You know that Umberto Eco quote leftists love to bring up, about how fascists present their enemies as both weak and strong as it suits them? I guess communists have the inverse strategy, pretending to be simultaneously strong resistance fighters while also being completely helpless bystanders who simply want to live in accordance with the law.

Eco was right about that, but he failed to note that this phenomenon is not unique to "fascists" (right-wing authoritarians), but is also found amongst the left-wing ones as well. In fact, I would argue that it is even more pronounced on the Left.

Your state cares more about illegal than your fellow veterans who are homeless and killing themselves. And I guess you do too.

I've noticed that myself. I call it the "I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you" defense. Get in your face, annoy you, act tough. And then when they bring somebody to the point of rocking their shit. They cry and point fingers while screeching "but I never did anything, waaah, this man is evil, he struck me for absolutely no reason at all".
It's middle school type nonsense, with usually crying to an ideologically captured federal government instead of some teacher. Except now the government is actively hostile towards them. And all they have is their commie buttbuddies, among other brown biomass.

My guess it's a retarded form of giving themselves some form of deniability when facing consequences of their wrongdoings.

The BBC home page right now has 3 articles about the ICE shooting and 0 about the protests

That just demonstrates what we already know: that any minor niggle on US soil is leagues above in importance than any other happening anywhere else in the world.

Now the real question...will Florida RINOs actually support it? Indiana should've been a slam dunk but the Indiana GOP completely shit the bed

good question
this sorta frees it from the main legislative session but it still makes it a commodity to play with during the main session
previously I recall Ron throwing out the lines the gopes handed him for redder lines of his choosing, no clue how it'll play out this time

"Where the fuck are you gonna deport me to?" - Arguments continue between protesters and counter-protesters across from the Federal Building in Minneapolis

1.mp4

"Find out who he is", "You just lost your job"

I love that the agents have masks, it pisses them off to no end because they can't do their usual song and dance.

I like how the crowd is 95% white in a country in which I doubt there's a single zip code with those demographics.

I am greatly disappointed in the lack of nightsticks. Do better ICE.

Friendly reminder that it was only a few years ago when the "dirtbag left" laughed their heads off at a person "doming" and "melon-splitting" and "blikking down" someone in the head "if they're your political enemy". The shooter was an "HK king" (headshot king).

As one speaker on this podcast states, "hey, it's one less Republican. You know. It's one less person you have to face at your PTA board meeting."

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

Do these activists types have any idea how goofy they sound when they collectively screech “shame”?

They think it's Game of Thrones or some shit. It's all performative. If there were no cameras, no one would show up to these protests.

On that note, where's the god damn fire hose? I want to see all those old fat white women getting doused.
