Or at least that's the only thing I can assume, because this comment came right from the middle of dozens of replies screaming for insurrection, and even Freep isn't that selectively blind, right?

I assume that Freeper means "If SCOTUS had taken the case, the left would be burning down cities, so that's why they denied hearing it."

CharlestheHammer posted:

I’m confused what exactly they think the constitution has to do with this

Basically the Texas case was based on the argument that Article II of the Constitution says that the choosing of electors is a power given to the state legislatures, and thus only the legislatures have the power to change election laws within a state, not the governor or courts. Thus, they deemed it to be a constitutional violation, which in their minds would give Texas standing as a state to say "They didn't follow the Constitution, which harms all of us that held our elections properly."

The funny part is even if their argument held water (which it obviously doesn't), Texas itself violated the Constitution because their governor extended early voting by one week.

States Rights are only operative when it involves maintaining the slave power or its descendants. The Fugitive Slave Law took a gigantic poo poo on states' rights even in the antebellum period. But they loved it down South!

I agree. The problem is twofold: third worlders flocking here, a natural constituency of the left and natives getting radicalized by communist revolutionaries in academia and the media. We’re steadily being drowned out by lunatics and morons.

State secession might be beyond your control, but individual secession certainly is. Patriots can stop clicking on enemy media and patronizing enemy establishments and services. Blue state patriots should pull up stakes for redder pastures if possible or at least become become a drain on their shithole state’s finances as much as possible.

If Biden is actually sworn in, then my guess is that rapture comes 4 years earlier than expected.

Where the Rapture is concerned, God's timing is set in concrete and only he knows the time, and History has been populated with much more severe and evil events than this election, no matter how much it hits home with us. Furthermore, I have always been of the mind to focus on the delivery of the Gospel over worrying about the Rapture as I have no control over that and no way to know when it is coming. Being a part of the process of saving men's souls seems to be the appropriate use of my time.

And yes, Prayer is the most important thing to pursue, but we are being irresponsible if we, as Christians, do not continue to pursue Liberty and Justice for all with all of the Tools left at our disposal by our Almighty Father.

B)Trump and his allies are lying about voter fraud, vote manipulation, vote malfeasance to keep Trump as President when he actually lost the election fair and square.

Encouraging people not to pay taxes is a felony. Just saying. You might want to be careful posting stuff like that.
There are perfectly legal ways to stop paying taxes. And their results are a lot less painful than the way that is termed a felony.

The challenge is to get enough people willing to make the necessary sacrifices. Most people live in chronic debt and can scarcely imagine anything more horrid than to be separated from their employment and default, and thereafter live on an income beneath the threshold ($12k earned income, I believe). And yes you can survive on $12k a year.

BTW, ballot stuffing and riots are felonies too. Anybody you know getting prosecuted?

Jenna is a 30-something year old joke that makes comments about someone having a “micro penis”. And Sidney? Beyond joke with all her “Kracken” and “Biblical” nonsense).

I’d LOVE to be proven wrong - eg: by Trump invoking the Insurrection Act (he won’t), but them’s the facts. Sucks to be so, but is what it is, also.

If we ever want to win again, we drat well better quit fooling ourselves with this type of idiotic nonsense and get our acts together.

You’re right, imo. We handle Earth, God handles the rest.

I’ve questioned my faith in that why is God allowing this to happen to my Country: the most free, most Christian, most humane, fairest Country in the entire world? Why would he allow this to happen to the “this is it/there’s no where else to escape to” country?

And I keep coming up blank.

I raised four Christian, responsible, educated, wonderful kids. And this is the Country they get to live in - a country that threw away our Constitution, the Republic.

The corruption in our government astounds me.

Trump, and his entire family, have paid too high a price for this Ungrateful, corrupt, God-forsaken nation already. They should shake the dust off their feet and leave this foul place to its fate. They owe it nothing and there is no salvaging anything of value here. Let it sink into the tar pits of history as an epic failure. This is the generation that sacrificed the greatness that was bequeathed us by those who went before. Not Trump’s fault. The people did this.

GOLLOCKS!
This wall of text from the main thread really struck me.

quote:

f this overthrow does go through our President and his family and everyone else including the ignorant ones that they brain washed into helping then will no longer be needed.

They will finally have what they think they want.

They will have all the money they need.They have all the Unfree press/media they need . They already have all law they need. They will have all the police agencies,the, FBI, The CIA, The Treasury agents, U.S.Marshall etc. ad nausea, all these come under the Executive Branch. they no longer will need any political parties or elections or politicians or voters.

Why waste billions getting them elected or bribing them afterwards and besides some one could use them against them as they did President Trump.

Adolf didn't and eliminated his.

These always end up with one mad man in the drivers seat .If you look around at the people/ places / money involved This one is going to end for the world government.We have had ample warning where our government was going as did all former world dominant nations.

World history and each nation's own history has shown them what happens to countries who refuse to learn from history.The only source of true history of man his world and their future together is the Bible.

As each nation quit using and believing in its teaching and it's Author they ceased being a world power. We quit in the sixties.

When He downsized the Soviet Union I told some of my work family as we listened to the radio and talked it at lunch I told them I thought we would be next if we didn't change our spiritual direction and return to Him.

I thought that as had the Soviets the U.S.would be weakened from superpower status so we could not interfere with Israel and that God was setting them up so they would end up being the dominant power in the Middle East after the GoG Magog war.

