I'm only joking. I just like the idea of the fiscally liberal/socially conservative meaning Hitler. Mind you I do think you can make a case that it's true.

Interesting if I google fiscally liberal/socially conservative there are other non-meme versions of it. One of the weird things about the people who voted Conservative in Blue Wall constituencies that flipped from Labour to Conservative is that it describes them. Same with Trump's rust belt supporters. Of course in the UK/US case, those people are also keen on free speech and on using democratic controls to reign in elites. They're also very anti forever wars but they're not averse to the government intervening in the economy in a variety of ways. So you've got a version of fiscally liberal/social conservative which is democratically viable. So democratically viable that the elites needed to steal an election when a media monopoly wasn't enough to make people reject it at the ballot box. Matthew Goodwin describes this sort of ideology as 'National Populism' and it produced both Trump and Brexit.

Also, the Hitler version of fiscally liberal/socially conservative seemed doomed from the start, to be honest. There's no way he would have been able to conquer an empire large enough not to be destroyed by naval powers cutting off its supplies.

That's not to say that the National Populist version is doomed, even if the current situation in the US seems like a serious setback in the short term

I don't think it will present them much of a problem. Remember when Obama got in and the anti-war movement just stopped getting any coverage by the media. People like Cindy Shehan just stopped getting interviewed and the demonstrations they organized stopped getting covered. E.g.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cindy_Sheehan#Political_activism

I don't remember any of those getting any coverage at all and certainly, nothing like the blanket coverage her protests got when Bush was POTUS.

I keep trying not to log in and spend time here. Got better things to do. I keep doing it cause:

1. The ignore feature doesnt work when logged out. I cant lurk cause then I have to read shit by the local fuck heads. Log in then...

2. Get people talking about ideas for situation. In the riot thread people were freaking the fuck out. Whoa is me!

3. Try to get people be realistically optimistic. The dooming gets on my nerves. The calls for violence dont help either.

And finally....

4. In hopes to get wonderful responses like you just posted by awesome people like you. I know many here are a hell lot smarter then me and alot of times you say the most interesting stuff. That stuff makes my day better when I read it. Thank you.

America has plenty of oil. Conflicts in the middle east to secure oil is not for the US, but for it's allies in Europe and Asia. That's why it's the globalists crying each time the conflicts descelate

Let China do it then. They seem to have no problem doing it in their North Western province and that province is close to Afghanistan.

Thats basically admitting "yeah we cheated but please don't do something because bad things might happen".

Texas Sues Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin at Supreme Court over Election Rules

Texas filed a lawsuit directly with the U.S. Supreme Court before midnight on Monday challenging election results in four other states.

www.breitbart.com

"The State of Texas filed a lawsuit directly with the U.S. Supreme Court shortly before midnight on Monday challenging the election procedures in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin on the grounds that they violate the Constitution.

Texas argues that these states violated the Electors Clause of the Constitution because they made changes to voting rules and procedures through the courts or through executive actions, but not through the state legislatures. Additionally, Texas argues that there were differences in voting rules and procedures in different counties within the states, violating the Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause. Finally, Texas argues that there were “voting irregularities” in these states as a result of the above.

Texas is asking the Supreme Court to order the states to allow their legislatures to appoint their electors. The lawsuit says:


Texas approached the Supreme Court directly because Article III provides that it is the court of first impression on subjects where it has original jurisdiction, such as disputes between two or more states."

Hail Mary play, but at least Texas will not go gentle into that good night.

This is the same constitutional argument that most people who have talked about it have said is the strongest play. It's interesting to see an entire state call out the other states, but it makes sense.

I wonder what grounds there are for this to be heard. This is looking like a real slapfight. I also wonder if this will be the state's last stand before California and Austin consumes the rest of the state.

The only reason why Epstein's death was called into question by even the normies is because of how plain absurd a lot of the assumptions were. He was under suicide watch with no real means of suicide beyond banging his head on the wall until he got a hemorrhage in his brain. Saying he just hung himself reeked of a coverup and even normal people and Woke Leftists saw the obvious bullshit for what it was.

How much you wanna bet that Ghislaine Maxwell hasn't been touched because there's an assumption she has something on Trump?

I want to say Based, but this hypothetically gives California precedent to start suing dinky Red states for not electing Democrats like their coastal betters.

They're actually arguing that everything is fine constitutionally. I don't accept their argument and agree that a combination of denying standing before an election and laches afterward is a way for the state to violate the constitution with impunity but they're not claiming that. Instead, they've got a complicated and borderline incomprehensible argument that there's nothing to see here.

