He’s in prison now, right?
i mean, i think anyone who assassinated trump would be a hero too. it really isn’t crossing the line and shouldn’t be. it’s just exchanging ideas.
he said he’d be a dictator on day one. If nobody manages to kill trump its proof that the 2nd amendment doesn’t work.
Murder is definitely crossing a line. The line is called “murder” and you cross it when you assassinate someone.
Is it different if they are trying to have you killed? Like am I allowed to hunt my hunters?
sure but just saying “that assassin is a hero” isn’t.
They’re the “anti-vaxxers” of politics. Like those who have lived in a world for such a long time without the death toll faced by people pre-modern medicine then complain about having to get vaccinated the people that seek political upheaval and want a dictator never faced living in a country run by a dictator and all the problems that go with it. So tossing out ideas to start a fascist regime are the same as being anti-vax, they’ve never lost children and parents to diseases that vaccines would have prevented over a lifetime, they’ve never had family and friends picked up by State political police, beaten, disappeared or jailed because of something they said or because a neighbor turned them in for something.
Exactly this.
Based on my 2020 experience, seeing people whining about not being able to go to Olive Garden, I am pretty sure that the keyboard warriors are not prepared for the inconvenience of living in a war zone.
It’s like the will to power but triggered by boredom and misplaced dissatisfaction with the status quo. Back in the day these would be people saying that this generation needs a war (this is before proxy wars and remote warfare)
It reminds me of Mike Tyson’s quote,
Social media made y’all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.
I think what’s happening is that these people.
They live in a bubble, believing it’s okay to say anything because of “freedom of speech.”
But in reality, they don’t even have the guts to insult someone to their face, let alone threaten them with assassination.
in the fathe
They have no idea what all these words mean. It’s embarrassing. Their tweets read like an edgy teenager discovering instant messaging
Anybody who murders Trump would be a hero. Now come at me, ameridiots, your laws and agencies mean shit to me.
Did they check on elon musk as well?
Yes actually. They opened an investigation.
Speedrunning into insanity much?
Maybe Elon is getting to me, but … what compels assholes like this to say things like this and not do it themselves? I guess they need to keep away from actually doing it so that they can later claim they never were the ones to do it and that their joke statement was taken out of context.
It’s much easier to talk mad shit online when you’ve grown accustomed to the idea that there are no consequences for anything you say. They’re perfectly happy to let the consequences of doing fall to someone else.
I think being a coward is part of the persona
Ffs, America. You’re not well, are you?
I mean when Trump was shot at, people here had a quite similar sentiment.
Also all the “violence is not part of american political culture” hurrdurrs of politicians and celebrities afterwards are just completely false. Violence and political violence are an integral part of American culture. I think no other country had as many successful and attempted assassinations of their presidents.
Tbh… When I visited Denver last week from melbourne, sadly I discovered the people there were doing better than here. It seems like a few people here have gotten far more toxic than the US.
Everyone there was super nice.
That being said though, the same kind of voter here causing things to be bad for everyone, seem to be the same as US
Denver is one of the more educated and civilized areas of the US.
It…is?
It is, provided you specifically do not look at the driving skills of the people who live there…
Denver is a liberal island in the generally quite conservative American west.
The whole country going insane makes me feel like I’M insane, because a rational world view no longer applies.
We’re like the only “first world” country that has no healthcare and we have more billionaires then any other country and soon to be one trillionaire, what do you think?
more billionaires then any other country
And a crap load of people living on or under the poverty live working two or three jobs with zero PTO, crippling student debt ratios, sky high childcare costs, no family leave, and on and on. No, you don’t seem well.
It’s insane that you have people working multiple part time jobs totaling 40+ hr/week but still don’t have employer-subsidized healthcare because employers don’t have to offer it to employees working under a certain number of hours/week. And there are businesses that deliberately offer only part time jobs for that exact reason.
I’m not well versed in this but I was under the assumption that anyone who worked 32 or more hours was eligible for some kind of insurance through their employer, which is why so many people are stuck at 31 hours a week.
I’m not super well versed on it either, but yes, 30 hours or more is considered full time employment, and businesses that have 50 or more full time or full time equivalent employees are required to offer heatlhcare. But a lot of small businesses aren’t going to meet the 50 employee requirement. The situation I was focusing on was a person with several different employers, none of which is required to offer health care to their employee who works for them for let’s say 15 hrs/week.
Capitalism at it’s finest. Working just as intended. Nothing to see here, move along, serfs.
Oh, look, someone who’s different. Let’s get angry at them instead!
I like the cut of your jib!
This is a country that’s more afraid of not having a gun, than not having a doctor. We are not run by adults.
This is a nation that says you can get a license to drive a large metal death trap at insane speeds at 16, die in a war at 18, but you have to be 21 to drink the Evil Fermented No-No Juice… and 25 to RENT a large metal death trap at insane speed
We have no idea what an adult is.
That he thought got 'em in that video and decided to post it is absolutely hilarious.
“mUh rEgImE!”
I mean, he kinda did. I am a liberal that is perfectly fine with some exercising their rights. If he was wrong they would have showed ID and arrested him. Although a lot of first amendment auditors lean right/far right I still appreciate what they do.
Ah yes, thinly veiled calls for stochastic terrorism. A totally cool and normal thing to do.
Not sure what you are saying here at all? It is not in the first amendment to protect anyone from instigating or encouraging injuries/death to another. They could arrest and detain him and confiscate his computers and start an investigation if they wanted, that just costs more, so they likely are following a protocol of dumb fuck says dumb comment. Start remote investigation. Find something more, make sure he knows they’re aware. If he persists things will escalate
Did you read the comment I’m replying to? Because what you said had nothing to do with that.
Now do Elon.
Judging from the amount of kids he’s got, I think Elon’s been “done” enough.
Didn’t the SS do that?
Oh geez…both sides love to throw this whole “Nazism” thing around…
?? Secret Service = Nazism? Since when?
The SS were an elite division of political soldiers under Hitler.
To be fair, I’ve never seen Secret Service abbreviated to SS.
Ahh then I guess you never worked a government job? They abbreviate everything as much as possible. I totally forgot about the SS Nazi thing and assumed it was Secret Service.
No I’ve never worked a government job. But you are right, they like to abbreviate everything haha.
Some would argue since the term Nazism was around but…
I meant secret service.
Waffen?
Secret service.
Don’t let nazis control parts of our language.
Not everyone lives in The US and i thought the same.
Ohhh right.
With the people Elon has been endorsing I think it’s a fair question.
Can’t you just imagine all those Libertarians sitting around in their nightly circle jerk talking about this? “I really showed those guys!” “You sure did!” <fap><fap<fap> “I sent them packing with the First Ammendment!” “You sure did!” <fap><fap><fap> “They were so embarasses!” “So embarassed!” <fap><fap><fap> “Then I decided to take the posts down on my own, not because they showed up!” “On your own!” <fap><fap><fap>
It sounds to me as though those two guys from the FBI delivered their message loud and clear. Doesn’t it sound like that to you, too?
It sounds to me as though you have weird fantasies about libertarians, lol
You’re projecting.
Can I get a lol with a side of smh?
Democratic regime manifest
Never thought I’d see someone unironically chant Democracy Manifest, but here we are
This is democracy manifest! Can’t a man enjoy a succulent Chinese meal?! A succulent Chinese meal!!!
A Chinese meal? THEY’RE EATING THE DOGS!!
Ahh, yes. I see you know your judo well.
lol smh
That’s less a look of “shame”, and more a look of “how am I even in the same subset of genetic distribution as this moron?”
Love the expression of the guy on the left. Probably describes everything you need to know about the encounter.
