Nick Jr. Face posted:Was or wasn't? I was just making a joke about being one of the East coast elitist liberals that the people who voted Boebert in hate to see move to the state precisely because of that shift. We need to convince the next generation to move to some other place to keep pushing other states this direction. Think we can convince twenty-somethings to live in, like, Bozeman?

Nick Jr. Face posted:Anyways, Boebert is a Florida native who moved to Aurora with her family when she was in her teens. The district she represents is populated with chuds. Oh yeah totally it’s almost always blue for national elections and initiatives but didn’t they have a GOP gov recently? And senators? Most of the libertarian stuff is from young dudes in the mountain towns. Public service and hospitality types. Admittedly I had narrow exposure limited to those types bc of my friends and fam living out there so it may not be representative. But the streak was strong.

Their last republican governor was Bill Owens who lost in the Obama wave. Republican Corey Gardner just lost reelection. He was a one term nothing of a politician. They also had Ben "Nighthorse" Campbell, a native american jewelry maker and collegiate judo participant. Just looking it up real fast, his politics were all over the place, and he switched parties once. He's a total chud now though. So yeah, with the exception of little pockets of rear end, Colorado is gone for the republicans. And if anyone gets expulsed, boebert will be one of them.

Shinji2015 posted:On one hand, I absolutely don't believe that any Congressperson should be carrying guns into chambers, and that a lot of this is performative bullshit by 2A nutcases, but on the other, I wonder how many started carrying after Wednesday. AOC said that she thought she was going to die, and I'm sure she was far from the only one: Fair. One of the twitter lawyers has been tweeting ads from Dan Crenshaw and the Marjorie Q lady, and it is pretty shocking how much military/war imagery they use. Specifically how much they point guns then show pictures of the squad. Intruder posted:um This whole thing seems like something that will warrant a special investigation that gets politicized for the next two years.

She's either really, really dumb or had to know the potential result of what she was doing but I doubt there'll be any consequences just like there weren't any consequences for her refusing to let the capitol police look in her bag or the various other republicans who refused to comply with being wanded or even walking through the metal detector

Intruder posted:But but but unity and healing! I think it's a combo of her being dumb, and also not even thinking of the consequences. I think a lot of the rioters were in the same boat. These are people not used to facing consequences for any action they take. Now they're getting tossed in jail, fired, put on no fly lists, and all of a sudden reality is hitting them in the face. Sure there's some true believers out there, but I think a lot of other people got caught up by Trump's insane rhetoric and didn't spend a minute thinking "storming the capitol building is a really bad idea." Boebert probably still think she can't face consequences since she's in congress, and I'm really hoping that she does. Things will be a lot different for these people when Trump is out of office and the Democrats can start up huge investigations into the whole ordeal. Of all police agencies, I actually trust the FBI the most to actually track down everyone who was even minutely involved.

If the party would lock him out and he ran third party, it would absolutely destroy the republicans in the election probably including downballot. Which is why I'm afraid they'd just let him be the candidate and potentially win and we're right back where we were only he's going to be a lot angrier and dumber Intruder fucked around with this message at 16:22 on Jan 13, 2021 |

fartknocker posted:I never played the Division, is this a potentially good thing? They're very competently made open world cover shooters with absurd Clancy worlds that are straight out of a "let's storm the capital building" fever dream. Going to Star Wars is a massive step up in worldbuilding for them, but they're mostly good at making rifling rounds into dude's heads poking out of cover 50 yards away, which is very much not Star Wars.

I also expect Trump to try a blanket pardon and we get to find out how functional our government is if they will stop him from doing so.

like, I get the dystopian nature of having troops in the capital, but the manner in which the first photos were captured of it is hilariously accurate and I cannot count the amount of times I basically had to lay on the ground next to my poo poo and wrap my rifle sling around my wrist while I slept, even in training exercises.

Yeah, I really do think four years of Trump doing everything he can to keep people out of the country and talking about very good people on both sides had just cemented the idea that "this is are country, we will be hailed as heroes for doing these things!" into people's minds. Two bits of satire that are bouncing around in my mind about it are the tweet about these people learning why their ancestors wore hoods when doing these things, and people on the no fly list being outraged at being treated like brown people. Seeing the circled people in that capitol tour picture flashing the white power handsign really just cements the fact they see themselves as liberators who will be on the right side of history. e: So I'm not just saying tweets, here they are: https://twitter.com/TravisAllen02/status/1349152540768796680 https://twitter.com/Reductress/status/1348710295267631105 Blowjob Overtime fucked around with this message at 16:52 on Jan 13, 2021 |
