Nothing less will soothe the narcissistic injury of rejection.

Gallows? Just a decoration like a big floral arrangement.

It would be a real benefit to the country if, say, 100 or so influential "Republicans" left the party. Maybe some elected officials like Mitt Romney or Adam Kinzinger, maybe some figureheads like Jeb! Bush or Arnold Schwarzenegger (the country's best Republican). Maybe even George W, and Laura Bush.

But if they all did it at the same time, together, I think that would be good for America.

Remember, these are folks like Bannon. Their vision doesn't extend beyond "burn it all down".

Maybe if we just, "Shout, shout, let it all out..." I'm sure I could revise the lyrics for this! :-)

Me too. I have two stations on Sirius that I listen to while I work (from home) 80s on 8 and Sirius leftwing. Occasionally if I need something kickass I'll go to one of the 60s/70s hard rocking channels, the good stuff.

They will do it again because they haven't stopped believing in the Big Lie, AND because they know that as long as they keep persisting, EVENTUALLY their coup will succeed.

I say let's stop this before it really becomes a problem. By any means necessary.

I did the Heights, I did Jerusalem, and I did IranBetting he doesn't even know what he did in any of those circumstances.

The vote share doesn't seem to change much - do they lose approximately the same amount from the center that they gain from the right fringe?

To minimize the risk of losing the narrative to “This is Joe Biden’s America” as a repressive police state (the MAGAts will eat that shit in a heartbeat,) we need to start exposing the insurrectionists for who they really are so everyone can see we’re not arresting little innocent angels. They’re already painting a picture of Ashli Babbitt as a heroine who gave her life selflessly for liberty.

There’s enough juicy shit to dig up on these traitors and we should use it. They are all deplorables, they’re all horrible humans in every sense of the word, and they deserve whatever comes to them as a result of their actions. We need to ensure the public doesn’t think they’re the victims here because they sure-as-shit are not. The right is very good at creating narratives. We need to up our game if we want to win.

One thing that works in favor of sane people is that most of the ringleaders are straight up grifters. Alexander, Rhodes, Tarrio were all dipping into the till. Fracture the movement by playing this up. Point out that the footsoldiers are the ones doing time.

Yes. Tokyo Drift is awful, by F&F standards.
