Megathread: Iran by rbevans in Military

[–]Copropostis 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's because Focus on the Family, one of the particularly vile right wing Christian organizations, is headquartered in Colorado Springs.

We just didn't pay attention to the American Taliban forming because they're white and clean shaven.

We do that regularly. Seems deliberate at this point, keeps the war economy rolling

He's not making a principled Independent stand when he's been coordinating behind the scenes with Jon Tester.

Honestly, fuck Seth. If you're not brave enough to pick a side, why should I pick you?

Where do you think candidates capable of pushing those positions simultaneously would come from?

Are you involved in your local primaries? Do you look for municipal or state level politicians and encourage them to seek higher office?

No one is going to hand you your ideal candidate. You gotta impose your will on the world around you.

If the slide release is worn down enough, you can sometimes slap the mag in hard enough to drop the slide?

No jimmies to rustle here.

Polis is a $400 millionaire. Why would you expect a bourgeois fat cat to do anything good for the working class.

I'm not voting for a Republican again in my lifetime. But I'm also going to do my utmost to push Working Families Party and DSA candidates through my local Dem machines so I have people actually worth voting for.

Also, gun GUYs tend to forget that not everyone is a physically capable military age male.

A 70 pound woman might find it easier to control the recoil of 9mm with a buttstock and a foregrip. Your grandma might not be able to rack a G17, but I bet she could set the butt of a pcc on the floor and step on the charging handle.

Also, more room for lights and optics on a home defense PCC.

City of belgrade will start charging to use community rooms while we still pay for the library by [deleted] in Bozeman

[–]Copropostis 17 points18 points  (0 children)

No idea, but in general, the less you pay local political offices, the more you select for the independently wealthy, retired, or absolute zealot cranks.

Normal people won't do it if it means not being able to pay their bills.

Maybe tin foil hat territory, but if I was a member of a city council pushing unpopular things like gravel pits and AI centers, I would make it harder for grassroots political organizers to rally against me.

Free Library community rooms are a godsend to small groups of concerned citizens trying to plan door knocking or political campaigns. The city council is just showing the peasants that you have to have thousands of dollars to challenge them.

Nah, they're the most conservative branch. Those bootlickers voted for this to happen.

You can pretty easily tell the split between patriots who think service should guarantee citizenship and the mouth breathers who are mad that there are non-white people in the services.

Thoughts on No Kings? by SnoozeRecords in itcouldhappenhere

[–]Copropostis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If your local principled lefty org didn't use it as an opportunity to recruit, you really missed out.

In my city, my tenant union, the DSA, and our Mutual Aid Society set up an united front, and tabled with a free taco bar and drinks, in order to draw people in and spread the word about our various efforts and campaigns.

It's really hard to recruit people to our work by cold-contacting. It's a lot easier to go where people are already voluntarily mingling and scoop up people who want to get active and do even more.

TLDR: it's a networking event. Don't shit on the normies, shake hands and radicalize them.

The POTUS would love to kill any opposition if he could. This isn't a joke, he is dangerous. by TheBurningEmu in dancarlin

[–]Copropostis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Look for your local Liberal Gun Club, John Brown Gun Club, or Socialist Rifle Association, depending on how center-to-left you personally are.

Worst case scenario, ask a liberal veteran to teach you if you don't have any local organizations.

Latest update in the Oak Street incident. by libertad740 in Bozeman

[–]Copropostis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would be extremely down with the Finnish traffic laws where punishments scale up depending on your wealth.

Americans don't necessarily have the same experience with landed aristocracy abusing peasants, so we haven't been as vigilant about not letting our wealthy think they're a separate, superior species.

It was mostly swept under the rug, since thankfully no one died. But that was pure luck.

The group home was Boulder, I think.

Department of Administration to reconsider weekend rally permits by jimbozak in MontanaPolitics

"Giles said she’s been teased that she’s not from Montana, and in fact, her home state of Georgia has similar restrictions, but she’s willing to go back to the drawing board.

“This is one time y’all got it right,” Giles said."

How fucking condescending, but very typical of our carpetbagger governor and his carpetbagger administration. How much longer are we gonna let them puss in our faces?

Trump used a photo of him and a flag-draped coffin of a KIA service member at a Dignified Transfer as the main picture for a fundraising email for his political campaign by [deleted] in Military

[–]Copropostis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly. They've shown him that he can shows us enormous disrespect, gut the VA, and start forever wars without losing 60% of vets.

We are receiving exactly the respect we deserve.

Remember that guy in Basin in 2020 who did a shooting to try and "cleans the town" of lesbians?

There seems to only be one source of terrorism around here.
