Would that mean we get paid?

1 Turnip a day, wait no, why would we need you? He said keep all posts.


On a more serious note, it is well know that when government nationalize social institution, they make sure they dont control any of it, thats what its all about.

[Machismo]

When it's the same handful of posters with tens of thousands of posts posting the same opinions for thousands of pages you guys should be masters at spotting an outsider by now.

It was easy, we had you pegged from the very beginning.

In 2021 if you aren't on social media your words will go nowhere. Your ideas may as well not exist.

Then they better behave and not incite violence. How hard can that be?

'QAnon Shaman' demanding organic food in jail after US Capitol arrest

The "QAnon shaman" arrested after taking part in the storming of the US Capitol building last week is reportedly demanding organic food in jail.

Arizona man Jake Angeli, 33, is facing federal misdemeanour charges after being photographed wearing a buffalo headdress and tricolour facepaint amid the mob of Donald Trump zealots who attacked the government building.

He is accused of knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority and violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.

qanon massively infiltrated the wellness community. Yoga has been a traditional place to recruit for cults, no surprise really.

Him only wanting to eat organic food makes sese, since these conspiritards think the goverments all over the world spray the food intentionally with mind-altering pesticide and "testosterone blocking GMO"

I'm curious.

Are you saying if a congressman pulls a gun on the floor and shoots another congressman in the face, killing them, they should face absolutely no consequences as they are "elected"?

Is that what you are saying?

Because willfully spreading a deadly pathogen to others is basically the same.

No it’s not. Getting shot in the face is far more deadly. I’m not saying don’t wear a mask. You just used a really bad example.

[Felya]

No it’s not. Getting shot in the face is far more deadly.

They were going to hang Pence, not shoot him in the face. I think the gallows was for Palosi... I’m not saying the guy with 11 Molotov cocktails or the guys who planted bombs at RNC and DNC nor the guys that killed a cop... wouldn’t have shot people in the face... but, clarifying... Pence hanged, Palosi crucified, police bombed with Molotov cocktails and RNC/DNC bombed... no specific plans to shoot anyone in the face were found.

Umm, sir, the noggin is not the face. /s

Not much of a difference that anyone so targeted would appreciate.

So expel democracy? This 2nd coup?

No, expel dangerous, reckless, irresponsible lawmakers who directly put others at risk and likely infected them because they're such huge snowflakes they think wearing a mask is an assault on their freedoms.

Not sure how that is confused for a coup. Not sure how holding people accountable for their actions is a coup.

But I guess the conservative victim-train in the US is still marching full steam ahead. Sure, it may have run over a bunch of people, but it's their fault for being in the track and the train is the real victim here because now it's all covered in gross blood and guts and ew.

Simon & Schuster cancel Sen. Josh Hawley book deal following Capital riots

[Ripster42]

Question, because I haven't seen a definitive answer on the subject. Is everything involving the insurrection considered federal crimes? As in, if Donald pardons them, is there nothing they can be charged with via DC, or are DC charges all considered federal since DC isn't a state?

Guessing murder is still a crime in the city of DC.

This last part was really what I was thinking in the recent days, but I don't think it only applies to congress. It applies to everyone in the Republican party who let Trump prevail with his fairy tale of the stolen election and did not object. The likes of Mitch McConell and Lindsay Graham have to take ownership of their lies and deception of their constituants. They really need to man up. Which we all know they won't.

If we are to restore democratic norms and make sure this does not happen again, these congressional Republicans will have to take personal responsibility for their actions in support of Trump’s coup attempt. They must tell the truth to their constituents about the election and what the president tried to do in January 2021. They owe it to the people they represent as well as the country they serve.

That would require for Republicans in Congress to have actual morals but like we have always seen they have none. They will not take responsibility and many have already latched onto the idea that Antifa had trained from birth sleeper agents that were inserted in order to take Trump down due to their Satanic witches prophecies that Trump will be the one true king to save the land from Satan or whatever fantasies they can make up so they don't take responsibility.

Yeah, I've read that, too. On the other hand... the free market will fix this, since corporate donors are jumping ship left and right Money talks.

Ehh... I feel that the corporate donors pulling out is more of a knee-jerk reaction than it is a paradigm shift.
