Who isn't expecting violence in November?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

This would be violence after January. 2025 refers to the year.

Horrible events like January 6, or 9/11, each get a name.

I wonder what Monday's SCOTUS ruling will end up being called.

Bc that seems to me to have been the turning point - not the beginning, obviously (you could point much further back to e.g. Citizens United) but when it really allowed/encouraged things to ratchet up.

Even its wiki page says it was not unique, was not for common folk, and also it was repealed even though portions of it were re-issued. If you mean that this could be used as a name, I was thinking more along the lines of like "Madness Monday", except you know... something actually good:-).

Lol.. I'm a sales and strategy exec for a living and I make sure never to be the smartest or most talented at anything, any room I'm in. Many of my sentences end with "or something with good words that are actually more gooder that you smart people can do more betterer than me"

There's a huge difference. They are talking about resistance to the fascist policies after they are put in place.

[-] pyrflie@lemm.ee 11 points 1 month ago

Anyone who thinks this won't start in November is fooling themselves.

[-] JimmyBigSausage@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

And if they think they won’t be met with resistance they are fooling themselves.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

You are really missing the point.

[-] pyrflie@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I'm really not. I'm just way more pessimistic. I grew up around the Aryan Nations. I have a very vivid idea what is going to happen.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Yes you are. The point is that they are talking about official governmental reprisals for any sort of resistance, not uprisings.

This isn't warning of violence, this is announcing when they'll start building the camps.

[-] pyrflie@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

What part of "Yes" do you not understand?

You're arguing with a straw man.
