One profoundly wishful conclusion that isn;t entirely lacking reason is that white supremacy is now effectively ideologically against

they hate fox, it's all about newsmax and OANN now.

Yeah thats what just suck in for me. Like the momentum has officially drifted into some extreme fringe.

edit: as opposed to retaining even some illusory support for this or that mainstream institution. Which figures, given the conspiratorial tendency of it all.

 

[sufi]

yeah, where's the coup? a bunch of thugs crashed the building and walked around taking photos and videos. they don't have a leader taking over or military support.

it's one more step in the wrong direction
the scariest bit is the absent response??

(at least from this distant perspective - you know how in UK this is like a soap opera)

now it depends on mcconnell restarting the democracy process as senate leader, isnt it?
if they can delay that, it would be another step

Sufi! You haven't read the thread!

 

[luka]

I can't believe this! Anyone else I'd think, well, what can you expect. But Sufi! Not Sufi!

its strange for us to get to see raw unhollywoodised americans like this, we kind of expect them sanitised

Sufi! You haven't read the thread!

what thread?

 

[Mr. Tea]

I want to know what Oliver Craner thinks.

"Sarah Palin", followed by "Sorry, what was the question?"

oh, it's really bad, no question. but a coup would have an immediate next step, a power grab. there's no grab here.

 

[IdleRich]

Yeah, I see a load of morons who want to shout about the election, to their surprise the police presence is really light so they push and it retreats... they push a bit harder and they're in the fucking capitol pissing in the altar (or whatever) and having sex on Pelosi's desk. I'm sure it wasn't planned to go that far... question is why was the police response so light and weirdly ineffective.

You couldn't even mount a coup in Fuji like that let alone America.

 

[luka]

And they have a coup in Fuji every other week.

Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren ١ س
The violence at the Capitol today was an attempted coup and act of insurrection egged on by a corrupt President to overthrow our democracy.

Attempted coup is different i suppose

 

[Leo]

 

[luka]

We know for a fact they've been allowed to do it. We don't exactly know why. If it was a coup attempt there would be a plan. So the assumption has to be, I think, that anti trump powers let it happen.

Mount Fuji - is this a haiku?

 

[luka]

Feegee sorry

 

[Mr. Tea]

Mount Fuji - is this a haiku?

The country that's so corrupt it doesn't even exist!

 

[luka]

My assumption at this stage is that Trump is in for a very rocky landing and this is part of the set up

Where's Homeland Security superhero Chad Wolf?
