Leaders of both major parties are fiddling while the country burns.

"Democrats have long claimed that they know how to fix things through government action, but six decades of failed social policies have thoroughly undermined that notion. Joe Biden’s recent declaration that he will erase a massive tranche of student debt is remarkable for many reasons. His unilateral, probably unconstitutional, move is a sure sign of our broken government drift towards authoritarianism. The wildly different estimates of its costs, which range from $300 billion to nearly $1 trillion, are yet more evidence that nobody knows what they’re doing. Can you imagine running a business like that? The truly astonishing thing is that no one is claiming it addresses the immense and urgent problem of the high cost of college, which is strongly tied to wrongheaded federal loan policies. Democrats don’t even pretend to have the answer. They are raising the red flag, finally admitting they only know how to throw money at the issue (using taxpayer money to buy votes in the midterms).
Republicans are pointing this out, but where’s their plan?"

That happened right before everyone’s eyes when Harris was chosen for VP over Whitmer. Gretchen thought she had it in the bag. Nobody toed the line on the DNC Covid narrative like her. Too bad so sad Gretch....you’re not diverse enough. Hell now we don’t even know if she fits the definition of a woman.
I don’t know wether to be amused or horrified by this statement. Aw hell.....I’ll be both!
Good analogy. The flaw is in the perception of the programmers. Reality is not an impediment to their thought process. They will readily reject it and substitute their own. And I don’t know how we fix that.”A is A” is fascism to them.
I am obviously BlackPilled and see this state of affairs as irredeemable at this point.
The root cause of this resides in the Universities. Until the collectivists are purged from higher learning nothing that “good” parents do cannot be undone. For every “kid” that wakes up, two more were just churned out of Commie U.
Better to create a parallel society. Or, pull the cover over the spider hole and wait for all the screaming and dying to stop.
Although, throwing rocks at kids in my yard sounds fun too.
Now you understand all of the Biden administration's policies and messaging.
No doubt the Chinese are planning this in the long term. Maybe the business people like Sorros are too. I doubt the demonrats have the strategic skills, brains or patience to think that far.
When the oligarchy takes power, an awful lot of punks that thought they were a big deal are going to be left behind. Liz Cheney and Hunter Biden come to mind.
The armed response would be at the local level - not a mass riot or demonstration, unless there was a federal military response to the killing of the tyrants' ATF and FBI agents trying to confiscate weapons.
Maybe the feds would start in blue cities and be temporarily satisfied with 50% of the population disarmed.
I know of many people who would respond with force to any attempt to confiscate today.
imo, the feds must be patient to avoid that response.
I disagree. They can override the precedent for the individual feature of the 2nd, without a massive riot, gnashing of teeth like the Roe-v-Wade, for sure. The riots might come if they subsequently tighten the knot too fast.
I can't.
imo, it is an intentional goal to destroy America and individual liberty.
American patriots are the only thing standing between the alien elite and planetary
dictatorship. They have been working for a return to complete control over the
serfs for centuries.
We either stand and fight or kneel as slaves.
immediate armed response to anyone attempting said confiscation.
Or they could wait another 20 years when most of those Americans
who remember freedom are dead, and the younger generations
would be so intent on their phone-matrix they wouldn't even notice
if one of their kidneys had been removed.
there are no sane democrats (in office)
This reinforces a negative lesson! Learn math and science; Become an engineer, programmer, teacher, nurse, doctor. Political Science, French Literature? Art? These are hobbies, not real careers. There is infinite factual statistics on the employ ability with such a degree, and it was ignored. Live with your choices.
FFA, I would be interested in your view regarding the absolutely ridiculous deficit/debt the left have created. Do you think this is an objective, even separate from the liberal spending?
Perhaps there have been other reversals, but few (any?) this close in time, and this seminal. Heller-vsDC is seminal. I foresee a future court, post-Thomas, all in white robes, eating tofu, ambrosia and unicorn, delightedly pouncing on the "militia" wording, and destroying the Second Amendment entirely.
