Chinga la migra
... with the same unlubed dildo of consequences that's waiting on Putin, Trump, and a bunch of Epstein accomplices.
Ratas
It took me a moment to remember that ratas is Spanish for rats so I was wondering what Estonian politician Jüri Ratas has anything to do with this, given that he's more of a bag of hot air than a dictator.
ICE, DHS, and Border Patrol coming in and invading our blue cities, alongside the National Guard sent from red states to blue states sounds like what exactly? A civil war.
But only one side it participating, that being the red state invaders. Unless there were at least one murked ICE agent by an organized attack, or a blue state pulled an offensive maneuver, there's no revolution here.
This article states it's witnessing revolution, when this country hasn't even organized a GENERAL STRIKE by now. Should've happened before Chuck Schumer cucked us out during the government shutdown.
We have some wins to be projected thanks to elections, but an article titled like this is just particularly useless hopium, and gets in the way of the real deal if there are no more free and fair elections.
Revolution seems to ne conflated with an angry tweet while in line at the drive thru at Burger King.
American revolution? They should be talking about a civil war.
We need another underground railroad at this point.
I guess if you believe that the American war for Independence was a "people's revolution", then anything makes sense.
The American Revolution happened because Americans didn't want to repay Britain for its help in the French and Indian War.
We've been dying for tax cuts for our rulers ever since the country's inception.
These are the titles I like to see!
That's why they used it despite the fact it's absolute bullshit - we're nowhere near an actual revolution because we're too distracted by shit like social media to get wound up enough.
Revolution is in the air.
Sure, and any day now I'm going to lay a giant golden egg and fly away on my skydragon to never-never-land where I'll live with elves.
Meanwhile some mysterious, highly charismatic and intelligent stranger we never met nor talked about will magically appear and have a full set of perfect progressive values that everyone can agree on and yet have no qualms about using violence to achieve those values. We will have clear-cut borders and divides between the people who are opposed to the new regime and those mighty leftist warriors who always march-lockstep with whatever leader we elect.
In today's western democracies leader cults and charismatic authoritarianism tends to cluster on the right, not the left, despite what the "both sides!" people want to believe.
Donald Trump is the obvious endpoint of pseudopopulist anti-intellectual conservatism. Thankfully the US got there first, so we can all see where the conservatives around the world are headed.
