Elon wishes to be Emperor of Mankind.
His heresy must fail.
No dictators in America.
Only traitors who want to be dictators.
And it's up the people to decide what they want.
Jeff Bezos is a pussy.
They've told us what they're going to (and want to) do every step of the way.
But Trump fans pretend stuff isn't going to happen... even when it's literally happening
On top of that, Trump is 100% going to try to stay for another term
I do not promote violence. You should not commit violence. It is generally not worth it. Mmkay? Want that to be 100% clear. Additionally, violence is what Trump wants so he has an excuse to declare martial law/suspend elections/etc. It's very obvious. Violence = bad.
All that said, unless America lets itself descend into the authoritarian pit, I don't see any way out that won't involve violence at some point/level. We are beyond what was happening during the civil rights era. These people aren't interested in compromise and working together. They want to dismantle America's culture of diversity to replace it with their own.
I'm not sure there are any other methods that work if it comes down to it. Even people on the left are in denial; these people aren't joking about wanting to attack libs. They're actively preparing for it by calling all libs mentally ill, or that liberalism is a disease, etc.
Do you see what I'm saying? How are you going to try to argue with some of these people? Not all republicans are all in on this - but there's enough in power that this is very, very dangerous
All I can say is that I truly hope the courts enforce the constitution. Bring those people back and give them due process. I don't want them deported, but if that ends up happening, at least it's legal &... I struggle to say humane.
No one said that. As the others pointed out, I'm saying have a plan.
The go-to example is the French Revolution. There was no plan for after they eliminated the "bad guys," and they ended up executing mostly non-rich folk. Saw a stat elsewhere that it may have been as few as 20% of victims were the rich.
Do we really want 80% of the people hurt by a revolution to be the common folk? If that's what you wanted you might as well stick with the current status quo. You're getting it.
I'm not going to argue further with you as the others have already done so well enough. I am only saying: have a plan, or things very well could go even worse
The number of peaceful revolutions we can unfortunately count on one hand. We can strive for to -but we have to be realistic
However there also has to be a plan. Simply overthrowing the existing rule allows chaos & someone worse to assume power
While I hear you, and there are definitely some voters that will never, ever, ever change their mind - I encourage you to direct this energy toward the elected ones who continue to lie to their base and capitulate to the billionaires/Russia/etc.
