Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

TL;DR: we're taking over control of the country, and as long as nobody tries to stop us, it won't be violent.
It's like when a thief robs your house and claims it's the homeowners fault for the violence, "if they didn't try to stop us it would've been peaceful."
What a crock of crap.
Not entirely. I would much rather have a thief in my house than a fashist.
Because when he talks about "non-violence" he skips over the persecution of minorities and enemies of the state.
And enemies of the state can include anyone they want. For example pregnant women.
Yeah, the monster energy drinking bros don't realize that if they're not wealthy, their kids will be on the front lines.
Only once their kids are sent home in coffins en masse will these tides turn, if we go that route.
I'm not so sure there are "quiet parts" anymore. They want to turn America into a Christian nation, banning same sex marriage, all abortions at any stage, gender transitions, and no-fault divorce. At this point very few on the right would deny this.
Don't forget IVF, sex education, (soon?) contraceptives, history education, any behavior not conforming to traditional European gender roles, medical care for the poor, social assistance for the poor, free meals for children, the arts....
I could probably go on a while.
Jesus fucking Christ, why isn’t this shit front page news?
“Roberts has previously said he sees his organization’s role as ‘institutionalizing Trumpism.’”
“Institutionalizing”? It was bad enough for four years; imagine it being the new normal.
He shouted the loud part even louder.
Paywall
When fascism loses the communication war, which it has, they resort to the only other language they know which is violence
Isn't that already inciting violence? Seal team six that bitch