I still do think this what is happening based on my years of very heavy Bible study especially Eze.38 & 39 I am just a retired industrial mechanic no preacher, no prophet.

Pray very hard President Trump, his family and all those who support and protect them . even/especially after the election. He is the only president "we the people" have really elected in many years that stood his ground and probably is the last one the people of this country will ever vote for.

Yeah Thomas and Alito said for a while that they feel that the SC is required to take all cases that are disputes between states, that they don't have the right to dismiss it outright, but they were very clear that they would not grant any relief requested in the trial and would essentially just let Texas present its arguments before they made a 9-0 ruling against Texas.

I just can't imagine how exhausting it must be to think literally everyone is on the side of evil and against you. I know it's probably more mental illness than anything else, even the ones who realized they got caught up in a cult of personality are more "Trump can holler all he wants but the election was stolen and he can't do anything about it" rather than "Guess we need to accept we lost."

It's really not, and I wish the internet (not just here, I see it all over, especially lately), would stop using "mental illness" as shorthand for "bigoted, racist assholes who delight in their own ignorance". Being a terrible person, or believing extremely stupid poo poo, are not symptoms of being mentally ill.

Not to call you out in specific, I'm just seeing it absolutely everywhere the past two weeks.

I feel like it sort of is definitionally given that it seems to cause them extreme mental distress and also antisocial behaviour. It is a counterproductive thinking pattern that they incapable of escaping to the point that it is arguably pathological.

Whether or not you care about that or not is entirely another question though. It also doesn't mean that all mental illnesses are the same.

If there is a pathological behavior in the medical sense, it is not in their views, however reprehensible, but in how they express them, like a somewhat older right wing version of poster brain as we see here at times.

This, more or less. Side-stepping the whole internet diagnosis thing, saying someone is mentally ill in this way also isn't done out of any genuine concern, it's a means of dismissing folks who behave this way or believe these things by essentially saying "oh, they're just crazy", and it's almost always meant to be insulting. It ties their behaviors and their beliefs to being mentally ill, and even if they have an actual diagnosed condition, that's still lumping them together with hundreds of different disorders. All anyone tends to hear when someone says 'this stupid racist says stupid racist things in an unbelievably dumb way, they're mentally ill' is 'mentally ill = stupid racists'. I know this comes off as harping, but it does incredible damage to people who are actually mentally ill, from contributing to them refusing to get treatment, to being victimized, to being outright murdered.

It's the same problem with how everyone gets Very Concerned about mental illness whenever a mass shooting happens, when it's actually a rare thing for a mass shooter to have been diagnosed with a mental illness (and you can't just go 'well, they're obviously crazy', that's not how this works), but it associates being mentally ill with being violent and dangerous, which is already a massive stigma, and then it all gets forgotten about until the next mass murderer turns up.

“So much for prayers. God just call-screens.” is going to stick with me for a while, not going to lie. It’s just such a legitimately great, over the top grim, line. It’s genuinely pithy and evocative. I want it to be in some kind of bleak noir movie now.

There’s also the mental image on God looking down at his phone, and going “ehh”. It’s great.

Gems like that are why I read this thread.

I suppose that it is more that it reminds me a lot of my experience with depression, in that it does cause me to engage in transparently self destructive and also antisocial behaviour, and the reason it does that is because in a perverse way I do actually like that, because it is a form of self harm. I certainly get the feeling that a lot of the extreme far right people are behaving in a similar way. They know that it is bad for them, on some level, that it alienates them from others, but they are not capable of acting otherwise because they have too many unhealthy behavioural habits and they do not have the necessary perspective or support group to form better behaviours, in part because I think their response to the alienation is to further rationalise it (wouldn't want to associate with commies anyway) and they also inhabit spaces that will help them to do that which only entrenches the behaviour and leads to worse political views as they encounter more and more things to need to write off. The unhealthiness may not originate their views but I think that sustaining them in the world as it stands necessitates the practice of unhealthy behaviours.

But I haven't yet found that viewpoint to be an obstacle to feeling antipathy towards them. Regardless of why they are the way they are, what they are is still antithetical to my preferred way of being. The observation is fairly academic, it clearly cannot be allowed to excuse their politics and I also don't think it has much bearing on people who experience mental illness without having garbage politics. The two, I think, interact with each other but I don't think illness causes bad politics, though I do think the converse may be true to a degree, in that I think the behaviours they exhibit are necessitated by their alienation due to their political beliefs, and this in turn may lead to worse beliefs.

Though fundamentally I don't really see much point in trying to determine the degree of agency someone might possess regarding their views as a proxy for determining their acceptability as people anyway.

It’s great, strong contender for the thread title. It belongs in a Max Payne game.

The Donald has a thread looking for moderators, and it’s not funny in the way a lot of these posts are, but it’s kind of interesting if you’re anthropologically interested in right-wingers/chuds generally, because it’s about what they think the main issues with site are.

There’s a lot of stuff like “hey the anti-catholic sentiment isn’t cool”, followed by “go back to your pedophile rape church then!!”

On any other right-wing website I'd assume this attitude was from Southern evangelicals raised on Chick Tracts and thinly veiled pro-segregationist sermons, but it would not surprise me in the least if it was entirely because Biden is Catholic :v:
