You know, they're halfway there. Protests against the owning class that appeal to their better angels absolutely don't work. When your entire idea of what a "protest" is is standing around in your state-approved square and not even engaging in the most mild of civil disobedience, let alone disruption of the lives and profits of the owning class, protesting is almost completely worthless.

Of course, if they reflected on the prompt and how the people of France do actual civil disobedience, they might come to the fuller conclusion.

How fucking hard is it to remember that Hitler never won an election? It's such an integral component of what happened in terms of even a lib understanding of "It could happen here".

If an election is nothing but a referendum on whether you will have effectively the same referendum in four years, you don't actually have a democracy or even elections in any substantial sense, just elections as a consumer lifestyle aesthetic.

If you think that's bad, be grateful you aren't in the anime discourse about how disliking harems is poly-phobic.

This is just begging for a guessing game. If not the thing itself, the question you posted here is a good thing to present to your therapist. Maybe it will help you tell them the thing itself, or at least make progress in this genre of issue.

I think the actually interesting part of this is how delicately they insist Republicans be handled vs the barbarism they recommend against other countries (or will at least justify once the barbarism has been done). Trump? Must be protected. Qaddafi? Tortured to death in a hole in the ground. Democracy.

Alright, but how do you feel being a slave to 9 elders in robes just deciding whatever owns the libs is law that supercedes that of nominally elected officials?

Other reporting held that Hunter was one of Biden's strongest supporters to stay in the campaign.

Trump will already have that list if elected regardless, by merit of entering the same office that Biden used to assemble the list. Real blackmail is the security state shit he's already been doing.

That's just called using heuristics, friend, though if ADHD impeded their progress in math, maybe ADHD people rely more on heuristics than neurotypicals do.
