January 6 ended with a single bullet.

I don’t think they came anywhere close to overthrowing the government. Trump didn’t call out the National Guard but the surrounding states sent theirs in. Had the asshats persisted I have no doubt that there would have been a lot of dead insurrectionists.

That’s not how revolutions work. Soldiers are trained to do one thing, to kill people who shoot at them. If you shoot at soldiers there is a very high liklihood that you’re going to end up very, very dead. The only way a revolution in the US will work is if the army switches sides to support the people. If that doesn’t happen, the revolution will not succeed. A bunch of Gravy Seals in ill fitting mismatched surplus store body armour carrying AR-15s will never succeed in overthrowing the US government no matter how many childish circle jerk murder fantasies they share. What will win the revolution in the US is old ladies with pots and pans and young people with whistles. You need to get enough people off their asses and into the streets making noise and protesting. That means you need over 12 million people in the streets protesting on a sustained basis then you need the army to suppor the people.

Mine, too.
- Comment on But bro please 5 days ago:
That’s a little different. That was an insurgency, not a revolution, and they were heavily supported by China and Russia. That would be more comparable to the years long grinding insurgency that would bankrupt the US if it ever tried to take over Canada.

Sure, but they will get in that tank inside a well fortified base protected by helecopters with door mounted mini guns and Hellfire missiles, go out and kill people with piddly little AR-15s at an industrial scale, then return to their well fortified bases for afternoon tea.
The second ammendment was wirten back when the people and the government had the same weapons. That isn’t the case anymore. If you take on the government, you die. If 100,000 of you take on the government most of you die. Unless you can get a sizeable portion of the peopulation out from in front of Keeping Up with the Kardashains and into the street to protest you’re a pedofascist dictatorship for the forseeable future.

Anyone who thinks their AR-15 ga going to let them take on a tyrannical government has no understanding of how tanks work.

Not the socialist boogieman that the right uses to inspire panic among the stupid.

He’s not a socialist, he’s a social democrat like Canada and most of Europe.

- Comment on Why have so many people stopped posting on social media? 2 months ago:
Because all social media is a fetid cesspool of pedofascist bootlicking and foreign bots pretending to be pedofascist bootlickers and foreign troll farms pretending to be pedofascist bootlickers. That’s why I left anyway.

My girlfriend is sometimes a turkey and she loves to be eaten. She asks to be eaten. Sometimes, when she’s really in need, she begs for me you eat her. I have no idea what the original post was talking about

In capitalism the workers do all the work and most of the benefit goes to the oligarchs.
I’m communism the workers do all of the work and most of the benefit goes to the government and kleptocrats.
In socialism the workers do all of the work and most of the benefit stays with the workers.
I like the sound of socialism.

The last time Trump messed wth these visad my company moved a bunch of engineers to Canada. The change for the US is those engineers are no longer paying taxes in the US. The change for Canada is they are paying taxes in Canada. I call that a win.
I’m. Canadian.
