America Year Zero

[Mandelbrot Slapper]

Germany's signalling they'll boycott the World Cup. Scandinavians have started to recall that they're Vikings & talking about the regional alliance they'll form when the North Atlantic Terrorist Organisation crumbles. Today the Mango Madman announced he's closing the Kennedy Center (Sorry the Trump/Kennedy Center). Bibles are replacing biology textbooks again in public schools way down south in Dixie. Libraries are being defunded to the degree that they've outstripped fucking Goebbels in the book burning stakes 11 people are confirmed to have been summarily executed in Main Street USA & they admit to 40 detainees being "missing" in the system. Not deported, not released & no longer in custody. 
Thus far only between 5-8% of the people who have been detained by ICE have any kind of a criminal record.

Does anyone still believe you're voting your way out of this shit show in the Midterms when Dems in the House have just voted again to continue ICE funding?



I bet that Second Amendment is looking a lot shinier now. This cunt's gonna make PolPot seem like an eccentric high school teacher who let his hobby farm got a bit out of hand.

I'll bet a lot of Second Amendment worshiping gun fondlers are wondering what Saint Charlie of the Mass School Shootings would do, besides trying to make a buck off of the situation, since the Turd Reich has publicly gone less that 100% uncompromising about their sacred gun rights. Now, I know the gun fondlers will, of course, spend even more of their money on more guns and more ammo. But, the poor little guys have to be feeling uneasy right now.

The biggest threats you should be paying attention to are not book bans, the Epstein files, or ICE intimidation tactics.

In November, a video circulated reminding members of the armed services that they must not follow illegal orders, and that they are legally obligated to refuse them under long-established precedent.

Trump responded with a meltdown. He called for hangings, branded them traitors, and demanded imprisonment.

The armed services are the government's license to enforce authority. They are not his. They are yours. They belong to the people.

Showing outrage at a military refusing the whims of a ruler, and I mean "dictator" in the textbook sense of unchecked authority, signals an intent to use that force outside the law and against the people themselves.

That is a direct challenge to the presidency as a representative office. It is the language of a ruler, not an elected servant. Your own Caesar moment.

He can pull other levers of government and flood the field with distractions, but if the authority of the people is challenged this way again, it must be shut down immediately and without ambiguity. This is not acceptable.

Nope.  We're fucked.

There is nothing wrong right now that can't be fixed with shipping containers.  My patented two step process.

But the problem is that America isn't serious about having a good time.

There needs to be a lot more of this.

In Nazi Germany the two strongest forces of resistance to the Brownshirts were the jazz fans. Jazz was one of the first things the one balled arsehole banned as it was black music. (Echoes of this in the Bad Bunny fiasco at the Super bowl) Kids took wind up gramophones to parks & beaches to dance in overt acts of public rebellion. They fought running battles with Hitler Youth & SA units. Often utilising those gramophones as weapons.

Florida kids have taken up the cudgel. Don't be like the German parents were & let them stand alone against tyranny.

You said two, and then only named one, who other than the Jazzy Jermans?

Oh yeah sorry. Was quite stoned.
.
The Second was The White Rose Resistance. Students at a Munich University, in the heart of the Nazi home ground. Hans & Sophie Scholl were siblings & they printed an illicit paper which they distributed in the wee hours of the morning after printing it in the University print shop after everyone else had left. They lambasted Mein Kampf from a literary as well as ideological perspective. They published battle casualty statistics from British & Russian sources. Reported on U-boat & battleship sinkings. Talked of concentration camps.

They were guillotined in 1943. Hans' last words were
"Es lebe die Freiheit!"  (Long live freedom)

When they died Hans was 22 & Sophie had just turned 20. 16 other members were executed over the next three months & 13 more sentenced to between 6 months & 10 years in prison.

I'm reminded of an old NY Anarchist collective motto. "Flower power won't fight fascist power. All you need is dynamite"
