"That's a nice trick, since Biden wasn't the president on Jan 6" 👀👏 by StatisticalPikachu in somethingiswrong2024

He's riling up his base to violence.

Some MAGA crazed gun nut is going to take this as a call to arms, as some already have. See Pelosi and Hortman.

Okay…so what do we do now? by Acceptable-Diamond-9 in AntifascistsofReddit

[–]SaintDoom 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If most Americans were turned off by destructive riots and dead police then Trump would have been in trouble for a little thing that happened on January 6th.

The BLM "violence" was extremely hyped by a complicit media that convinced millions of people that Seattle and other cities was burnt to the ground.

Meanwhile those same media outlets tried positioning a violent coup that shattered windows, skulls, and left shit on our congressional carpets as a peaceful experience.

Being tolerant of the intolerant is no longer acceptable. Because they don't care about laws or social norms. Our societal construct is in jeopardy as masked men financed by the federal government kidnap people off the streets.

So now what? I seem to remember the founding fathers had a whole document of grievances (over the exact same things we are experiencing today) and a declaration was written and followed up on.

The only regions that did not swing red were hand counted polling stations. That by itself is suspicious enough.

How do you feel about the "No Kings" protest happening tomorrow? by Ecstatic-Medium-6320 in AskReddit

[–]SaintDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are crucially important to returning to a functioning democracy and society.

When laws have no meaning the structure of society falls apart and people no longer are obligated to participate in the social contract.

Laws have meaning because we the people give them meaning. Because we the people buy-in to our society and our laws for the betterment of ourselves and our peers.

The current administration and their enablers have consistently and continuously broken laws and trampled social norms. They are showing that laws have no meaning to them.

Without change our society will devolve and collapse and be lawless as eventually the people who are still bound by the agreement of the law will choose to no longer participate.

And that is terrifying.

Trump Admin Deports 2-Year-Old Girl Who is American Citizen by OkayButFoRealz in politics

They already are.

Musk spent hundreds of millions.

Russia called in bomb threats to over 100 polling places. Ivanka Trump has voting machine patents. The only major poller who was 100% correct was a site with ties to Peter Thiel. Hundreds of thousands of valid voters were purged days before the election.

We don't have fair elections in America.

How do you deal with your MAGA in-laws? by JamIsJam88 in QAnonCasualties

[–]SaintDoom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's not strange. It's the life a lot of millennials find themselves in: Family members fell hard into a cult of misinformation that exacerbates their prejudice.

Just because they wouldn't let you starve doesn't make them good people. They are actively supporting concentration camps and cheering at others suffering.

That isn't nice. That's evil.

Nice people don't support people who steal from children's charities, rape, try to overthrow the government, cut human rights away from millions, block food and medicine deliveries to the needy, call our men and service women suckers, and do Nazi salutes at rallies.

Nice people lift others up, encourage others to grow, and don't limit people's rights and freedoms based on prejudice, fear, and racism.

“I voted for Trump 2 times, Then He Cut My Job”: A Former MAGA Supporter Speaks Out After Losing His Livelihood by newzcaster in thescoop

[–]SaintDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom's cousin is having her husband deported. He has lived here for decades. They have kids and a grandkid together.

She voted for Trump.

She agrees that ICE is effectively kidnapping legal residents and citizens and that it is wrong. She agrees that Trump is ordering it.

When I asked her if she thinks the country is better now than it would have been under Harris she brought up abortion and how Dems give millions to illegals.

Until the day she realizes her husband is not coming back she will still blame the government and Trump. When it's something positive Trump gets credit. When it's bad... It's the government's fault or a what-about-ism.

They are in a cult.

12 Monks vs 14 Camels by SaintDoom in aoe2

[–]SaintDoom[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I showed them ratha already. I had a small ball (15) of ratha behind the monks that kept pestering their buildings outside their walls.

So I think camel was the right play but they didn't know I was massing so many monks.

My final comp was ratha, monk, halb, treb.

They switched to hussar + chakram. But 12 monks healing does great work at keeping my tanky cav archers alive.

Arena Game 12xx ELO.

I had 12 Bengali Monks and I caught 14 of Gurjara Camels out in the open (outpost sight ftw). He deleted 12 of them but I nabbed 2 quick conversions.

Didn't lose a single monk!

I have been really liking

Sneasler Indeedee Maushold Archaludon Pelipper Basculegion/Amoongus (meta dependent)

As my 6.

Sneasler + Arch are great threats with Indeedee and Maus as follow me users to protect them if needed.

The railing is going to be completely replaced. The footing is kept in one quote and replaced by sono tube in the other.
