Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•I'm going to tell this one entirely through screenshotsEnglish18·4 months agoPTB for sure, but I gotta say- when one lies down with dogs….
You’re just not allowed to disagree with them there. Even if you’re cordial about it. Respectful and rule abiding comments are removed daily from there. It’s in the modlogs. I honesty don’t know why anyone bothers with them.
It’s one thing if a rule can be cited as a reason for removal/ban, but they just slap “rule 1” on everything.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effortEnglish1·4 months agoWell, considering that a Time Machine is out of the question, and the military- who happens to be capable of using satellites in space to turn every single one of you into a pink mist without even scratching the paint on your neighbors car- is not on your side, I’d say your only option is through diplomacy.
Because face it- America fucked up.
This was all avoidable back in November. There was the chance to overcome this problem- no… to avoid it all-together. But too many chose not to. They chose to make a statement. And now, sadly- everyone suffers for it. That’s it. The end.
If it helps- let’s look at it this way:
Let’s say you committed a crime¹. You are caught, and have been found guilty² Your penance, is prison³. Now, while in prison, you can plan to escape⁴, but you know that won’t work, it’s impossible, and if it were, it would only be so for someone smart enough to pull it off. That you commuted the crime and got caught, illustrates that you are not.
You’re not getting out. Plain and simple.
Now optionally, you can just sit there and stew in the colossal failure that caused you to be in there to begin with and work towards learning from your mistakes so that if/when you are released, you can do better⁵- or you can work with your lawyer(s) on your options to have your sentence overturned⁶.
Those are your options.
In this scenario:
• ¹ - didn’t vote against Trump
• ² - Trump gets elected
• ³ - Trump’s term
• ⁴ - Proposed armed uprising attempt
• ⁵ - Pay attention and be an informed voter
• ⁶ - Be active in local politics. Help in any way you are able to help move the states motions to impeach when the time comes. Work with local groups to petition state reps to act on his crimes.It’s this or nothing.
Because if you think you have the organization, tactical knowledge, technical functionality, manpower, and arms to overcome the most powerful military on the planet, I would say go right ahead and try-
But know that in doing so- you’re gong to get a LOT of innocent people killed. It’ll be a fucking bloodbath.
And in the end, whoever remains- gets trump for life.
Lastly, do not mistake my suggesting that nothing can be done as a willingness to do nothing about it. Some people sit in prison, knowing they fucked up. They’re not giving in. They’re just quietly having the balls it takes to know they royally fucked it, and working towards understanding how they can avoid a repeat scenario.
Being a realist is not a weakness. Not is it being compliant. It’s simply accepting a circumstance that is out of one’s control.
And for the record, peaceful protest is provenly more effective than violence. Reference:
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effortEnglish1·4 months agoI love how people can’t debate without writing lines for their opponent. It has the added benefit of making it easier to just tag them as a waste of time.
If you want to discuss this, I get to say my part in this- not you.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effortEnglish1·4 months agoI didn’t say that either.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effortEnglish1·4 months agoAnd the minute they begin to fight, Trump locks it all down and America enters into a martial law that I guarantee won’t end before his third term.
If there’s an uprising- it’ll have to be all-or-nothing- and that nothing will come at a heavy cost.
I really hope people know this is exactly what he wants. You’re being baited into giving him everything he needs.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effortEnglish2·4 months agoThis is how you guarantee trump’s third term.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effortEnglish4·4 months agoI think you’re 100% correct.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effortEnglish2·4 months agowhen the fuck do we rise up?
As long as there’s an internet to keep the keyboard warriors happy enough to just complain about it online and then walk away feeling like they’re part of the resistance?
Never.
And the moment there is an uprising, you’ve just given Trump his reason to secure a third term. So, there’s that.
From where I see it- the only way to fight this is to create a functional time machine and go back and tell the ninety one million people smooth-brained dipshits that sitting their asses and whining about genocide in a country they couldn’t have even pointed to on a map a year and a half ago- would result in everything happening now.
This was avoidable.
And now we have to contend with the possibility of having to participate in an absolute shitshow of a bloodbath as the only means to regain the freedoms we had just a few months ago?
I honestly don’t know who’s worse; the far left protest voting- dumbasses that helped put us here, or the far right MAGA voting dumbasses that wanted to put us here.

Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Moderator locks post because he doesn't like commentsEnglish1·4 months agoI guess the mod is exempt from it all though? Because they were there stirring the pot and didn’t get a single comment removed.
Bias is fine as it’s impossible to not be at times, but pretending to run a community as “anarchistic” while showing a clear bias and pretending to be neutral is bad faith in my book.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Moderator locks post because he doesn't like commentsEnglish1·4 months agoThat’s off topic.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Moderator locks post because he doesn't like commentsEnglish1·4 months agoNo, they didn’t. DB0 should have just removed the comments that the mod was making that was stirring the pot.
This could have been handled in private. But instead, the community mod was involved the comments- arguing politics. They even admitted as much that they were off topic when I tried to stop it.
Go ahead and check to see if their comets were removed.
They weren’t.
Mine were.
Note how the mod stoked the fire, and the admin came in to lock it down.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Moderator locks post because he doesn't like commentsEnglish1·4 months agoEven when the mod was involved in the political talk and didn’t get their shit removed?
This is clearly PTB material.
Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Moderator locks post because he doesn't like commentsEnglish7·4 months agoThe irony is, the mod was in the comments arguing politics. My comments were removed, and theirs weren’t.
Even when I was the one trying to tell them that I wasn’t going to argue with them because they have removed my comments for being off topic in the past.
This is factually proven PTB.

Rhoeri@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•California man ordered to leave the U.S. ‘immediately’ despite providing birth certificate: ‘I’m not trying to be one of the government’s mistakes’English10·4 months ago“Criminal prosecution” requires a system of law. However the lawless dictator that overthrew the throne has no intention of acknowledging that there is a system of law in place that doesn’t benefit him directly.
So, this could end poorly.
They’re full of shit. Don’t listen to them.
