  • Did I hit a nerve, princess?

  • It sounds like you opposed that plan not 6 comments ago:

    if your suggestion is to vote yourself out of it, then kindly fuck off

  • This administration is playing with fire by trying to blame this on the gun that the man was legally carrying and licensed to own.

    The 2A people in MAGA are not happy, there's a little civil war brewing in r/conservative between the bots and the 2A supporters.

  • OC

  • Oh ok, so how do we 'get rid' of them?

  • If you get so triggered when people point out that you're wrong, maybe you should spend more time reading a book and less time trying to be insulting.

    Your comments read like you're an angsty teenager who is incapable of having a conversation like an adult.

  • Ok, done.

    Trump is still in office.

    Next step?

  • Thanks for the write up, I was actually planning to launch using Heroic, just wasn’t sure if games through Wine needed the C:\ drive prefix.

    It creates a virtual C:\ drive for the programs in the bottle. Externally it doesn't matter where it is as long as your launch script/application knows where it is.

  • Also, is Faux a Bomb Rush Cyberfunk reference?

    Nah, I literally just randomed some dictionary words together until something looked acceptable.

    Though, looking at the game I'm getting Jet Set Radio Future vibes from it (cellshading is a great art style imo)

  • One of the only Uncle Ruckus quotes that can be used by a pasty white southern guy...

  • Not really. For the purposes of this conversation that doesn’t matter at all.

    It does, because the statement that people are taking issue with:

    Smart glasses and hidden cameras are two different products.

    Is objectively correct and that was the only point they were trying to make. They were not claiming that it makes filming okay or that hidden cameras are not a problem.

    The people are not responding to the actual words written by the person, they're replying the the subtext that they feel was implied.

  • While the National Guard is prohibited from performing law enforcement on behalf of the President under the Posse Comitatus Act, the governor of the state they’re operating in can deputies them.for law enforcement.

    Yes.

    He doesn’t need to wage war on ICE. He just needs them to be chaparroned by armed Nation Guard troops anywhere they go, and have them arrest ICE goons when they violate the law. If ICE gets proper judicial warrants and executes them lawfully, then there shouldn’t be any problems.

    That isn't what the person that I replied to was suggesting, nor what I was replying to.

    If the Governor decided to "Order them by threat of force" to leave MN then he was be operating outside of his authority and would be ignored. If he attempted to use force against federal forces in an attempt to make them leave then he would be in armed rebellion against the US and would be arrested.

    The only thing protecting him, the protestors, etc, is that they have not give Trump a reason to fabricate an excuse to use the Insurrection act that would survive a Federal court issuing a TRO. The protests have been peaceful (outside of a few ICE agents rioting with tear gas and less lethal munitions) and the public statements by officials have been measured so as to not allow them the slightest excuse that would stand up in court. The Trump admin's only move here is to try to make inflammatory statements.

    They don't have any more ICE agents (and recruitment is drying up) that is why this is happening only in one place, this is everything they can muster. So they're putting everything into one place to both punish MN people for voting against him and to create a violent reality TV show that keeps everyone tuned in instead of talking about the Epstein files, or Trump's billion dollar profits from corruption, or the exploding cost of food, or the shitty foreign policy disaster that he's created.

    The protests and the terrible PR skills of the administration are showing effect. Go look at any reputable polling, Trump has always been unpopular outside of his base but now he is starting to lose support among his actual base. Right now, people are sickened by the attack and the government's response blaming him owning a gun. 2nd Amendment supporters have typically been Trump supporters but they have broken with him because of the administration's framing of 'he had a gun and therefore deserved to die'. Even the NRA tweeted out against this framing.

    Trump is tapped out, he's hired every white supremacist and opportunist and only has a few thousand people to muster that will do the violence that he wants and even that is backfiring on him. He has been unable to fabricate other distractions (Greenland, Canada, Venezuela, etc) and has been incompetent in handling emerging events leading to even more backlash.

    People framing this like this is our last chance and only violence or armed rebellion will save us are outside agitators or the useful idiots that they control. This framing is based on the ICE circus in MN and social media propaganda, not reality.

    In reality, Trump is out of troops, out of support, dying in the polls (and possibly IRL) and is running out of allies, like MTG, as more Rs smell the blood in the water and jump ship. Every major public case in the courts have gone against him, he's lost the VAST majority of other cases (source: https://www.lawfaremedia.org/projects-series/trials-of-the-trump-administration), his tariffs have pissed off the entire world and their response is targeted at his rich supporters (i.e. Jack Daniels distillery boycott).

    The only thing that he can hope for is to find an excuse to invoke the Insurrection act so that it won't be immediately blocked by a Federal Judge. Everyone that is here pushing for violence is trying to create the only out that Trump has left.

    Trump isn't all powerful, he's playing the media game and has an army of bots from the various dictators around the world who want to see the US fail.

  • You're right, I'm an idiot. Voting doesn't work.

    Tell us the plan, then, what should we do?

    Don't be a coward lay out the violence that you want to see us do to one another.

    I guarantee you that if this devolves into violence and the fascists are able to use that to skip elections then you will be part of the 51st state, dead in an air strike or hunted down and killed while being labeled a 'terrorist' on the news based on your social media posts.

  • You're sure beating up those strawmen positions that I never stated or even believe.

  • If you think that judges will make a difference then I can only tell you to get your head out of your ass, Maga politicians and organizations have been ignoring one court order after another, or get the supreme court to just say it’s fine.

    This is just nonsense and not based in reality.

    Here is the list of every single case involving the Trump administration: https://www.lawfaremedia.org/projects-series/trials-of-the-trump-administration/tracking-trump-administration-litigation The vast majority of cases are losses and denied on appeal.

    Are there still troops in California after the judge ordered them out? Is Kilmar Garcia still in CECOT after a judge ordered him returned? Has Mahmoud Khalil been deported despite a court order?

    No, because the court orders are being followed. Yes, the US Justice Department lawyers do everything they can to avoid following them but they cannot tell a Judge no and the Judge is overseeing the case until their orders are followed.

    You're not arguing based on reality, you're arguing based on social media optics.

    I don’t know what it’ll take to fix this, but asking kindly will not suffice, that much is clear

    "I'm not recommending violence, but nothing else will work"

    Having an Impeachment trial, and blocking funding for DHS isn't 'asking nicely' these are the powers that check the Executive branch in the US system of government.

    If you don't believe in that system of government then you're no better than the alt-right fascists and are allied with enemies of the US.

  • So what was January 6th to you? It’s like someone missed killing someone else and your response to just tell them you got your eyes on them and will totally bring the hammer down after they finally succeed in killing someone.

    They failed and we sent thousands of people involved in the conspiracy to prison. Elsewhere the systems of elections and government withstood every attempt the Trump administration to change things. The systems worked.

    You're promoting the idea that those system are going to fail and therefore we should not even try and, instead we should <vague plan, but violence>.

    There is no evidence of that outside of the incessant fear mongering on social media that you are taking part in.

    The Judicial system has restrained Trump time and time again and the only reason there are not more widespread rulings is because the only entity with standing to sue the administration (the Legislative branch) is being held paralyzed by a very tiny group of people in Congress and those people are up for re-election.

    Those people can be voted out and Congress has both the standing to sue and compel the Executive branch via court orders and the ability to impeach and remove Executive or Judicial branch members.

    Let's hear your plan, take me through the steps of how you see this issue solved in a way that is more sure than the system that we've used for centuries.
