HOLY FUCK! Are these people even fucking functional?!
They are completely and utterly dependent on the state. And, they're also the emotional and mental maturity level of 8 year olds. So they want to be in charge of the state, which they are dependent on. Everything else is just fluffery.
They are adult toddlers throwing a tantrum. They're not emotionally or mentally mature enough to realize that instead of being in charge of the state that they are dependent on, they could take charge of and responsibility for their own lives -- if they were, they'd be moderate lefties or conservatives. So no, they're not functional. But at the same time, they will never see any repercussions for this, so why not throw a goddamned tantrum?
What we have to do is figure out where the malfunction in the system is which is creating these broken adult-children. The education system is broken. Social media's software-enforced epistemic closure (hugboxes) is part of it. Various marxist-infested degrees such as the greivence studies are part of it. The media being controlled by people encouraging these idiots is part of it. It's all designed to make ignorant man-children who feel life owes them something and that the reason they haven't is because of [INSERT CHANGE HERE] which [INSERT POLITICAL ENEMY HERE] is preventing from happening.
But know this: The Marxists have their literal army of useful idiots in America. They're closer now to destroying the west than they've been since the height of the USSR. There is absolutely no way this situation changes without a huge, ungodly bad, political or street fight.
A fight our political system seems engineered (or, re-engineered) to make impossible to have.
But who knows? Declaring Antifa a terrorist organization gives Trump some pretty hefty weapons. Yes, they'll sue the shit out of him to try and stop him, and a random judge from Hawaii will probably say he can't do it because it's unsporting to stop the communist uprising. But if he uses the mandate to go after Antifa to also do a purge of Marxists and Neo-Marxists in the US?
