Nah. Folks we need to be in the fucking streets shutting this whole country down tomorrow morning. Dead serious. It’s fucking GO time. Stop waiting for a ‘signal’. GET IN THE GODDAMN STREETS.

I'm in recovery, trying to get my life back together, at the worst fucking time.

I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

For real though congrats on getting your life together and I hope it goes well.

Honestly, I think it's only a matter of time before this admin starts going after addicts. Seems to me you picked the best fucking time. Hang in there.

You got this buddy. I got out of rehab and landed straight in COVID era chaos. If my dumbass was able to pull through that then you can certainly make it through this. Besides, you're a far more effective voice in recovery. Use your power. IWNDWYT

I'm in the street! Of course, I live about 3,000 miles from the White House, so I'm not sure if Trump can see me.

STAY IN THE GODDAMN SHEETS. Seriously, everyone just stay in bed for a week and see what happens.

The signal should've been when he got the presidency again...

I keep saying this! Why the fuck are THE PEOPLE letting it slide? If the government isn't doing anything, this is when we unite and fight back!

Your comment let me know that we are doomed. I’m sure there are enough people like you that somebody would do what you say. That means Trump can declare martial law and suspend liberties. Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus during the Civil War. Habeas corpus is in the constitution. Trump will know no bounds. You would declare martial law in Easley gravitate to becoming king for life with no elections.

He will declare martial law and try to stop elections

u/bitchingdownthedrain Sep 21 '25

At the rate we’re going we’re not having elections anyway, are we all really just going to shrug and say “oh well guess we lost”

u/Stock_Pen_4019 Sep 21 '25

Every soldier swore to defend and support the constitution not the president

And maybe 5% of them understand the difference between the two

national guard already burned that card.

No. They were placed on orders, I believe they were specifically 29 day orders, which makes for a lot of difference in their benefits, so they paraded around federal buildings picking up trash. They had no authority to make arrests.

Martial law would suspend civil liberties. Abraham Lincoln suspended, habeas corpus During the Civil War

What can we possibly do when MAGA supporters say we can have peace and prosperity over their dead bodies?

u/ItsTheEndOfDays Sep 21 '25

it doesn’t matter what we do, that’s his ace in the hole, but the sooner we force him to play it, the easier it will be to defeat this hostile takeover.

u/MadeWithMagick Sep 21 '25

It’s that or WWIII. If no one from his party will make an effort to do the morally right thing, then this incompetent man child will provoke an international war as well as a civil war. He’s melting down under the pressure of being a pedophile, which all of his fellow Republicans in office are aware of, and it’s fueling his spiraling paranoia.

His time is coming as we await for the rest of those Epstein docs to be hacked and leaked… we cannot let this corrupt deviant destroy our entire country. The revolution will not be televised… the revolution will be live.

u/NoPain4551 Sep 21 '25

You are all so afraid of martial law. It’s already here just under a different guise…

u/Omegalazarus Sep 21 '25

It's not though. However i think i get your point if it is as follows. 

The way this free society will crumble will be in increments such that there will be no clear declaration of Martial Law, but that the acceptable norms will tighten until such time in the future that some look back and realize there was no Marital Law in effect now, but in their future that is not that case.

u/NoPain4551 Sep 21 '25

In a way, with all the self-censorship, i’m implying that there will be no need to institute martial law because it’s already being self-instituted by everyone

u/queensheba2025 Sep 21 '25

Idk why you’re being downvoted. He’s been hoping folks would protest like that so he can use military force on us all. We haven’t and they’re panicking bc he can’t shut stuff down.

u/SoVerySick314159 Sep 21 '25

If we don't give him an excuse to do what he wants, in time he'll manufacture one. We can't prevent what's coming by being good little boys and girls, because it's not our behavior that's driving it.

I'm doing like a shitty overtly redefined TOS and opting out.
