farts
They don't have the intelligence, logistics, or capacity to do martial law

Agreed, Protesting is a fundamental right. Devolving in to rioting is not and is taking the bait.
Another fundamental right that would take care of those pesky Republicans you despise, would be to....oh idk, vote? and yet 1/3 of America can't be bothered. Even more for local elections...

I have yet to see a suggestion from anyone against protesting? Myself included.
Protesting yes? Engaging in violence? Absolutely not.

Quick question, with no badge, no ID, no warrant, no verifiable way to prove that they are in fact LEOs, how does one prosecute someone for "attacking a cop"?

I think I should clarify a bit, in that I'm glad people continue to remark on the illegality of this administration's actions, but behaving as if this is somehow shocking is becoming a bit tiresome.
