I hope he dies publicly and his diaper overfills and explodes onto nearby Republicans.

[-] glimse@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

My friend and I have been saying for years that we don't wish death upon him, we wish utter humiliation. We want him to trip and shit himself while he's walking on stage in full view of the cameras and audience.

On his death bed, he will believe he's dying with dignity. But if he rips his Depends on stage, he's gonna lose his mind.

[-] Mynameisallen@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

I want him to die humiliated and in a gallow

[-] ZephyrXero@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Oh god, if he somehow lost his voice and use of his hands, but was otherwise conscious that would be ideal. Suffering in silence like he caused for so many

In all likelihood they'd promptly revere their spattered articles of clothing as holy relics.

[-] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Can we go for the good old fashioned lightning strike option? Nothing quite like an evil man being killed in a way indistinguishable from being smote by the wrath of an angry god.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Far quicker than he deserves, but you are right about the flashiness of it

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

That is not dead which can eternal lie

And with strange aeons even death may die

What even is "Political Pre-Crime"??

[-] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 week ago

I think I read about it in a book once, where it was called "wrongthink".

[-] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

This is starting to sound double plus un good.

[-] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 2 points 1 week ago

See that's not how you spell it in "wrongthink"

It's ++nogood

Because no is really un, they are pronounced identically and you didn't know that because you aren't as cool as Prez

[-] ZoteTheMighty@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

Pretty sure the term was invented in Minority Report as a legal gray area where it's in many way immoral to prevent crime by arresting people before they commit anything. It's literally a real life example of the Torment Nexus meme.

Tax strike and contribute to the economy as little as you possibly can. Fuck this ghoul and fuck every piece of shit that voted for him.

Serious question, best way to stop paying income taxes?

[-] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago

File a new W4 with your employer. From the instructions:

Complete Form W-4 so that your employer can withhold the correct federal income tax from your pay. If too little is withheld, you will generally owe tax when you file your tax return and may owe a penalty. If too much is withheld, you will generally be due a refund.

If you feel the correct withholding is "$0.00", W4 is how you tell your employer to not withhold anything for taxes.

[-] village604@adultswim.fan 0 points 1 week ago

You can only do that if you had no tax liability the previous year. If you try, your employer will likely kick it back for you to fix, or the IRS will send them a letter telling them to fix it.

[-] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 0 points 1 week ago

Plenty of reasons why you'd have no tax liability in a particular year.

[-] village604@adultswim.fan 0 points 1 week ago

Yes, but you have to have had none the previous year to claim the tax exempt status that lets you avoid any withholding.

[-] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 0 points 1 week ago

Horseshit.

If I'm not going to have a tax liability this year, I don't have to allow withholding this year. Last year's tax liability is irrelevant to the issue. There is nothing in the tax code that requires me to loan money to the IRS that I know they will just have to return to me later.

The reason not to do this is the additional penalty they will assess if my tax liability this year isn't actually zero.

[-] village604@adultswim.fan 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

An employee can also use Form W-4 to tell you not to withhold any federal income tax. To qualify for this exempt status, the employee must have had no tax liability for the previous year and must expect to have no tax liability for the current year.

I'm not sure why you thought I was making this up.

[-] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 1 points 1 week ago

Why do you think I need "exempt status" to achieve zero withholding in a particular year?

[-] Marshezezz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 week ago

This has a wealth of information in actual feasible ideas of what you can do to implement https://sniggle.net/TPL/TaxStrikeTactics/introduction/introduction/

[-] 3abas@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Basically, the government has created a system of automated tax payments and harsh punishments for not paying, and the only way to successfully withhold your taxes is to do it in an organized fashion with a big enough support group that can cover you when the feds come knocking.

[-] surph_ninja@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

If y’all think the Democrats will reverse this, remember that they classified anti-capitalism as extremism under Biden.

[-] edible_funk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Know where I can find out more about that?

[-] surph_ninja@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

It was part of his plan to address “domestic terrorism.” Also don’t forget, Kathy Hochul preceded Trump in sending in the national guard to “fight crime” despite every statistic showing a drop in violent crime.

We are not only at war with Trump and the GOP, but the entire political class.

Neither of those articles mention anti-capitalism.

[-] 3abas@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Try to do more than just cntrl+F.

As defined by the FBI and DHS, anarchist violent extremism encompasses the potentially unlawful use or threat of force or violence in furtherance of an anti-government or anti-authority violent extremist ideology that considers capitalism and centralized government to be unnecessary and oppressive.

Work backwards from that: if you're a leftist who considers capitalism to be oppressive, and you "threaten" to use your force (applying pressure, withholding labor, explicitly not violence as implied by "force or violence) to challenge government authority, congratulations, you're an anarchist violent criminal!

[-] zeezee@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 week ago

Not true?

Straight from the Politico article:

The document includes just one mention of “anarchist violent extremists” — the term the FBI uses when describing terror threats from people who view “capitalism and centralized government to be unnecessary and oppressive,” according to a May 2021 threat assessment.

But in congressional hearings, FBI Director Christopher Wray — who Biden chose to keep in place, restoring a tradition Trump broke — has extensively discussed the bureau’s work investigating people in that category.

“Antifa is a real thing,” Wray added at that hearing. “It’s not a group or an organization, it’s a movement or an ideology, maybe one way of thinking of it, and we have quite a number — and I’ve said this consistently since my first time appearing before this committee — we have any number of properly predicated investigations into what we would describe as violent anarchist extremists. Some of those individuals self-identify with antifa.”

He can drink a cup of my pre-cum.

Don't waste something so precious on him!

The rest of us have classified djt as a pre- and current criminal.

He looks like he aged another 10 years since he got elected. Being a hateful shit does that.

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 week ago

Every president has aged prematurely. I guess being incredibly lazy doesn't change that.

[-] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week ago

Always has unofficially been just saying the quiet part out loud,

[-] Wilco@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 week ago

"Pre-Crime"? This dumb mother fucker has watched Minority Report too many times. Try arresting someone for a future crime, the arrest is illegal and can legally be fought with force ... this means no resist charges and the like. IMO, no real police officer would try it ... that leaves "ice" to get smashed up.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Been watching capitalism fail my entire life.

So I'm pretty anti-capitalism. Lock me up.

I mean, I believe a heavily regulated form of capitalism can work and be beneficial to all, but America is nowhere near having that kind of capitalism. We're spiraling off in the total opposite direction.

[-] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

That means that he's libel whenever and wherever a capitalist can show that his policies harm profits.

[-] very_well_lost@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Trump is pre, peri and post-criminal.
