He accidentally the plan.

Well, yeah, that’s because all the “more” is redacted to protect the perpetrators.

Lavish Cowardly

FTFY

Large motorcades provide security, not luxury. Vance is a sniveling scared little fascist pissant who knows how rightfully unpopular he is, and it shows.

The Olympics is literally a competition between countries. Of fucking course it’s political!

More to the point, coverage in other countries did not edit it out. This was uniquely American censorship/spin.

Flock is a terrorist organization.

I don’t fucking care. It is dangerous to underestimate him (or his handlers, or whatever – doesn’t matter!).

What matters is that he doesn’t have to be smart or literate to have his brownshirts murder you, so it’s way past time to quit treating him like a goddamn joke!

I didn’t say it was a strategy. I said it was reality, and that you delude yourself at your peril.

I don’t control how leftists vote. Neither do you. The difference is that I’m willing to accept that truth and you apparently are not.

You move left, or you finish off democracy and probably eventually die in an ICE camp. I’m not even exaggerating; those are literally your choices.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

No. Another public demonstration of a dictator’s contempt for the Constitution. He fucking knows. Don’t let anyone pretend he’s merely ignorant and not deliberately evil.

I don’t know why there’s so much arguing about telling people to not burn a bridge in case you’re backed into a corner to vote for the lesser of two evils.

The answer to “why” is because, as 2024 proved, a neoliberal can’t win. If we’re backed into that corner, we’re already screwed and your contingency doesn’t matter.

Think of leftists like a crazy person holding a gun to America’s head (the gun being fascism). If liberals don’t capitulate to their demands, they will shoot. It doesn’t matter if it’s irrational. It doesn’t matter if it’s stupid. They already proved that they’ll do it.

As a liberal, you are not in control of the situation anymore, and your choice is to capitulate to the left’s demands (less profit for abusive plutocrats – the horror!) or eventually find yourself being marched by ICE goons to the gas chambers.

If you want to do something useful, your only job is to get other liberals to come to terms with this new political reality. Pearl-clutching about some imagined fantasy where Newsom wins the primary and isn’t fucking steamrolled in the general is absolutely delusional, counterproductive, wishful thinking wankery.

all this psy-op crap about demonizing a Democrat front-runner is how you get the progressives to stay home and hand Trump (or his ilk) a third term

No, having Newsom win the primary instead of a progressive is how you hand the fascists a third term. It’s the liberals’ turn to hold their noses and vote for a candidate who can actually win; if they refuse, the consequences are entirely their fault.

If you want to win, you have to support the progressive in the primary. That’s reality, and reality doesn’t give a shit if you like it or not.

This is what strikes are for.

Yeah, but they’re not ready to rule blatantly enough to make it obvious even to the normies yet.

Ah, so it’s just purely political intimidation and sabotage, without any remaining pretense of legitimate legal purpose.

Yep. Basically, protestors made it clear they knew where he lived and so he fled like the little bitch he is.

It’s a shame Miller is too much of a sniveling coward to stay in his own house.

I’m surprised he (presumably) still leaves the protection of the military base to go to work.

Fun fact: Steven Miller doesn’t get Secret Service protection.

He did recently move into military housing after somebody graffiti’d the street outside his house (or something like that), though.

If I had a nickel for every time Google violated someone’s privacy, I’d be richer than Elon Musk.

Expanding on what others have answered, Trump is extremely suggestible due to dementia. He literally just agrees with whoever told him something last because he can’t think on his own anymore.

That’s why it’s even more vital to get rid of fascist advisors like Steven Miller than it is to get rid of Trump himself.

False accusations mean nothing.

Also same age (I prefer “Oregon Trail generation”), but I did grow up listening to music like Springsteen. It may be because my parents were older, but they often had the radio tuned to oldies or classic rock stations and so that’s what I got used to.
