I hate that I'm typing this...

People need to start buying weapons right now. It's not that I think we're at the "take up arms" phase. It's that I think we should be ready before they keep us from being able to.

With all the shit they're pulling with federal databases, I expect people are going to start being added to NICS (background check database) for political reasons.

When you get a NICS denial, there's no explanation of why it's was denied, but you can't buy a gun.

And it will alert the FBI that you tried.

The coup happened decades ago. They're now comfortable enough in their power that the mask can come off.

From Trump’s POV it’s actually a heist. He’s going to take everything that’s not bolted down.

How is it a coup when they said they were going to do this and the people still voted for them and their opposition handed over the keys and said "welcome home?" They didn't take over the system by force, they were given the red carpet treatment to a system they already had a significant control over via owning politicians and lobbyists.

Now that the mask is off, people want to act surprised that the same unelected billionaire class continues their dictatorship.

If this wasn't allowed, why haven't they been killed or put in prison like an average citizen who got caught stealing food or who happened to be walking down the street while being Black?

The Supreme Court said the president can do whatever they want, if Biden really believed he was a fascist and a threat to democracy why didn't he just have the CIA kill him like we do to democratically elected leaders all over the world?

Why didn't they take out all these billionaires like they do to children in Palestine?

It's incredibly striking that Americans have more or less been okay with business as usual as long as they can pretend it isn't happening. If you want to stop the billionaire class from using their unilateral control, you really missed your chance. A nation founded as a dictatorship of landowners, slavers, and capitalists, consistent through its entire history in upholding the interests of the bosses over the workers, and yet now it's a coup when they continue to exert their control over their state?

Its going to take more than a protest march or office meeting with representatives to undo it. May as well face that fact and prepare

Well who gave them the foot in the door? Some decisions are not so easy to walk off huh
