I understand your pain here. I deal with similar things

I have no faith it will end before the new year. They are hoping they can force Grijalva to resign before she can be sworn in

We the people are expendable to them all. Our well-being isn't a factor in their decision making.

If enough of us die, they'll have more leverage in the midterms...

One word: Charlottesville.

My ancestors suffered and bled to keep Nazis from marching on American soil. I won't let their sacrifice be in vain

Couldn't they just give him the one from Burger King and save time

Of theofascist indoctrination and make re establishment of MAGA exponentially more difficult

Talking points with no doctrinal connection to Christianity as it was known before 1840. While the establishment clause doesn't allow the banning of such heresies, the military can refuse them chaplaincy and they can be delisted from recognized denominations federally. This would choke the root

Must not only ride, but be driven into the sunset a final time.

This extends to religion as well. Allowing heretical churches( those not Catholic, Orthodox, Episcopal, or Lutheran) to have 501(c)3 status only funds the evangelical political machine. The Baptist churches teach only Republican

This gave direct rise to the Reagan era and its successor, MAGA. To keep this from recurring, the good ol' boy, redneck identity itself must be abolished in the minds of America. Rural communities cannot be allowed to continue in this set of cultural norms. For the greater good, the cowboy ideal..

That sounds extreme, but normalizing the neo confederate cultural identity and allowing things like the Dukes of Hazzard and the 700 club to air nationwide, and giving air time to songs like Sweet Home Alabama generated sympathy for the lost cause myth and Southern conservatives in general.

Which is why I believe we need to reduce their cultural footprint in the aftermath. Shutter Fox/Newsmax/OAN. Crackdown on televangelists and buying air time. Put extra taxes on country music stations. Pull the plug on "classic tv" stations. Pop their cultural bubble and erase "southern" influences

Thanks! That seems dumb, but I get the appeal
October 23, 2025 at 2:21 PM
If we survive this, we need a massive overhaul of our system at the Constitutional level to prevent anything like this ever again.

We also need to shut down the masses of enablers both media and average people who propelled us into this new dark age. The culture that raised MAGA must be erased

Violence? Especially in video games for legal reasons...

Not to sound dumb, but what's a "blind bag?"
October 23, 2025 at 2:10 PM
But is he all of them? I don't see any major dissent there. Nothing to make me think they'll choose the Constitution over the President.

Don't panic, but this is no time for optimism. This is a worst case scenario playing out and needs to be treated as such. I have no benefit of the doubt to give
