They have their knock-off ar-15. They're safe from drone strikes and tanks.

i am really really grateful for shahter's political hot takes. it's like interacting with anthony soprano jnr. in his teenage emo phase.

'everything is a lie! capitalism is the root of all evil! maybe ... maybe we are the tyrants after all?'

incredible stuff for a man nearing 50 to be going through. i remember reading the communist manifesto in college, too.

Pennsylvania Republicans Spark Chaos By Refusing To Seat Democratic State Senator
https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/pennsylv … 00041.html

At the heart of the Republicans’ objection is a pending lawsuit over more than 300 mail-in ballots that were not dated on the outer envelope as state law says they should be. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court, however, decided that the ballots should be counted because the handwritten date is not technically mandatory.

One Georgia race was won by the democrats. The other looks like it too. The fuckers did it. They flipped the senate. Amazing.

i am happy for americans and their slowly regaining knack for commonsense. they saw Qanon-flirting, venal, corrupt republican loonies and they said no.

also a great result for young and black americans, who have turned georgia around for the first time in generations.

It's nice that there might be something positive here. No indication of it in irl talks with "conservative" friends though, who seem to be either Trumpist or Republican voters who voted for Trump because he's the Republican. At least some of the ones who spouted off about "rule of law" during police violence protests have clammed up with Trump abusing his pardon power and threatening/blackmailing officials.

you are truly a fucking moron. I never said democracy was perfect, but it is much better than despotic sovietism.

your understanding of marxism has stalled in the 19th century reading list. I dare say I've read more post-marxist texts than you have and know more about contemporary 'left' theory. you insisting that capitalism affects democracy is not news to ANYONE, not even ordo-liberals in the citadels of the west. dipshit.

i said they are regaining a sense of commonsense and decency and rejecting the politics of paranoid conspiracy-theory bullshit. where did i say democracy was perfect?

democracy is tainted by capitalism, sure. it's a lesser evil than living in a totalitarian state, though. your nostalgia for stalin is abhorrent. stop pretending like we're all living in some deluded la-la-land whilst you're there seriously proposing revolution and the reintroduction of the NKVD. you are an idiot.

the real-world is about compromises and complex decisions. real democracy, imperfect democracy, is often a matter of gradualism and middle-ground solutions. i think democracy is doing a better job of leaving people the hell alone and respecting human dignity than communism ever did. many democrats want to curb the excesses of capitalism too, you know.

I remember conservatives were happy back in November that Biden and the democrats didn't get as big of a victory as they had hoped. They said the country rejected liberal policies. I wonder what their arguments are going to be regarding the fact that they lost Georgia and the Senate to democrats.

They're already prattling on about midnight vote dumps and such. Again I saw something of a "Bu-bu-but _____ was ahead by x votes at y% reporting. How is it possible they lost?" It's at best a fundamental misunderstanding about things like mail-in ballots where they falsely assume they would be split 50-50.

Livestream from the ongoing occupation. Hundreds of them. Police retreated?

Still watching. They broke into the building from another door. Senate and Mike Pence had to flee the building using the underground tunnels.

This is historic. One of the worst things I have ever seen.

PBS Newshour Capital Hill correspondent stuck in the building. She is on T.V. while hiding under a desk while people are screaming at her. The building fire alarm is going off. Glass is breaking in the background. I have never seen anything like this.

Soldier cop with a rifle is now escorting her out. Congress is wearing gas mask they were given by police.

trumpism is a reality-denying mental disease and this is the irruption. your own president encouraged this and denounced his VP. it’s worse than a destabilised african republic.

all those republican senators who were milking this as a bit of political theatre or career opportunism, like slimy ted cruz, have been playing with fire. they should be arrested for abetting this travesty.

There are pictures of them inside the congress chamber. They are allegedly going door to door looking for congress people.

so a fascist street gang made up by the founder of vice magazine ‘for the lulz’, talking about white lives matter and the death of masculinity, blah blah, all the usual dilbert fare, have just upended the electoral process of the world’s most powerful nation.

but remember it’s muslims we should perceive as an existential threat to the west. and lesbian teachers. it’s ‘critical race theory’ that led to this.
