If this is sarcasm then 👏👏👏. Good sarcasm is beautiful.

Ah, a sycophant that actually drank the kool aid and still thinks the felon in our White House actually cares about the people of this country, or the country itself. Good grief.

angelofscience.bsky.social•2 days ago

Hang on now. Sycophants engage in direct flattery for some approval or advantage. As a MAGA Republican, I’m simply worshipful of, and servile to, President Trump in exchange for little more than fleeting parasocial validation. That hardly qualifies me as a sycophant. Please get it right.

happycampermama.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes, there really are so many other descriptive terms that are more fitting for magats.

angelofscience.bsky.social•2 days ago

Implied apology accepted, and I appreciate your commitment to accuracy.

happycampermama.bsky.social•2 days ago

I thought magats don’t believe in apologies, therefore no apology was intended.

angelofscience.bsky.social•2 days ago

Sure we do! We believe in apologies when they’re owed to us, or when they’re not but feigning umbrage and extracting an apology will either give us some advantage or diminish an opponent (or both). We just don’t ever owe them to anyone.

“On a corner of the Doge's Palace in Venice is a relief depicting Raphael holding a scroll on which is written: "Efficia fretum quietum" ("Keep the Gulf quiet").”

This guy is satire, holy poop. No “Republican MAGA” is perfectly surmising all of this.

realantipartisan.bsky.social•2 days ago

As soon as I read "I'm simply worshipful of and servile to ...in exchange for a small amount of ...." I knew it was satire. One of the highest forms of comedy.

It's called "Watching history repeat itself." You'd have to know some history to understand.

Might want to have a gander at this as well. If the author's right, we only have a couple of weeks before some serious shit jumps off in this country.

Honest question: What part of Project 2025 recommends declaring martial law (for spurious reasons)?

brklynmind.bsky.social•2 days ago

Serious answer... This isn't chatGPT.

I take it you're implying I should've asked ChatGPT?

I did that, and it came up with nothing - but AI search isn't that reliable.

Elements of the plan could provide a framework for actions resembling martial law under the guise of restoring order during crises.

sanelunatic.bsky.social•2 days ago

In 2020 Trump wanted to use the Insurrection Act to suppress Black Lives Matter protesters. And his allies urged him to invoke the Insurrection Act in an effort to stay in power after losing the 2020 presidential election. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/trump-wants-use-military-against-his-domestic-enemies-congress-must-act

realantipartisan.bsky.social•2 days ago

He wants to do it again. Only difference is the crisis will be engineered, not a response to actual rights violations or police brutality or something similar -- accusations are confessions of intent.

He's followed everything else in the Hitler playbook. He's actually behind schedule in terms of declaring martial law.

Behind schedule? What do you think it was supposed to have taken him, 53 days?

$25bn contract to Blackwater to provide private aircraft and ‘security’ personnel to assist with deportations and ‘other operations’?

oibheel.bsky.social•2 days ago

probably, TripleCanopy, not Blackwater.
I’d bet those Immigration guys in masks and Elons strong men protecting his high-tech acolytes are TripleCanopy.

coatescan.bsky.social•2 days ago

It’s Prince. Whether under Blackwater or another. Since Trump pardoned the Iraq culprits in 2020 he’s been circling.
There’ll be a few though. If you’re going to have a nationwide presence in different guises - immigration, camps, civil unrest for example, then there’ll be contracts flying.

utexas-96.bsky.social•2 days ago

Triple Canopy were hired to not allow our politicians into government buildings DOGE were in. Their patch is clearly visible in some of the photos. Not sure we should be using our own contractors to keep our politicians out of federal buildings 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

gtrbuff.bsky.social•2 days ago

Billion? 😳 Good heavens.
Next stop, authoritarian government. 😬🤬
I believe Blackwater is defunct as Prince sold it. It became Academi, which merged with Triple Canopy to form Constellis Holdings. All former SpecOp members (Army SF, SEALS, Delta Force)

stcursch.bsky.social•2 days ago

We should all be scared.

roselover772.bsky.social•2 days ago

No
Stop being afraid

ancomtn.bsky.social•2 days ago

No, we should all be furious. The left doesn't get scared, it gets angry.

You have no need to be scared when you have the numbers and the left have the numbers and the experience of beating back the state.

We have done it in every protest for decades. We can do it again and save this country.

angry12.bsky.social•2 days ago

In past decades, protesters haven’t been threatened by the army. He is threatening to shoot us.

coatescan.bsky.social•2 days ago

We can be both.

ancomtn.bsky.social•2 days ago

True, I should qualify that as a 43yr old white male in TN, I am privileged enough to not be as fearful. More anxious than anything.

