Least schizo Trump supporter behavior
isn’t this something else that is illegal? It’s so irresponsible for Trump and GOP to constantly use bullying tactics to silence people. If something happens, Trump and GOP are responsible. These people have become full on terrorists
It’ll only get worse if he is elected again
He’ll make sure he never leaves and picks his successor. It will literally be game over
That is some good Christian behavior
You mean the group that burnt down the Serapeum of Alexandria, and gouged out the eyes of Hypatia with seashells?
Yeah, this really seems a step too far for those guys.
At what point does this sort of thing stop being politics and start being organized crime? So now I halfway-hope the vigilantes that try to do this will end up facing criminal charges for it
But, I also halfway-expect cops and prosecutors to look the other way if the victims of this kind of crime ends up being the kind of people they’d be disproportionately policing and convicting anyhow
Terrorism: The unlawful use of violence or threats to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or government, with the goal of furthering political, social, or ideological objectives.
But I thought terrorists were only non-white non-Christians? I’m getting a MAGA migraine wrapping my head around your comment. /s
MAGAraine.
MAGArine?
I could hear some guys in my neighborhood outside yesterday talking about how this won’t effect the election. One of them yelled out “Well at least the republicans are the ones with the guns!” Everyone just kinda got quiet and looked at him like he was an idiot.
Remember he’s not the only dangerous one. Every vote counts, and all of them are voting red.
My maga friend told me to stock up on food come November. Dude is fucking brainwashed by beanie man Tim Poole
I worked with a guy who was appalled that I was buying go fast parts for my car instead of stocking up on guns and ammo for the upcoming war. He also had his neighborhood mapped out as to who are the democrats so he knows who to go after first. I asked him if he thought democrats don’t have guns too and he just stared at me. After a bit he just changed the subject to a racist rant about rap music.
Wow, and what did the police say when you reported the guy with a kill list of his neighborhood?
“We’ll look into it” - not holding my breath
For the longest time I thought this was solely a matter of education; but these days, I’m beginning to think such right-wing extremism is also a matter of mental illness.
Things like poor parenting, brain injuries from football, lead exposure from guns and motorsports, substance abuse, shitty diets, etc. – all culminate in a banner of people who are… Not of sound mind.
Saying this as a former rural Appalachian Republican from decades ago.
Edit: added “solely” for some clarification.
I agree that a lot is mental illness but I think it’s more education. They fall for the lies and get in line and do what they’re told to do by sources like fox “news”. It’s scary how it’s changed, I had Republican friends that we could all hang out and even discuss politics with no problems. Now, we don’t talk at all, there is no discussion. I am the enemy and I don’t even care about politics, just be a good human. I don’t think you can be a good human and support the Republicans at this time, it’s gone off the rails.
You’re likely right that education is still the prevailing issue, but I think we need to get more specific on what kind of education people receive in terms of safeguarding against false rhetoric. Drilling in the logical fallacies, teaching ethics, and even teaching common propaganda techniques so you can identify them. We need to step back and ask ourselves how we managed to escape the rabbit hole when others could not.
The echo-chambers have become so ironclad that it’s so difficult to pierce through and drag someone out.
I’m sorry… But this seems like a guy to report
You should report him to the FBI and your work. The statement is enough to probably get him fired and with luck his gun horde will be illegal when the FBI comes knocking
He’s gone (thankfully), and a few of the guys I work with did report him. I’m just waiting to see him on the news and all the people saying how they never saw it coming “he was such a nice guy”.
So you know who he is, and you expect him to commit an atrocity, but your plan is to just… let it happen?
Buddy…
What do you want me to do? Shoot him first? He’s been reported by multiple people.
Including you, or is this the bystander effect?
