As time moves forward, I think more and more frequently about trying to get out of this shithole counry.

Yes.

The answer is that this is all a bunch of stupid bullshit and that the Trumplicans truly don’t give a damn about laws that no one can force them to follow.

At this point, there’s really no point in trying to look for consistency or rational justification for anything these people do.

The article makes me wonder if Waltz is intentionally countering the counter-revolution.

Either that, or he’s just stupid as fuck.

Maybe both.

I don’t trust any of these polls.

Things aren’t bad for him yet, and that’s the only way he knows if things are bad.

They’re openly rejecting court order and legal precedent.

Unless someone starts enforcing these court orders, they’re just going to keep doing things.

They’re running the Nazi playbook. Word for word, step by step, just updated with newer propaganda.

Yeah? I’ll do this if I’m forced to use Outlook for work again.

I’m interested in knowing this too as I’d like to migrate everything I do to a non-invasive platform.

Also making giant rebar craps all over

I hope so.

It’s 100% fascist rule, pure and simple.

We have a handful of national politicians who are trying to resist while the vast majority of them are simply playing along to preserve their own status and power. Democrat/Republican haven’t meant anything substantial for a while now–you have to look at who’s paying them (via ‘donations’ or otherwise) to know.

We can hope that they start killing each other (which they’d do if they had any backbone). Otherwise, our options are both extreme and extremely limited.

When regular working people eventually win, we’re going to have to reinstitute all the controls that we had for decades preventing single corporations from owning too much of the media. Break it up into little pieces. One of the first things corporations did when they got their first man, Reagan, in power was consolidate the airwaves; they know that’s the tool necessary for them to repeat and spread lies, and without this tool, they’re going to lose.

It’s not an accident that Sinclair owns most of the local tv stations broadcasting to rural markets and that all the AM radio stations are run by a small handful of Conservative propagandists.

We’ve gotta get that shit shut down–a limit on the number of stations any company can own, massive fines for violating standards of truthfulness, etc.
