I don't know what PBD is, or who Andrew Tate is, I don't care for Carlson, but I like Rogan and Oliver Anthony. I think it's a good song, his interviews make me like him even more. Just b/c he's a white guy from a small town doesn't make him a bad person.

As the old leftest saying goes: “If the people will lead, the leaders will follow.”

All you have to do is vote out the incumbents. The problem is most people think THEIR incumbent is ok.

Most of the angriest, loudest, most aggrieved people (on here) drive new trucks, take multiple vacations each year, and live in decent houses in the suburbs. They're not about to burn anything down, figuratively or literally.

100% this. No one is going to give up their modern conveniences to do a single thing. It is amazing how much privacy we’ve given up to have these little gadgets in our hands.

And, on the off chance something does happen- you realize that modern artillery has a 26 mile range and is GPS guided?

The leader of the insurgents would get wiped off the face of the neighborhood without a single piece of Hardie board collateral damage.

There is too much money in the global economy to change much- no one controlling hundreds of billons of dollars wants to upset the apple cart.

Is all arty a Copperhead now?

I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It’s a depression. Everybody’s out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel’s worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there’s nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there’s no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that’s the way it’s supposed to be.

We know things are bad – worse than bad. They’re crazy. It’s like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don’t go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is: ‘Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my iphone and my TikTok and my streaming service and I won’t say anything. Just leave us alone.’

Well, I’m not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get MAD! I don’t want you to protest. I don’t want you to riot – I don’t want you to write to your congressman, because I wouldn’t know what to tell you to write. I don’t know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you’ve got to get mad. You’ve got to say: ‘I’m a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!’

So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’

First anyone who is getting rich on sowing frustration and animosity ain’t going to actually upset the gravy train by doing anything useful.

Second, as much as y’all like to post all the incidents, you would think you would know what the oncoming revolution looks like. It isn’t pretty. It is people realizing living outside of society isn’t any worse than living at its margins, so they take what the want in any way they can, usually involving theft both of goods but also via hacking and ransoming. Plenty of involved a gun. Some doesn’t need that.

Just don’t think the shifting of a society is going to be fun to live through. It is only after the initial bloodshed and anarchy that people gain some perspective again and work towards a better future. Be careful what you wish for.

US could start to solve a number of problems by simply passing a constitutional amendment that no person can hold the same office, from local to federal, more than two terms. They can run for a different office, but they won’t be allowed to get comfortable and rich in their fiefdom. The problem with politics is neither side wants to solve any problems-they wouldn’t have anything to run against. Making it more difficult for people to make a career out of any office, we might actually get some problemsolvers.

Please keep this crazy dumb shite on the poli board.
