I wonder at what point people are going to use force to stop this coup

Historically, it should start in about 30 days, or so, internally with rapid succession authoritarianism settling in.

Then, it takes a year or so after the first territorial grab. The first one is called "appeasement" strategy.

After that, then the rest of the world bombs us into desolation.

Is DEI also vaporware?

Generally speaking... I think it's generic enough to be applicable to most communities in the US.

What are the plans for a strike fund, or how will people have their material needs met, while on strike?

[–] ubergeek@lemmy.today 7 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I know this wasn't a reply to me, but here's mine:

And what’s your plan exactly?

Arm my neighbors. Host regular trainings for firearms. Host regular first aid training. Start growing more food. Help my neighbors grow more food. Learn and share DIY skills with my neighbors. Build up mutual aid networks in place, with my neighbors.

Basically, whatever it takes to make myself, and my community less reliant on the state, and therefore more resilient.

Good. A unipolar globe is never good for anyone, except oligarchs. I mean, they love monopolies, as long as they control the monopoly.

What’s up whit this Gadsden flag militia bullshit in left spaces after Trump?

What Gadsen flag bullshit? I mean, hell, did you ever thing the working class was supposed to be disarmed? Something something frustrating such efforts, with force, if necessary.

Who are we going to arm? Undocumented people?

Yes.

Trans people?

Yes

And they’re going to shoot who?

Hopefully, nobody, like what happened in Dallas when cops showed up to empty a homeless camp. Armed resistance showed up, and stopped them before they started.

what’s the plan General?

No gods, no masters, no idols. Find your own affinity group, and figure out the plan for your affinity group. The vanguards aren't going to help you. The government isn't going to help you. You and your community will be the best ones to figure out how and why and when for your resistance.

Don't rule out civil servants. One thing that's great about civil service is plenty of PTO available to hit the range.

I've been out shooting, and working on my shooting drills a lot over the past month. Also been introducing more people to firearms, and hosting some first aid classes (Stop the Bleed and CPR). What have you been doing over the past month?

Also fuck him for not endorsing the candidate who, while not necessarily a friend of unions, certainly wouldn’t have been actively working against them.

Biden, however, was actively working against the union workers... And Harris said she would have done the same thing.

It goes back to while Trump was lying about intent to solve the problems, he at least stated publicly the problems were real.

And it goes back to Dems thinking people owe them their votes, rather than working hard to earn the votes.

It is for Trump. He routinely ignores contractually responsibilities on his part.

Something about leopards and faces

They always were.
