Ha, fair enough. I come across their stuff every now and then and it's usually economics rather than politics. Nonetheless, good to know. I just feel ...

The article I cited was an afterthought. I'm just saying: don't trust Americans not to fuck themselves when given the opportunity.

Biden could well still lose. Or, given the utter havock wrecked on the basic democratic mechanism of voting by the GOP, the courts could still simply ...

I think you mean Obama.

There's nothing secret about it. It's been happening for the last 40 years right in front of your faces. And there's no dichotomy between the capitali...

My whole point is that you don't need "Proud Boys" running around in the streets make America more of a fascist-inclined shithole than it already is. ...

Things have been 'normal' in the US for quite some time. Trump just made content match form. He's simply the projected fantasy of liberals made flesh....

Normality? Biden and his ilk put the US on this path to begin with.

There's no 'bending' involved - these institutions will willingly do what's needed. Basically, you have much too much faith in your insitutions. They'...

God it's like watching a puppy trying to make human noises.

I'm sure you think you're making some kind of relevant point, and it's really cute.

Whatever violence there will be will be carried out by agents of the state - police, national guard, and so on. And they'll be carrying out the dictat...

The liberal fantasy of an explosion of violence that would mark the US's descent in fascism is just that: a fantasy. It's particularly pernicious too ...

Domestic terrorism in America simply is right-wing violence. The two terms can be used interchangeably without loss. This includes libertarians who al...

Yes, probably something to do with the fact that there were fucking Nazis in government you fucking numpkin. Greece knows how to treat fascists - you ...

Ooh, the remakable website displays prices in AUD (for me) - I just assmued it was USD as the whole damn internet is. You're right, it is cheaper. I s...

Wooof that looks gorgeous but is even more pricey!

This! I held off getting a kindle because I have a big pdf library and was worried that some books would be too squinty to read. Found a way around it...

I wonder why people feel to need to come up with excuses for his behaviour other than the sheer fact that he is a fucking moron who has no idea what h...

I was gifted a kindle the other day so now I'm tearing through all these 80-150 pages books that I cbf spending money on and it's great.

Well we know it can cross species.

Direct Action. The key is to seek out and join existing organizations. This stuff can't be done from scratch, or alone. It requires mutual connections...

Soooooo edgy to point out your limp horizon of political action. Wait till you meet the rest of the internet.

Yeah 'cause the choices are between petitioning daddy Biden and doing nothing :lol: Narrow as a prick.

You misspelt fantasizing.

It'd be the best season ending.

Ah sleeping. About as much good as expecting Biden to do shit I guess.

Or what? You gonna vote on it?

Narrow as a prick it is then.

Good.

To 'give up' on Biden and his cronies is not to 'give up', unless your horizon of action is as narrow as a prick.

Having paid virtually nothing in taxes, Grandpa Trump is clearly a drain on the economy and ought to be left to rot - for the economy.

Pence is basically a walking hamburger. The idea that he could in fact be elected is laughable.

The only cogent argument I've seen so far for giving a hoot about Trump's health is the need to see him roundly thumped at the polls, which is a reall...

:blush: I did like how it was "you're not a liberal... but you're ALSO not a fascist (!!!!)" /uploads/resized/files/c7/hffexr01r0reghoi.jpg

Oh I absolutely believe in democracy. Specifically as one of those ideas which would be nice if it were ever to be implemented.

*shrug* Biden's corporate trash and the idea he and his party might stand as any kind of bulwark against climate change is wishful thinking in the ext...
