Then why is it taking almost 4 fucking days for an election to be called that normally takes around 32 hours? Dem mean Republicunts? "Come on, man!"

If it's hopeless why don't you die in a blaze of glory instead of moping around? You need to understand that if you don't fight life will become unbearable for you. It might not happen tomorrow, but it will happen within the next four years. Everything you currently use to cope will become more pozzed. Your job will be taken from you. Your lack of resistance will just make it easy for them to bully you for being some white devil who deserves to die. There is nothing to look forward to. Not even food. The Paris deal will eliminate beef and chicken. Your lunch will be bugs.

You are already demoralized and defeated. You're already called a racist. If you do nothing your family will suffer if they still exist. If you have no family then there is nothing to concern yourself with. If we lose we'll lose and die. If we win we'll finally have a chance at a future and happiness. If you do nothing you will be miserable and wishing for death before it is done.

Saw your post history and you said you're done with politics and are movement forward. If you aren't even on the same side anymore, what's the point of suggesting shit like that? Don't be this way. That man you're talking to deserves to be alive for that future.

Then let me forcefeed you a different pill.

The right... is also silent. This isn't a bad thing.

The right and left both are waiting, waiting to see if the fix sticks. Yet, spontaneous demonstrations in Michigan and Arizona, an almost complete and total lockdown on Detroit and Phoenix. The government of Georgia suddenly taking an express interest in the election.

You know that whole "They forgot to hit upload". That's finalizing the totals. The GOP ACTED, they forced them to submit so we'd have the totals.

The GOP isn't doing nothing, its just being quiet and doing what it can before the shit hits the fan.

One thing to be aware of

In the bubble, when Bush V Gore was called, there were some lawyers t hat stormed into a recount area or something.

Even 15 years later they were still talking about the "evil conservative thugs bursting in and forcing the vote to stop."

I fully expect Antifa to set fire to buildings if a recount happens.

To the left, this is fair game, because the GOP "already did it."

The mentality of the left and right can be illustrated by coffee franchises. The right drinks at Dunkin doughnuts. Plain coffee and unfancy baked goods. No flavor. Thats how it was for years. Liberals invent Starbucks. Now conservatives drink at Starbucks.

The left seeks to change things where the right accepts things as they are. They dont exert will on anything. The left does

Where can I read about these spontaenous demonstrations in MI? I know of the Phoenix one, but not in Michigan.

While I PERSONALLY believe that the President should be able to petition the Supreme Court directly in order to resolve this exact kind of issue immediately, the actual consensus is that you must go through lower courts first. Which creates yet more stalling.

SCOTUS has the ability to decide what cases to hear directly and given the seriousness, importance and time constraints I'm sure they will if asked.

I think also all the justices that went through the meat grinder thanks to Democrats, which coincidentally are all the conservative justices, would jump at a chance to slap them down. Thomas can't have forgotten Biden's repeated racist characterization of him as a sex crazed negro sprinkling his pubes on soda cans.

Revenge is a dish best served cold they say.

I don't really know. I say I'm done but I keep pulling myself in. I'm crazy like that. I will keep moving forward, but I'm going to be doing everything I can from now on to undermine and destroy this system. I cannot do this alone. I need friends and whatnot. I don't expect to find that here, but if nothing else I want people to know hope is not dead and we still have a reason to fight.

Nothing I said in that post is wrong or fear mongering. It is simple fact of our reality. Once people accept this we can move forward. Until then any hope of this revolution shit is just cope. You have to stir up the hornets nest. You have to get people motivated.

As is often the case, the source of your frustration is confusion and unmet expectation.
You expect the Republican party to be right wing because the Democratic party is left wing. This is not the case. America has a left wing paternalist party and a centrist liberal party.
"The right" isn't doing anything. It doesn't exist.

In all serious though many ideolouges on the left are dumb as pigshit and can easily be manipulated into believing in ridiculous causes. Just got to use that stupidity to your advantage if you aren't a lazy, comfortable fuck like me.

I agree, even if I differ on the methods.

I'm curious. In terms of policy, what do you want out of your country?
 
Appreciate the responses. One more post before I go back to lurking. The right (or 'anyone who doesn't want lawlessness) needs to do 2 things. First, get better at convincing the zoomer crowd. Guess what, they turned out big for Biden. Not more conservative than the millennials, they are even worse. Rumors of the right shift among zoomers were greatly exaggerated. And yes, they often have low turnout, but this trend will only get worse unless the right gets way better at the persuasion game. How that works I don't know, but I do know that blowing off people like Nick Fuentes just because he isn't 'perfect' is not a good strategy, as he is helping the persuasion game for the right. They exiled him off of twitch AND YOUTUBE and his audience keeps getting bigger. Look at Hassan, dude has 10s of thousands of viewers on twitch and is a total clown, yet he is winning at the persuasion game on a certain segment of the populace. Don't have to be perfect, just good enough to make a difference.

Second, and kind of a whitepill as my last post, people need to stop complaining about how bad candidates are and actually run. If you can speak clearly and have a good force of personality then you are better than the vast majority of people running. Cawthorn won his seat (solid red district but still) and will be the youngest member of congress ever, because he decided to actually fucking run. If more people did that instead of just grilling we wouldn't be here.
