Remember that NY Young Republicans Club video where they sampled Bane and ranted into the camera about total war? Our enemies are villains aping supervillains, losers posturing about strength and significance they can't even dream of knowing

I guess it's better than them using these tools effectively for nefarious ends, but it's still going to kill some people and mess up more lives

theophite.bsky.social•8 days ago

like, isn't there anyone you want to actually reward? you just took control of the most powerful state on earth. why are you breaking it on purpose. you are going to need that later

magical thinking and entitlement are the worst combination

theophite.bsky.social•8 days ago

if there were some party apparatus waiting in the wings to swoop in and take over, that would be one thing, but the republican party is at this point almost completely moribund but for the donations of like seven insane billionaires. this isn't an exaggeration!

They are going to need a lot of compliant Democrats if they want to run this country. If we can keep compliance to an absolute minimum we could deny them power.

theophite.bsky.social•8 days ago

but, like, the insane thing is that none of these people believe in public service. it's a fascism entirely without foot soldiers!

These people are so fucked that I'm honestly kinda starting to feel a tiny bit bad for fascism.

We’re lucky that our enemies are the dumbest I can think of, hopefully that can be enough to overcome their massive wealth and audience

unavaleable.bsky.social•8 days ago

no wonder why they want the jeune ecole technomancy of drones to work out, because they won't need them or whatever

Fully Automated Degenerate Hellspawn Calvinism or something

they're laying off weather forecasters! like, literally the bedrock of how farmers choose when to plant, is getting stripped away by vandals just so they can say they broke something.

wood-mousse.bsky.social•8 days ago

Not to mention whether or not it is safe to fly an airplane! You’d think given what’s happened they’d be sensitive to that kind of thing!

Lysenkoism without the lysenkoism. "Whatever it is, we're against it!"

theophite.bsky.social•8 days ago

they're taking down webpages. why the fuck are you taking down webpages! they don't even cost you anything!

snarkranger.bsky.social•8 days ago

they forced thousands of people to run around for hours scouring the "T" out of LGBT just for the lulz.

it's fucking governance by the shittiest Twitch streamers you ever saw.

walmsley.bsky.social•8 days ago

they're breaking everything they can find on the off chance that it might hurt someone they dislike enough to make that person angry

escapedexplorer.bsky.social•8 days ago

They're ripping all the wires out of the wall and trying to see if which was connected to the Secretly Paying Everyone To Be Woke button, because they genuinely do not believe opposition to them is organic. Look at how they talk about USAID-they're CONVINCED its a slush fund to pay people to be Dems

They want to be loved by their enemies while blowing up their most powerful newly gained tool to compel a non genuine love with. It’s almost non-sensical.

The other 99% of their usual donor base went over and bought the Democrats.

In hindsight the fact that our current crop of fascists arose from anonymous social media where maintaining an identity is a form of faggotry probably explains their relative lack of patronage networks

snarkranger.bsky.social•8 days ago

Well, Melon Usk is getting a fat contract for his shitty Cybertrucks which aren't selling, so yeah, someone's going to be rewarded.

It was the first story that made sense, felt like Sec Rubio was trying to impress the cool kids table and missing the mark

complex systems and competent bureaucracy can only be a threat to them because they don't understand them and can't wield them effectively. apes using an assault rifle as a club

actually tracks given how many of them are openly addicts

grissallia.bsky.social•8 days ago

"owning the libs'

solomonhinton.bsky.social•8 days ago

…with impunity…

maryneedsnohail.bsky.social•8 days ago

Actually, there is a long-term intent of sorts. It simply makes no sense to non-fascists. Nonetheless, it is what we're dealing with. I've compiled the thread below to try to explain it.
