Does anyone actually care that we’re in the middle of an ongoing coup attempt?

Listen to the message, not the messenger.


Id be killing a lot of extreme right wingers and I have been preaching that to everybody I know for the last 2 years. Every man and woman in my family has multiple guns, during Covid everybody took those extra funds and bought more guns.

I'm not at all worried about anybody I associate with, and most of my family is in the burbs surrounded by white people.

It's the people who don't pay attention to this shyt that I worry about. Some people don't watch the news AT ALL, I'm worried about these people. Imagine not knowing a coup had just been ran on the government and Trump is megaphoning his followers to take over whole counties and capitals, and you are sitting in the crib watching Netflix :snoop:.

U seriously asking this shyt? Cacs didnt want black folks to have any rights which includes voting. I mean did i really have to explain this to u?

So, rather than use the rights they 'allowed' us to have, we're supposed to NOT use/care about them so they can take them away one by one?

Man, use your head.

Use the rights you have, NOW, to get more later.
Its a right that does not effect me nor anyone else black unless u rich.

Utter nonsense. Segregation was FEDERALLY SANCTIONED prior to the Act. The school you attended, the neighborhood you grew up in, the job you hold, etc., were ALL due to the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

It seems you don't feel that Black people benefitted in any way, but history shows just how misguided and wrong your opinion is.....

:dead:

Its so easy to visualize this because I know so many people like this. There are people out here who have no fukking clue whats going on. And even if they are somewhat cognizant they lack the critical thinking skills to understand.

Decades of deliberate miseducation of the American populace has left so many of us at a disadvantage. Too many people are stupid, misinformed and just don't care enough for this democracy to function.

While I applaud you being strapped up and I urge other folks to do it responsibly, the problem with this logic is, if we escalate to full blown civil disobedience and a possible civil war is; supply chains break down, civil services break down, the ability to effectively and timely communicate with people breaks down. You'll be able to defend your home, block, neighborhood for a few days, maybe a month...

But then the power goes out, the water stops running, your canned food supply runs out, and then those better trained, better organized, better coordinated militias start hitting the block and then what you going to do? We already know, they all in law enforcement and the military, which mean they already got the keys to all those armored personnel vehicles. When they run out of supplies and shyt the same time you do, what you gonna do?

I'm not saying this to disparage you, I'm saying this because nobody should be saying let this country fall or burn. It's not going to be pretty. I'm legit worried and keep tabs on this shyt often. It's a fragile system that's literally based entirely on perception and confidence.

I said it earlier in the thread take a look at Bosnian War in the 90's for what would happen. Listen to Chris Hedges, he has the best takes period on all of this imo.

Yea I'm completely against a civil war, 100%, but it's not anybody on our side saying or hinting at wanting a civil war in any way, shape, or form. Like I was saying earlier I move around the burbs just as much as the hood and damn near all my family is in the burbs up here, but our burbs are literally flooded with black people. There are lost of black home owners in white neighborhoods, but all the apartment buildings are 80% blacks and minorities in Detroit out skirts, and up here the white/black dynamic is extremely close, racism ain't super hardcore here for that reason.


Far right wing people here would literally be slaughtered, in days. There is no possibility that anywhere within a 20 mile radius of Detroit would be taken over by far right thinking people. They wouldn't stand a chance up here :yeshrug:.

That's exactly my point. We aren't in the same circumstances as our parents/grandparents BECAUSE of the Act.​

Exactly. So wtf do u think we have to gain by following todays politics? Nothing. If we were still in their situation then u have a point. But we arent. Whatever issues we have, politics from the whitehouse are not gonna fix them. How can they fix police brutality,racism, and force poverty?

They cant and they wont.


So again, what has any president done for you in your life time? None of yall can answer this

Tbis aint the place for political discourse too many idiots.

I wouldn't say idiots, but politics is too confusing and too corrupt. And the minute you go against the grain, you a c00n or cac.

I'm tired of all this shyt, I'm a firm believer thats its every man for himself

Vote them out just like Trump and replace them with those more amenable to what we want. Saying nothing only lets them know they can do whatever they want and we'll be 'quiet little n1ggers who know their place'.​
