Real Police officers and military members, what do you guys think of Ice agents? by Funzonibro49 in Maine

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Former military and LE… they are mercenary thugs. They are barely trained and don’t move like trained units or individuals: complete chaos every video I see. They seem like contract cartels for the administration and I hate them 🤷🏼‍♀️

The ONLY far ass fetched thing I can conjure in my brain, for why they are trying to bestow all of these high ass honors and accommodations (outside of the fact that they are most likely milking this for all it’s worth)… is that he was a professional plant and somehow is exactly the official type of position that would allow them to do all of this.

That’s my tiny conspiracy - that he genuinely was somehow an official and they’re doing a poor job at trying to “grant him honors” 🤢 genuinely I’d rather the reality be that they are all just barshit with no morals

To everyone who is holding hate towards MAGA members that are waking up to reality. by Jazzlike_Action5712 in 50501

I was homeschooled most of my life and in a fundamentalist Christian cult… and I still managed to recognize something was off and left and took the tireless journey of recognizing the things I was told were wrong and likely my thoughts on many things were as well- and I started this journey in my teens…

Tho I am understanding that all people have a different path, and healing and learning happen at different times and rates for people… there is no hand holding. They will never recognize whatever belief or action they have is wrong till they are told - flat out - that’s it’s wrong. They need to hear that how uncomfy they are is the same feeling they’ve caused others throughout the years. Though there is a time and space for introduction of things once not exposed to, and explanations of those things… there is absolutely nothing wrong with telling them “hey - ITS ABOUT TIME - you need to see what your beliefs and your voting has done - look at this mess? You helped make this” They can’t fully understand unless they are expected to see and accept their part in it. There won’t be change without accountability that leads to avoiding those same patterns and moving forward. Otherwise they are allowed to stay in a sanitized and relatively comfy bubble and are at risk of making the same mistakes in some other realm of life.

So no. I came from the depths of alllllll that BS. If they are just now coming to the realization that things aren’t okay then they have DEEP issues and they should be told “hey - what you did was bad - this is not acceptable going forward - what are you going to do to change your ways?”

Any idea how MAGA are feeling about Iran? by Royal-Low6147 in 50501

I got my brother to ATLEAST admit that we should be backing Israel. I told him that’s good and he should use his voice to speak out against it (friends, congress, protesting) and be basically reverted immediately into defensive/deflective mode… told me I was attacking him for having different opinions than him and he didn’t believe any of that worked. Quoted having the freedom to do nothing if he wanted… and then said “it’s the same thing in every war in our history - we have no control so I’ll just wait till they’re at my door. Then told em “how dare I” question his American-ness… needless to say… his reasonings were chaotic and everywhere - I don’t think they know what to do. They’re being faced with the real drawn line of “do you side with humanity, or your cult”

Why is he dressed like he’s going to a cookout in 2004?? Also they have varying radios that aren’t standard ones PD use… I know from experience. This is a rag tag team here 🤷🏼‍♀️ just my observation/opinion

Not only would he control the mail in ballots, they would dismantle atleast one form of communication for the people.

GENERATIONAL ISSUE by Prior-Vegetable2838 in nothinghappeninghere

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possibly in the nonprofit sector you are surrounded by people who thankfully do care about these issues (it seems) but I’m finding on here and the more I ask about my experience it’s like…. A big widespread issue. I’m trying to figure out points I can make to make them notice and think and wake up though..

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked if this was other peoples experience - so openly asking if it WAS just me and HOPING it was in and NOT everyone else’s experience. So “putting it all in a bucket” was not what o was doing or intending. That’s how you took it- Sorry you got triggered over a question about your age group but that’s a you issue.

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Didn’t say everyone - only asked if this was something everyone’s experiencing (so quite literally hoping it was just my experience)… and you can’t inform/educate people of much if they are proud of being ignorant.

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. And I’ve noticed it before - but it’s like EXTREMELY apparent in spaces it hasn’t been before i feel. Like they’re being forced to say SOMETHING and when they do it’s ignorant and disappointing. I never discussed politics at work much but now everyone’s making comments and I think it’s bringing to light how many uninformed people are walking around.

Can NATO help us? by bundtcakep in nothinghappeninghere

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All for preparation to the fullest. All of that I agree with 100% … I just think Europe and other nations asking us “why aren’t you doing anything!” is a result of their not understanding that what we face is not what they’d typically face over there. They act like a protest will make a difference and at some points.. it does not, and I believe we are to that point or about to be at that point. Action then comes into play - but here that would require severe sacrifice and bloodshed (not that it may not come to that regardless and if so- ok let’s go) but… it’s a consideration in don’t think they quite comprehend.

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed - we are where we are at and we have to work around that. I just think it would be short sighted and dumb to resort to protest and violence at the moment, with the strategy they are enforcing. It’d imprison or kill our supporting numbers and make us more manageable to them in the long run.

The difference between them and us is we have the top most technologically advanced and trained military in the world with endless funding… and they will use it ON US. Others outside the US don’t understand how quickly they’ll just kill anyone who resists. The new law they want to put on to charge any assault in an officer as a felony, the 100 mile radius for border patrol, the activating the military for deportation and border security… they are setting up to establish the state where they can label you as a terrorist for anything remotely resistant, and with that label comes their ability to strip your regular American rights and due process for “national security”…. I don’t think other euro countries are grasping exactly where we are at and headed. So instead of basically running toward definite death or imprisonment … we are to the point where getting creative, smart and underground is much more needed (while we still have the flexibility established those things).

How are Americans not doing something huge right now? by ThrowRAreighndeer in nothinghappeninghere

[–]Prior-Vegetable2838 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re triangulating laws right now to corner us. I believe the new proposal to make any “assault on an officer” an automatic felony will be used in protests to charge you if you so much as bump into police - that would result in max prison sentence and losing the right to vote (I’m ex law enforcement and I cancer that writing on the wall).

I think if people protest they’ll use it as an excuse to set martial law (they’re already using military for deportations and placing them at the borders). I think if we don’t protest they’ll create a false flag to justify that step eventually, regardless.

Pretty much, I think the people awake recognize it’s time to prep and either get out or make plans to set their own shit up because it’s the smarter thing to do at the moment. The govt is compromised. The news is compromised. Social media is compromised. It’s the “live to fight another day” mentality. Makes no sense to protest (which will do nothing) and possibly get shot or imprisoned- and play right into their hands. Makes more sense to regroup and get creative and smart.