I hope the SCOTUS takes the case and tells them to fuck off frankly because of the laches/standing Catch-22 (archive) they're trying to pull.

I think no matter what happens this election will put the cat among the pigeons. Whether that is a good thing or a bad thing is not something we know now and we won't know for a very long time.

Every victory contains the seeds of future defeats. And vice versa.

You can see that now if you look back at 2016 with the right kind of eyes. Trump won. The left descended into TDS. The media encouraged it. And it was that same TDS that caused them to be so desperate that, in 2020 when Trump looked like he was winning, they kicked out observers on the grounds that counting had stopped, stuffed ballots and the media went into full Shut It Down mode on anyone who complained.

PA’s argument seems to have not been made with the TX lawsuit in mind, which is credit to TX being quiet until the last second. Standing back PA being utter failures bolsters TXs argument the states who played by the rules are getting shit on, fix this.

Someone sent me this graph. M1 is basically the amount of money in circulation. What is striking is how rapidly M1 increased during the COVID compared to at any time since the 1970s. The implication is that this is going to create some serious inflation. How do governments deal with that? Well, they increase interest rates. The problem is that Federal debt is also at all-time high. Of course, the government could just suspend paying interest on that, but that is a sovereign default.

I think at best we're heading into stagflation. This sort of thing makes me think @DeadFish might be right that there's going to be some sort of dramatic collapse of the current system. Certainly, that's what the Great Reset people seem to think. I also agree with DeadFish that, bizarrely, a collapse might be better than authoritarian rule regardless of whether my preferred side comes out on top.

Iranian oil reserves is a funny way to spell Greater Israel and complete Middle Eastern destabilization

The problem with greater Israel as a concept is that Israel has been dealing with an insurgent indigenous population for the past 70 years and it's the size of what, Delaware? You make it the size of Brazil, and now you've got 96% of your land occupied by now very hostile forces, a lot of which is borderline uninhabitable desert. And you can't manifest destiny them like America did to the Indians - the technological gap just isn't there in the same way, and the white settlers could draw from all of Europe to bolster their numbers.

Arabs (and Persians, Kurds, Yazidi, Turks, and every other ethnic group) can manufacture arms well enough to make an occupation difficult, especially if they have international backing (which the Indians did not have). I talked with one veteran who said they had IEDs fueled by the sugar in hot chocolate packets. The middle east has been a hotbed of modern warfare for decades. They know how to do guerrilla warfare.

There also aren't enough Jews around to handle an occupation like that. Even with gentile backing, there simply aren't. Plus, whites simply fucked the red out of a lot of indians; it's the reason most Americans have 1/32 native blood. Hell, the Spanish were such virile studs that they created a new race out of the natives - Latino. Jews can't do that, because of their breeding rules.

Israel would also have to sacrifice any progress they have in international relationships with their neighbors. Things are tense but functional between the countries, and there's a real chance of longterm stability with some of the peace deals that are being worked on. Israelis also aren't a monolith - secular reformed globohomo party bois with lesbian rabbis preforming abortions don't have the same goals as hasidic talmudic fundamentalists who think certain haircuts are of the devil.

Don't get me wrong, Israel has way too much influence in America and Jews have a major problem with nepotism and xenophobia toward the goy, but a openly occupational world domination plan isn't in the cards. American warmongering is an in-house problem.

I've got some Texan friends and they all seem to think that Texas should just leave the union. So it's nice of Texas to make one last attempt to fix it before just throwing in the towel and putting up border posts.

That being said this stuff is all beyond my capacity to decide what the right decision is and if Texas decides to go full TEXIT I suppose I'd have to respect that decision. After all, as my buddies pointed out, they respected the UK's decision to leave the EU.

I would prefer if the US stayed united though. There are geopolitical implications of a breakup of the USA - mainly China and Russia deciding to conquer their neighbors - that I really don't look forward to.

But I'm not a US citizen so I don't in the end get a say. If I were a US citizen I'd be very averse to listening to advice from foreigners much like the Taiwanese didn't appreciate me giving them advice on how to deal with China.

The audacity of these faggots, after undermining the public trust with blatant fraud, to argue that they couldn't be held accountable because it might harm the public trust. To the contrary, the only hope of restoring any trust is for the fraud to be exposed and the people behind it punished. Cheaters can not be allowed to prosper, after all.
