Right wing nut jobs do fascism.
LIBBBBSSSSS!!!!
???
Yes liberals aren't great and all. But this is sort of brain injury levels of dysfunction. A state level issue in a state where it's elected officials are attacking the citizens. And people whine about why the out of power largely unelected group isn't exercising more power? Because your mother f****** neighbors didn't put them in power. For all the problems liberals have. This is a voter problem. I'm not sure what they're hoping or expecting? New York or California to invade and set up a provisional government pending new elections?
People who bitch about "the libs" are usually tankies so anything short of rising up in violence to "do somthing" is doing nothing.
I don't know that I would go quite that far. But if I had a dollar for every time I saw someone doing that. And then looking at their Post history to see them defending similar actions elsewhere. I would have a nice little nest egg.
There absolutely are genuine criticisms of capitalism. Unfortunately people often disingenuously make them. Especially leninists. If there's two groups who have no business criticizing each other it's capitalists and leninists. They're both just awful.
what do you suggest we do then?
For starters get off ML
ok, dae ml bad, and then what
How about getting off the internet next. Go outside. Touch. Grass.
surely you will follow your own advice too?
Goodbye troll
bye, reasonable adult.
you are the ones who insist on doing nothing about it
Run DeSantis out on rails
The constitution is an outdated pact between slavers in order to violently control people. It's working as intended. It's actually not a magic document from god.
TIL great wiki article
Ronnie, you silly goof. What will you do when you term-limit out of power and have no one you can bully. I think I'll start sending you love letters about how I want to lick the pudding from your fingers while gazing into your heartless empty eyes.
Change the term limits before then?
The term limit is Constitutional so he should have got something on the ballot this cycle if he wanted that changed. Here's the kicker though, it's not a lifetime limit. He can't serve more than 2 consecutive terms but he could come back in 2030.
Considering he's had laws Changed in the past to protect his position, this wasn't a crazy thought. It sent me doing research to see if it was possible.
Could be changed once Trump gets into office.
Florida Constitution not US. And no President can change the US Constitution or State's
Well, not without enough support from congress + senate. While Trump might not have the power for that initially, they can just use an administrative state packed with Trump loyalists to attack democrats.
At first thought, this was a crazy idea, but I did a little looking.
It turns out that Article Four Section 4 of the United States Constitution requires Congress to ensure that every state has a Republican form of government.
Pretty sure in Florida he can come back for another 2 terms after sitting 1 term out
Potentially going to PRISON which would literally RUIN YOUR LIFE UNTIL YOU DIE for Signing a Ballot is PROOF that FLORIDA IS THE FREEST STATE ON EARTH!
wdym, this sounds unconstitutional as hell
And where is the DOJ? This sounds super unconstitutional.
Merrick Garland isn't going to interrupt a conservative colleague unless congress publicly shames him first.
Okay, sure, it sounds unconstitutional. And yes, it does appear that this DOJ is sitting back and letting it happen. But the DOJ under Trump would be worse, so you have to say nice things about Merrick Garland.
"I won't answer any questions without my lawyer present. If you don't have a warrant please leave my property "
Soap box, ballot box, bullet box.
I wonder if these jack boots are wearing level 4 plates.
There is a solution to this, but it is not a peaceful or quick one. Most non-conservatives won't consider it. Most conservatives know this, and so they continue on their path to full oppression.
The continental US: Hey florida how you doing?
florida: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Dems have basically given up here in FL. It is rough out here.
We know your answer to it would be sectarian violence with no clear objectives resulting in excessive loss of life with the end result being the most violent sociopaths taking power and not letting go.
Mao once said "true power comes from the barrel of a gun" but Mao was a psychotic pedo and didnt realise that guns only have the power to end life not create it or to build anything lasting.
Go back to ML with this tankie bullshit.
Fascism is fucking terrible but they will only win if your solution to it is turn your home into a warzone.
This just in: Lemmy user believes pointing out fascism is also fascism.
Yeah the amount of fascist apologia in this thread is kinda alarming...
How the hell did you arrive at that conclusion?
Freeeeee speeeeeech
Betcha Elon "free speech absolutist" Musk has a lot to say about this. Any minute now.
...crickets...
This is why you don’t even answer the door. If you do don’t open it and tell them to go fornicate themselves with a rusty iron rod 😡
