Lib Jan 6 would be so funny. Please do it.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Lib Jan 6 goes like this:

The center-right Joe Biden will use the national guard to put it down before y'all can even get near it, and calling them "far-left extremists" on tv, then trump will tweet: "Sleepy Joe is using ANTIFA to STEAL OUR VICTORY blah blah NEVER SURRENDER!"

Most of them are getting shot and the rest jailed, and when trump takes over, the AG will be pushing for maximum punishment.

This will be his Reichstag Fire and the Enabling Act will pass with bipartisan support.

Lib Jan 6 is just what's currently happening: asking the Trump transition team politely to sign the necessary paperwork before granting access to top secret information.

That's the amount of actual resistance we can ever expect from the "institutions are sacred, people are only important if they donate at least $5000 per election season" Dem leadership.

Yeah, just throw a can of gasoline in the fire, watching it explode and burn up everything sounds like a fucking good time.
