American Politics I: It's All Applesauce

[Austria-Bohemia-Hungary]

What in the actual fuck is going on

We're relying on Virginia State Police to defend the Republic because the MPD is incompetent, the DCNG is emasculated and the USSS isn't nearly enough to deal with a coup d'etat.

[Shrillland]

What in the actual fuck is going on

Nothing much, just the beginning of the end of the United States of America.

[Cordel One]

Okay, cops are definitely clearing the building now. Pepper spray and riot shields have come out.

Funnily enough the protestors are bitching and moaning about it.

Trumpists fucking around and finding out.

They thought voraciously licking boots would make them immune to the police state.

They kinda did, though. Think about how much more brutal the cops woulda been if it were BLM or anti-fascists.

[San Lumen]

What in the actual fuck is going on

A armed insurrection and coup attempt

[Gravlen]

This is absolutely extraordinary to watch.

Were this any other country, we would be talking about a failed state.

Since it's the US, we're only talking about a failing state.

[Andsed]

As I said this was going to spread.

You were right, I'm sorry for calling you paranoid.

I really wish I was just being paranoid tbh.

Several counties in Maryland are sending help too.

Trump is promising to pardon them all.

oh god it's like 1991 again

in the soviet union

Stop it now. This is not even remotely funny

[Cordel One]

I hope the protestors are socially distancing.

"Now before we storm this building guys, I just wanna ensure that we are following the current safety rules. Don't wanna catch Covid while we're running around, do we?"

To the awesome quotes thread with you.

[Jerzylvania]

It speaks volumes that Trump is not even trying to calm the situation.

He threw out a tweet into the darkness. Fucking useless

That's because he's Boss Tweet.

[Qhevak]

Trumpists fucking around and finding out.

They thought voraciously licking boots would make them immune to the police state.

They kinda did, though. Think about how much more brutal the cops woulda been if it were BLM or anti-fascists.

Cops would have been cracking skulls before they even reached the steps.

[Stellar Colonies]

This is absolutely extraordinary to watch.

Were this any other country, we would be talking about a failed state.

Since it's the US, we're only talking about a failing state.

Or a tripping state, at the very least.

In multiple meanings of the word...

[Cultural Posadism]

Trumpists fucking around and finding out.

Where's BLM when you need them? Surely they'll save the trumpists from the police!

I wonder why BLM protestors aren't rushing to defend a bunch of white supremacist terrorists trying to stage a coup in defense of the failed president who openly encouraged the sort of police behavior which BLM was born to oppose.

Thanks for the free cringe tho.

[Esalia]

It speaks volumes that Trump is not even trying to calm the situation.

Please he did the best he could.

He tweeted that they should stop.

He hasn't tweeted that they should stop what they're doing, just that they be peaceful about it.

Which is okay and all, but a) he could tell them to stop entirely not just be peaceful, and b) he could've not falsely contested the election and whip his base up and feed them lies to a point where this happens.

He did not do the best he could, assuming you are being serious and not sarcastic about this.

[The Alma Mater]

Trump is promising to pardon them all.

Stop it now. This is not even remotely funny

He probably will though. His base is ecstatic.

[Kexholm Karelia]

There’s no way to defend these people they’re as bad as antifa and are hurting the conservative movement now

They are exponentially worse than antifa and they've always been worse than antifa. You were on the wrong side all along. Happy reaping.

The usual double standard, no surprise. You seem to only condemn violence when it’s the opposition

I don’t believe there is a right and wrong side of history because our perception of history changes with the times

[Torisakia]

What in the actual fuck is going on

A armed insurrection and coup attempt

Although would it really be a coup if they're attempting to keep the existing government in place rather than remove it? Unless the definition of a coup d'etat has changed.

[San Lumen]

Stop it now. This is not even remotely funny

And the party needs to tell them to go to hell.

[Esalia]

There's a big difference between antifa and this.

I don't recall a time antifa literally broke into the capitol in an attempt to stop a legitimate democratic process.

Would have made more sense to organize on the 20th.

The USSS has SUVs with minguns and rocket launchers. Pretty sure they could deal with them if they got green lit.

[Kowani]

DC national guard has been activated

Chist.

Should canada just come in and annex the US now?
