Just as they are always meant to write "The suspect" not "The criminal".

For now, anyway. Due process and the presumption of innocence are still holding up, but the fascists are working hard on that one.

Initially, wasn't Occupy a protest about the post-recession bank bailouts? Then the production team for Good Morning America put a self-proclaimed representative of Occupy, a "female-presenting person" named Ketchup, in the studio to ask them questions about it, and they had no media coaching whatsoever.

Carl Schmitt literally wrote the book on fascism as an ideology. Hell, he was even in the Nazi Party, sort of like the Curtis Yarvin of his time. Which is interesting because Yarvin kind of idolizes Schmitt and quotes him frequently. Being in the Nazi Party didn't last very long, though, as he was forewarned that soon he was to be ousted from his role in the Party, as the regime no longer had need of philosophers, and he was also concerned that he would be outed as a Hegelian.

This. Violence against fascists isn't really violence, it's enforcement of the societal End User License Agreement.

Fascists only know one language, and that is violence. They firmly believe "Might makes right" and so, we must show them strength such that they fear to challenge us ever again.

Ooh I should send one, too. Call him out for a little 1v1 and see if he shows up or if Feds do.

Not all gun owners like the current situation.

Source: Gun Owner, do not like current situation. There's a vast difference between a responsible gun owner and those ammosexuals who just want to be given an excuse to open fire at anything.

Yeah, I myself feel like if I could do shadow cloning, Naruto style,(situational clones that stop existing once the task is done) I'd absolutely use it to tag team difficult tasks around the house. I have ADHD and take Adderall, though. Would my clone also be on Adderall, as well? We get shit done, then they all disappear, leaving the original, me.

No, they absolutely can help being assholes. But for them it's not enough to win, those they see as "losers" must suffer.

Bro, I have just seen so much bad shit happen for months and all my girlfriend will say is, "Something's gonna happen, something is coming, I'm believing and praying and everything is gonna work out and be okay" and inside, I'm screaming like Atreus from God of War (2016), "HOW DO YOU KNOW?!"

Nah, it's not that they can't afford professional artists, it's that they don't want to.

This is just a meme, but it does touch on something important. There's a journalist by the name of Douglas Rushkoff. He put out a book last year titled, Survival of the Richest: Escape Fantasies of the Tech Billionaire Elite, and he was invited by a group of 5 anonymous tech oligarchs out to the desert to talk about surviving what they call "The Event", or when the consequences of their actions finally catch up to them.

He also says at the core of their desire to escape it is rooted in something he calls "The Mindset", which is belief that with enough money and technology, wealthy men can live as gods, and transcend the calamities and tribulations that befall us mere mortals.

"The Mindset" is rooted in empirical science, that human beings are nothing more than the sum total of their chemical components, and that's it, and only the "truly superior" (Billionaire Tech Broligarchs) understand that.

 
 
 

Typically, events such as these are organized by the Koch Family. They handle the nuts-and-bolts and technical end of things. Trump's campaign may have called this meeting, but I guarantee the Kochs will be providing the support.

Don't expect any leaks. They take extreme measures to prevent leaks:

1.) The guest list is kept a closely guarded secret, and has pictures to prevent impostors.

2.) The location where the conference will take place, usually a swanky, secluded resort, is also kept secret, and accepting an invite means you are also sworn to secrecy, as the location will not be told to you until you accept the invitation.

3.) The resort staff is screened and work assignments are changed to be far from the actual events and the rooms of the attendees.

4.) They routinely sweep for bugs and listening devices, and use white noise emitters to throw off parabolics.

5.) Any paper materials, either distributed by the event host or personal notes of the attendees, of the event are confiscated and destroyed.

They basically follow all the same rules that might be in place at a convention for people with TS/SCI clearance and the convention hall is a massive SCIF. But full of people plotting to undermine our democracy.

 

They do this all the time. Maybe Biden should call their bluff, execute his powers as Commander in Chief, and order the National Guard in Texas to turn on State Police.
