I feel like that will start happening after the midterms or if it looks like there is less than 35% chance for the midterms to happen at all. Right now most people are moving extremely carefully to not give them any excuse to invoke Marshal Law.

Oh yeah, most likely not. It’s going to be grassroots. That’s why i’m going my best to share resources and information. I’m one person with zero influence, but if I can find people in the comments looking for directions to point their anger then we can grow that movement one person at a time.
Absolutely agree. It is fairly simple for them to infitrate any peaceful action to be sure they get violent, get their congress to change the laws on election timing..pres signs it and they declare...for the health and safety of the population..midterms are postponed..
Yeah. If things don’t go well in the midterms then all hell will break loose because then all hope is lost. Right now we have recourse: Wisconsin is having an election for SCOTUS and people aren’t talking enough about how important that is. SCOTUS is the reason we’re here right now.
Yeah I’m working with local people as much as I can.
I’m just done pretending electoral politics alone is going to save us, when we’ve already seen how toothless the justice system has been in the face of the already escalating attacks on our democracy.
And riots in the US have historically done even less because there usually not enough people joining in. I’m saying that we need to wait until that point and that will happen the second they try any take our elections away. That’s why i’m saying we can’t give them any excuse to do so.
If we do then less people will join in when the time comes. The courts have not been entirely toothless. On the contrary, they’re the only ones saving us right now. Not the Republicans or the Dems. Like I said, they have undone almost everything Trump has done and have worked insanely fast.
That’s blatantly not true. Lets not be defeatist. That’s what they want. The courts blocked it instantly because it was clearly bullshit. Don’t give the courts justification, and they will make sure we have elections. If they DO stop elections from happening then yes, riot. But then, and only then.

i guess i somehow expected them to be slightly less transparent about this grift
Sometimes it just gets away from me and I can't catch it before sending.
If things keep going the way they are, it would not surprise me to see him invoke some made up “wartime powers” to indefinitely suspend the elections.
They ARE working.