There are plenty of marginalized communities that have every right to be fearful. They should stay safe and we should do everything we can to keep them safe.

savvygranny.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oooohhh big big BIG protests have gotten us ALL the freedoms we wanted!!!! Right??? We're sooooo angry that we're going backward!!!!! GET RID OF RACISM AND WHITE SUPREMACY and we'll be fine

ancomtn.bsky.social•2 days ago

You're correct on a lot of levels.
Im with you on erasing white supremacy for good. It has to be stomped out.

I'm of the opinion that protests will only get us so far. We have to be willing to never stop. Not even when the military is called in. Make them choose.

Protests won't work. Revolution is on the horizon i fear. It's probably the only way. We need to make our forefathers proud and save this United States.

ancomtn.bsky.social•2 days ago

Honestly, given the political landscape, I'm afraid you're right but this country was founded on revolution. It's in our blood.

I'll die in the street before I capitulate to fascists. I'd rather not go that route but if history is any indicator, it's coming.

lunaschilde.bsky.social•2 days ago

bobtomyfriends.bsky.social•2 days ago

And we need to be protesting HARD already! Jeffries and Schumer should be standing in front of government buildings and getting themselves arrested! Turn the heat up fast so the frog jumps out of the pan.

bamamontana.bsky.social•2 days ago

You can be scared while you make your sign and drive to the place, it’s been done.

bamamontana.bsky.social•2 days ago

We should be ready to protest in our city if it happens in another city, because he cannot effectively declare it in all the major population centers of the US

That is exactly what they want. DO NOT be scared. BE PISSED.

franklin1337.bsky.social•2 days ago

As peaceful protests become larger and more successful, far right militias will try to incite and record violence. Fox News is running stories on vandalism caught on teslas in sentry mode which essentially turns all 9 cameras into mobile surveillance

angelofscience.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yep, that’s what we’re going to do. Oh, & please don’t make yourselves aware that Tesla cameras are on the front bumper, facing out from the rearview mirror, on the turn signal lights above the wheels, on the pillars btw the doors, & on the license plate holder. Or that they’re proximity-activated.

Who cares. It's a propaganda station. It is inconsequential.

collectivenothing.bsky.social•2 days ago

He didn’t say it was being considered, he said it’s what authoritarians do when things don’t go their way. Considering Trump only ran to stay out of prison and it’s all part of project 20025, it’s a pretty safe bet. FFS, he wanted to shoot protesters. 🙄

scarsandhearts.bsky.social•2 days ago

Call me crazy but Hegseth is where he is bc has no ethical background to stop Trump from ordering our military to lay down protesters en masse. Will that date be 4/5 or another? Hard to say but I expect this government to start murdering protesters w/a quickness.

Pretty awesome to feel that way.😉🤨

utexas-96.bsky.social•2 days ago

It's up to our service members to remember their oath to the constitution. They do not have to follow unlawful orders. And, the I was only following orders didn't work out so well for the Nazis.

grumpybumpy123.bsky.social•2 days ago

What evidence do you have you are not a total prick ? From the looks of your replies and post all you are is a prick with the ability to type . You’re one weird person . You get your rocks off trolling . Do you do it with clothes on or off .

angelofscience.bsky.social•2 days ago

Proving a negative is hard, but I’ll try. 1, I’m a fundamentalist Christian, so I do this—and as much as possible—with my clothes on. 2, I never get my “rocks” off to anything. That’s a sin (Genesis 38:9-10). 3, I’ve only asked questions rather than insulting people, which seems to preclude “total.”

grumpybumpy123.bsky.social•2 days ago

Genesis 29:21 Then Jacob said “ Give me my wife . My time is complete and I want to make love to her .” 30:15 “very well he can sleep with you tonight in return for your son’s mandrakes .

angelofscience.bsky.social•2 days ago

Beautiful, isn’t it? This is why we need to get God’s Word back in our schools.

grumpybumpy123.bsky.social•2 days ago

Let’s teach them Deuteronomy . “I will send wasting famine against them , consuming pestilence and deadly plague. Sure sounds like something that should be taught in schools . Your god seems to have a liking for violence against others .

angelofscience.bsky.social•2 days ago

It should be! Although omniscient, omnibenevolent God loathes violence. His message is a message of universal peace and unconditional love. At that point in Deutoronomy He was feeling a little slighted because of the worship of false gods & detestable idols. It was an unpleasant surprise, you know?
