Ok so round them all up for the threats. We're starting to run out of identified insurrectionalist let's start sending these fucks to jail too. There is no way they don't know who they are if 30 seconds of torrenting can lead to emails sent directly to me calling for me to stop if I forget my VPN. Those idiots don't even know what VPN stands for.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Get a VPN with split tunneling , always on, and start on boot. Pair that with qbittorrent, which has a setting in the options to allow you to only use the VPN network. No more having to remember with that setup. Traffic won't flow until the VPN connection is established, then torrent traffic will only go over the VPN, and the split tunnel means your regular traffic can remain off the VPN if you want.
And that's a solid piece of advice. I'm going to look into that ...
Yeah you don’t even need to do the whole split VPN thing - unless you want to, that does seem kinda cool. You can just tether your bit torrent to only work when your VPN client connection is active. I’m new at this and was super easy to set up.
This is what I do. Works great.
Some VPN softwares like Nord can assign white or black lists for the VPN.
What's a good split tunnel VPN with high bandwidth for torrenting goodness?
I've had good results with both Nord and Proton but if you're going to pay for it I'd suggest proton because of the other benefits you get access to. If you want 'the most anonymous' then mullvad is the way to go, but I can't say whether or not torrenting on mullvad is effective as I've not done that.
What VPN do you recommend? I'm just getting into torrenting myself, and this is how I was planning to run it, since I'll be torrenting on my main PC for now
I use windscribe. They have a build a plan option that let's you pick a handful of locations with unlimited data for 3$ a month. I've used it since January 2020.
This is the way.
This ends when we kill these f–kers
And yeah, just for anyone wondering. This is a violation of 18 USC § 875(d). Literally saying that about judges carrying out their duties is an actual violation of Federal law punishable by about a year in prison for first offense. Not to mention that it can be construed as obstruction of justice (if you live within the State), which carries it's own penalties.
...
Because Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses
UGH
We’re starting to run out of identified insurrectionalist
Don't you worry, Mike Johnson's stupidity combined with AI deblurring tools are about to give us a ton of new video to pick through.
Charging people with the crimes they commit regardless of race or societal status is just too unamerican for our law enforcement.
Besides they won't get that fascist dictatorship they want so bad if they don't let these idiots slide
Hopefully they catch these terrorists and charge them with felonies, then yall-qaeda will learn real fast the right bear arms can in fact be infringed.
I wish. They'll just let them talk until they shoot up a place.
After all the Jan6 and threats to politicians, the worst you can get is a few years, which will be a worthy "sacrifice" for these idiots
Tell that to Ashley Babbitt.
Nothing like people incited to violence making threats as a way to defend Trumps version that he didn't incite a violent insurrection.
They are too ignorant to realize this only reinforces the fact that this was the correct decision, terrorists be damned.
But now they think they're being denied legal access to their own system so why would they care how we interpret events?
They need to be allowed to establish a separate country so everyone can live in peace again. It's the only way.
Lol what?
There are no empty spots for them to claim, and I highly doubt you can draw a line anywhere that would work. They tried that with India/Pakistan and it was an absolute cluster.
This isn't like the civil war where it was regional. This is a lifestyle divide.
Surely after you rule against Trump you just update the office phone tree: to leave death threats please press 1, all others continuing holding.
"Please hold while I connect you to the nearest FBI field office"
Who could've thunk that the terrorists we've been fighting all this time are also largely in America too?
And they're largely white?
If Jan 6th, 2021 told us anything...yes.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In the 24 hours since the Colorado Supreme Court kicked former President Donald Trump off the state's Republican primary ballot, social media outlets have been flooded with threats against the justices who ruled in the case, according to a report obtained by NBC News.
Advance Democracy, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that conducts public interest research, identified "significant violent rhetoric" against the justices and Democrats, often in direct response to Trump's posts about the ruling on his platform Truth Social.
Posts — whose images and links were included in the report — noted a variety of methods that could be used to kill those perceived as Trump's enemies: hollow-point bullets, rifles, rope, bombs.
A federal appeals court pointed out the pattern when it upheld a narrowed gag order against Trump in his election interference case this month, noting that those he publicly targets are often threatened and harassed.
Daniel J. Jones, the president Advance Democracy, the group that compiled the report, said the consistency of the violent threats and rhetoric was especially concerning.
"Trump’s statements, which have sought to delegitimize and politicize the actions of the courts, is serving as a key driver of the violent rhetoric.
The original article contains 515 words, the summary contains 196 words. Saved 62%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
I'm not worried. Justices face and expect radical threats all the time.
People threaten others, and then we have the apologists.
its like in Greece, where they threaten the referees after the match.
Yeah, everyone knows you threaten them before the match.
But I guess it’s fitting for people that stage an insurrection after losing an election.
