Ironically Trump's administration will probably do more to infringe on gun rights and confiscate more weapons than any liberal president ever has.

But he'll only target minorities, so it'll be ok in the eyes of supposed 2nd Amendment supporters.

Yeah, the idea the Dems were pushing of people on the no fly list not being able to buy guns will likely get revived and coincide with lots of People of Color being added to that list.

Reminder: Steve Bannon is a accelerationist and he is an advisor to Donald Trump who in a few months with become the most powerful person politically on Earth.

To be fair he's a realistic accelerationist in that he thinks the destruction of civil society will lead to racial unrest instead of the ones around here who think that it will lead to productive socialist institutions.

Tim Ryan is unambiguously to the right of Pelosi. Have you heard of him before this week? We do not want Tim Ryan.

On NPR he sounded like Trump-lite saying how he would work to bring back "real jobs" for people he represents in Ohio. Then the reporter asked him that those kinds of manual jobs aren't coming back and that his constituents will probably have to be retrained and need to learn to use computers. Tim Ryan said there will still lots of jobs that did so there!

That's not what they believe though. Steve Bannon believes in Accelerationism because it will lead to a Eurocentric White Only Nation. Liberal Accelerationist belief it will lead to FULL COMMUNISM NOW.


A realistic accelerationist doesn't exist because anyone with a modicum of intelligence looks at accelerationism and says " That is bad , we should not do that".
