Sounds more like performance art/prank in the form of a video game, like something Andy Kauffman and Banksy would create together, but I’m still here for it

Serious question, best way to stop paying income taxes?

I’m getting my 3 year old nephew two things now but nobody else is getting shit cause I ain’t buying anything else but food and seasonings for said food

I think that if there are historians left to analyze this in 30 years they’ll probably drop the start line around the assassination of Charlie Kirk. There definitely are multiple different factions even within the conservative movement they haven’t completely turned on one another, the left is similarly at odds with itself.

When we see the White House calling on generals to be prepared to invade American cities with the military, judge’s houses are being burned down after giving verdicts disliked for political inconvenience, Chicago, Portland, LA, DC are all seeing extreme escalations in state sanctioned violence, states sending their national guard to other states to quell chaos that isn’t there, and mass shootings nearly everyday, sometimes several. To me that’s civil war that’s started heating up.

But if you’d rather call what were currently seeing and experiencing something like The Troubles in Ireland and wait until the conflict is even more overt feel free.

I’m not letting my guard down until it’s over, he could just be worried the Christian nationalist take control instead of his butterfly revolution tech bros

This is out of line, Carl is an awful and gross person but he’s not evil

Thank you

That’s not how civil wars work anymore, it’ll be akin to a Balkanization where there are multiple different factions, upstart states, militias and insurgencies. The second will be nothing like the first. The Syrian civil war is a decent smaller scale modern example

Edit: if you’d like a good idea of what it will look like I HIGHLY recommend the fist season of the excellent podcast It Could Happen Here by Robert Evans. It’s from 2019 but wildly prescient

In my experience phones are exacerbating trauma more than soothing it, I type from my phone

We’re already in the first throes of the Second American Civil War, we just haven’t started calling it that yet

Edit: throws to throes because I’m a dumb southern hillbilly

He’s had a long week alright, just wants to have a drink and unwind

It’s still fucking with me that a man i first encountered as the introducer of women jumping on trampolines on the Man Show as a horny 11 year old is somehow a relevant character in the end of democracy in the United States
