Arizona Dems shut down office after shootings
(thehill.com)
MAGA is a terrorist organization.
The GOP is a terrorist organization.
potato potato
I could really go for some potatos right now im fucken hungry.
They're saying the quiet parts out loud and there's no turning back
If only there was a term they could use referencing the use and threat of violence in order to achieve political gains. It feels like that's a word that should exist already, and that Republicans should all be considered the domestic version of whatever kind of person would do that.
If someone tells you who they are, believe them.
For anyone wondering, Snopes says it was real in 2022. Perhaps a "joke", but not a wise one.
That's just the Trump excuse. Everything atrocious that is said that gets pushback is a joke.
"He tells it like it is!"
"Come on, he's obviously just joking!"
Pretty much. He "tells it like it is" when they agree with him and it's a joke when they don't. Reality is fungible for them.
I know the term you are looking for, but probably the shooters are white Christian nationalists.
Which means they are definitely not political terrorists who are terrorizing .
But I could be wrong and these are terrorists. Who knows? Perhaps one is mixed race or stepped into a mosque within the last 20 years. Let’s keep an open mind
I know the term you are looking for, but probably the shooters are white Christian nationalists.
Which means they are definitely not political terrorists who are terrorizing .
wtf? Why christians wouldn't be considered terrorists?
I reckon it's supposed to be sarcasm, that since they are white Christians they can't be terrorists, unless they are "mixed" race or have been in a Mosque
I've re-read the last paragraph. I'm quite slow, it's 100% sarcasm.
It got me the first time too. That's how you know it's great sarcasm!

Hmm...
Stochastic terrorism?
Nope, just plain ole terrorism.
Stochastic Terrorism means advocates for but does not personally commit it. There have been shootings, that isn't stochastic.
The stochastic terrorism happened before the shootings. Both forms of violence need to be stopped.
That's true, yeah.
"Arizona Democrats closed their field office in Tempe, Ariz. after three shooting incidents. The office served as a base for the Sun State’s congressional campaigns and Vice President Harris’s presidential effort in recent weeks.
"The Tempe Police Department said the latest incidents on Oct. 6 involved gun shots fired at the Democratic campaign office at around 12:30 a.m. They said no one was inside the building. Officers are now looking for a silver Toyota Highlander with an unknown plate, which was seen on the premises. "
Officers are now looking for a silver Toyota Highlander...
Good news, that narrows down the field significantly. There can be only one.
HERE WE AAAAAARE
BORN TO BE KINGS
WE'RE THE PRINCES OF THE UUUUUUNIVEEEEEEEERRRRRRRSSE!
God damn it, why can't reality at least have a soundtrack by Queen?
Clever.
Too bad we can't gild people here, because this deserves it.
Republicans really hate democracy.
Should have stayed open. You're letting those fucking terrorists win
This is a good thing. The constitution in intentionally design to preserve entrenched power. It's why we're the most powerful country in the world.
"Whoever has the most guns and the best aim makes the rules" is probably not the best way to run a country.
People don't seem to realize that "live by the sword" is just the first half of the common expression. On a related note, if we don't have a plan to retake the southern states (again) stashed away next to the Canada invasion documents, somebody ought to get on that.
The plan to retake the southern states is quite literally just to let them kill themselves. Not one of them are self sufficient without federal funding. If they decide to bite the hand that feeds they're going to have an awful time trying to find their own food.
The plan
Who's plan? That's sure as hell not my plan. I don't want a bunch of children starving to death.
With their chronic conditions and co-morbidities, all you would have to do is cut off the medication supplies and they would be done within weeks.
If by “goof thing” you mean a bunch of gun-nut goofballs are trying to undermine democracy and succeeding, then I agree.
This is the dumbest shit I’ve read all week. If you want to talk about entrenched power, then look no further than The Heritage Foundation and The Federalist Society as well as their billionaire donors. No one is taking shots at them, of course.
Yes obviously not. Democrats are controlled opposition anyway intended to grind down any really social movements into the graveyard of democracy. Preserving capitalism. Which is a good thing.
Wut? 🤣
