Which is why the physical language is the best language to speak to these people.

Aside from gitmo, the military in Colorado offered Buckley Space Force base as a detention and processing center.

From Reuters article

“WASHINGTON, Jan 28 (Reuters) - The U.S. military said on Tuesday it will allow Immigration and Customs Enforcement to detain migrants at Buckley Space Force Base in Colorado … ICE requirements for the facility include a temporary operations center, staging area, and a temporary holding location for the receiving, holding, and processing of illegal aliens,” Northern Command said in the statement.

The fires have been lit. Gondor calls for aid.

Yea, as a millennial, it’s kinda depressing to hear some of us take credit for being the spearhead when previous generations were the ones who went through things like the Stonewall Riots and started Pride.

We absolutely were not the spearhead. We were supposed to be the bulwark to prevent it from backsliding and we failed.

It’s more like facing a cliff and pulling the handbrake to crash the car in the hopes it rolls to a stop before going over the edge instead of bickering about what speed we want to go over the cliff at.

Not even different wings. Both are right wing parties. The left wing of this bird was long since broken.

Nice false dichotomy you keep forcing. If you had an ounce of critical thought you’d see how fucking stupid you sound.

Being against the US’s oppressive imperialism doesn’t mean support for other, equally oppressive imperialist countries.

Fuck off already mate. You’re only making a fool of yourself.

I hate my fucking state so much. I wish I wasn’t stuck here.

Cause that’s obviously the only other possibility. Life is black and white, there are no shades of grey or alternatives. /s

Keep licking those boots, bubba.

Nice false dichotomy you got there bucko.

Imperialism is bad no matter the flavor.

They get more votes because when you only have two candidates, and both are appealing to the right, the one who is fully right wing will beat out the one that is offering half assed attempts at pandering. And that isn’t even beginning to get into the propaganda from the right that Dems are nothing but sleezy liars who will say anything to get their way, and then the Dems literally start doing that, won’t win over anyone from across the isle.

A simple analogy is you have two cake shops, both selling for the same price (a single vote). One advertising a generic square cake and the other a three tier masterpiece with all the bells and whistles. It’s quite obvious who is gonna get the most customers.

Meanwhile the rest of the population gets further and further disillusioned with the system and stops participating when its obvious that it doesn’t care to represent their interests.

And there is no political leverage the proletariat has to push for policy change after the election. The pressure came from “do what we say or at election time we vote for someone else”

Well, every fucking election when it comes time to follow through after they again failed to hold up their end of the bargain the majority gets cold feet and caves to familiarity because risking change is scary.

Exactly. Can’t have change from within the system when the vast majority willingly throws away their political leverage and uncritically grants power to genocidal imperialists.

How many empty promises must people fall victim to before they decide to do something other than beg for change?

Cool. I don’t love America. I fucking despise this country and everything it stands for. Israel can fall with it, never should have existed in the first place.

The world would be leagues better for it.

This very succinctly explains why I, with AuDHD, find it practically impossible to get anything done as I slowly rot from untreated chronic illnesses.

Literally annoyed right now because some dimwit fighting ghosts, saying that I was advocating for tolerance of right-wing fascism, because I said that the Balkanization strategy was not the strat in reply to a third individual’s comment.

Also trying to say something about vulcanization, but idk what the chemical process of mixing rubber with sulfur has to do with geopolitics.

Vulcanization is a chemical process of rubber by treating it with sulfur. You have no clue what you are talking about and it is obvious. You want to call me worked up?

How about you stop getting so worked up trying to be morally righteous, fighting ghosts of your own creation and “GTFO” with your fallacious assumptions misrepresenting my argument. None ever said that we have to tolerate fascists.

Did you just not fucking read the top comment in this thread by shikotohno, that specifically said to rely on BALKANIZATION, the process of a country breaking up into smaller, often hostile, independent units typically due to economic, religious, or geopolitical interests, to solve the political strife within the country, or are you just daft?

The strat isn’t to give up and acquiesce to letting them have their own playground to perpetuate their oppression, just because it isn’t happening in your backyard, at the cost of sacrificing hundreds of thousands of innocent people trapped within the regions. You can’t “Deprogram the Trump Cult victims and rehabilitate them into the decent society” if you give the Trump cult their own independent region.

Maybe people will wake up to understand our system of “law and order” never was meant to serve people, only capital.

Yea, it did the exact fuckin opposite. Like we knew it would.

What? Do you even know what Balkanization is?

What does the breaking up of a larger nation into multiple independent, hostile territories have to do with changing people’s political ideologies?

Ah yes, the Balkanization strategy. Cause that worked out so well the last time.
