I live around men with huge arsenals they collected to fight tyranny.

Turns out “tyranny” is being asked wear a mask or kids having access to books or women having access to healthcare or gay folks getting married…

Another one.

It’s only been ONE DAY and I’m already tired of hearing white people explain why a few hundred armed, trained killers might make the public feel safer.

You know which “public” they’re talking about.

Gonna be a long week.

I’ve been married to my husband for 17 years this past August 2nd. Kim Davis has been through 3 marriages.

Get fucked you miserable hobgoblin.

Every activated Guardsman has a family, a job, school, or something that they are leaving to do their duty.

It’s one thing when it’s a war… or a real mass civil disturbance, which those only last a few days.

But to rip these people from their lives for a show… is awful.

What are they teaching in schools these days. Are they still saying that the government has three branches and all that

I think "goes up" meant to the bosses.

American corporations are on pace to spend $1.1 trillion on stock buybacks in 2025, an all-time high.

Buybacks don't create more jobs, increase wages, or grow the economy — but they do help juice CEO pay that's often tied to stock performance.

Nothing trickles down to workers.

Wanted to know what year Nevada became a state.

Google fucking nailed it:

GOP: the second amendment protects us from tyranny

Also GOP: YAY! Federal troops are being sent to control DC!

GOP: we support the free market!

Also GOP: it’s fine that NVIDIA and AMD are being illegally forced to pay 15% to the government to sell their products in China.

"The sudden disaster that requires the end of checks and balances, the dissolution of opposition parties, the suspension of freedom of expression, the right to a fair trial, and so on, is the oldest trick in the Hitlerian book. Do not fall for it."

Two things can be true:

1) The President has legal authority over the D.C. police and the D.C. National Guard that he doesn't have *anywhere else* in the country; &

2) Even if this doesn't set a legal precedent, it sets an ominous *political* precedent for pretextually overriding local government.

That a weird fucking comparison point...

"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."

Just saw someone call the military occupation of DC a distraction, and that’s it, the it’s a distraction people have lost it. We should wait until the bulldozer is running over your house and all chime in with “isn’t there something else we should be talking about”

If you know DC you understand how tremendously goofy this is

A little math about that prison camp in Florida. $450 million per year for 3,000 people is $150,000/person per year. The cost for one person receiving SNAP for one year is $2256, yet they're telling us that's too expensive. threads.com/@unapologeticallyzae
