DeSantis is telling everyone that he's going to destroy the United States, and you're all just sitting there.
I'm not gonna vote for him. He's not even a candidate yet. What should I be doing?
Laughing at Desantis’ ignorance or crying because republican voters are just as ignorant and eat that shit up.
Or my favorite… alternating between the two
Training and prepping. Historically, there's only been one way to stop fascist conservatism, and it's not something we are allowed to talk openly about until we're doing it.
Did the 6th of January insurrectionists do the right thing, given they believed they were fighting against an authoritarian government? Or should they have accepted the result of the democratic process even though they disagreed with it?
So when Hitler got voted in, the moral choice was to respect the democratic process and the completely legal murder of 12 million people. Got it
I agree in the event of a genocidal government, you throw them out, but obviously there needs to be a very high bar and a lot of safeguards to prevent partisan misuse. A losing Republican could claim a winning Democrat wants to conduct a genocide against unborn babies or something and the Jan6 insurrectionists would feel they were justified because of it.
What are the most damning pieces of evidence that Desantis will conduct a genocide if elected?
Should the 2016 election result have been overturned?
Oh no. Is this the audience here?
What is this supposed to imply?
Sorry if you wanted a fascist safe space, maybe try twitter,
lol
Making sure that all of the subhuman republicans around you are as uncomfortable as humanly possible. They live among us and far too many people tolerate them.
Not much can be done as of yet. The election season will really kick off in January, and short of hiring a hit squad, marching around with signs and getting screamed at/assaulted by rednecks doesn't really seem too effective. What would you propose?
Do the Florida sewer and septic sucking service workers have a union? Might be able to convince them to use their, ah “waste” from yet another school’s clogged septic tanks to, uh “fertilize” desantis’ yard.
we are not just sitting here, we're posting it to kbin!
He's polling worse than fucking RFK jr, he stands no chance. YoUr'Re AlL JuSt SiTtInG tHeRe! We're more than a year away from the general election, which he will never make it to because there are months of primaries before where Trump will assuredly win.
Man, I remember in 2015 when there was "no way trump could possibly win the primaries, just look at the polls" and then "there's no way trump can win the general, just look at the polls."
I love comments like this for the blatant lack of self-awareness that you're doing exactly what everyone else is.
While somehow finding a way to feel like you're better than.
Relax, we're doing a sit in.
He's polling a distant 2nd to trump believe it or not. Twice impeached, twice indicted traitorous trump is polling highest among R in their primary.
