Buddy not funny. Extra judicially executing your political opponents is the kinda thing trump would pull and we can't endorse or even approve of it. The state of America today keeps reminding me of the fall of the roman Republic and a fascist dying ain't gonna fix the problem, it'll just let someone more cunningly capable of such things into the seat trumps trying to fill and then sh*ts gonna turn fast. What we needs is wide reaching, institutional reform. I just don't know whose gonna push for it.
When the guy who is at the center of it all corrupted the system that's supposed to keep him in check you've lost a lot of options. Like the old saying goes, if civil unrest isn't effective the people don't stop being upset they just stop being civil.
I think you’ve missed the past 10 years - shit’s already totally fucked. It makes zero sense not to fight back against the tyrant of the minority. They should be well aware that they do not have a monopoly on violence.
Suggest you read up on the prisoner’s dilemma.
He’s not just a political opponent, he’s also an authoritarian and a fascist. The won’t be sad when he’s dead, the sooner the better.
You say this like the American right isn’t planning violence ANYWAY. You say this like the Christian Nationalists won’t be violent ANYWAY. Trump dying would change nothing about the course of this nation except one more fascist would be dead.
