Farming through the apocalypse in backwoods Maine. Leftist, not liberal. Rural crafts enthusiast, maker of things. Never enough time in a day
Not NAFO or Red/BlueMAGA tolerant. The purpose of a system is what it does. Electoral politics brought us here
It would galvanize them to be as violent as possible bc it would make even having an election an existential threat to them all. We can't let that dissuade us but we do need to be realistic about how the hyper-violent right will react to the threat of consequences

The implications of this are bleak AF. A murder-suicide mindset.
Conservative sister admitted yesterday that Trump is doing P2025 and revoking habeus corpus only produces bad outcomes. A collapse under dominionist techno-theocracy is a worst-case scenario most can't imagine

From the perspective of capital, "enslaved" is the most efficient thing a person can be. And, since our Federal Branch of Sabotage Destruction & Punishment is opposed to all other kinds of efficiency imaginable, I'd must conclude that it is enslavement that it means when it talks about efficiency.

There are +750 US billionaires. Pretending like all our problems stem from foreign billionaires is deflecting from the problem. We've seen them buy the SC, Congress, and the WH. Not defending Putin, but we have enough evil mosters right here at home

The rules are different at the top. The people caving aren't being threatened with the same physical violence us peons get threatened with, the violence of the rich involves $. They're folding to protect their wealth

They're slowly boiling us frogs. Taking out foriegn born leadership of opposition movements and normalizing people being disappeared while also quietly ignoring courts. Pushing, but not hard enough to elicit a strong backlash

Lmao oh, you're not just MAGA-proudly ignorant you're also obnoxious?!? What a treat!

On a tangential note I was reminded of earlier: CD3WD project. ~900 technical documents about sustainable development for the 3rd world. Everything from community heath to education to ag processing. It doesn't all apply to us but there's a lot of solid info

Have fun but I've seen this episode before. I hope I'm wrong, but I find it best to expect the worst wrt these ghouls. Your mileage might vary

I have daypacks and backpacking packs. I'll have to find the brand on some but some are Lowe Alpine, Arcteryx. My idea is varied by scale/possible duration of emergency. Daypack is 3 days worth except H2O. Bigger packs are limited by food, fuel, H2O. I keep all that sort of gear in 2 footlockers

With range and accuracy to be well outside reasonable awareness. You'd never evwn hear the shot. So, I don't worry about that bc like an asteriod, there's no solution. Raiders consuming the supplies in a widening area under constant attrition/turf war = not viable very long

I find thinking through scenarios before living them helps me considerably. Having an idea of how to get through it without the added stress of living it gives you so much more flexibility. I refer to your point about militias as the "sniper paradox". Millions of rifles in US 1/

Lmao y'all are still using this BS excuse after leftists have correctly predicted political outcomes? Sounds like you're just repeating what highly paid propagandists have told you to think and not how things actually work but it's working great so keep it up, genius

Kneecapped while Manchin kept his committee chair and his wife got, and kept, her appointed position she wasn't qualified for? Lol you REALLY need to be more critical of those in power

IDGAF. Dems blew $1B in 100 days and it's no secret they weren't trying to spend it wisely
February 24, 2025 at 9:53 PM
Uh, they don't need $ to do the goddamned jobs they were hired to do. Why is this so fucking incomprehensible for liberals?
February 24, 2025 at 9:50 PM
Did you fucking sleep through the GOP obstructing everything for the last 16 years?!? There's a game plan already established. Them doing nothing is a policy choice
