@neo_ I am not so certain of this being the outcome. Not because of any disagreement with the points you have made, but the fact that there are major political implications to an acquittal. If he does get acquitted, there will certainly be riots. The jury is another factor that I do not know about for sure, as people are easily able to be lead to believe in a conclusion based on emotional appeals. I am not going to think the outcome will be certain in either direction because of these factors.
@houseoftolstoy not a pipefitter, but still a skilled tradesman. My local was giving out Biden stickers all through last year, because of course the morons in charge think the Democrat Party is still the party of JFK.
I was pleasantly surprised that most members said "no thanks".
@TiberiusBravo87 Now this is rich. There was a very strong desire for the left to find the regret filled Trump voters, but this has far more substance than anything they had. I recall the union for pipe fitters having an endorsement of Biden and later showing disapproval for the canceling of the Keystone XL pipeline. Seeing more examples is just hilarious. I bet that the woman who asked for student loan forgiveness only to be told no by Joe Biden is also not feeling so great about "ridin' with Biden."
On the other hand, someone on Reddit create a trumpgret sub under the premise that there would be a huge amount of regretful Trump voters. That sub was and is a pretty pathetic site. Hell, so many subs were created out of the explicit hatred of Trump. And they won't stop hating him until they die. And they probably will still hold on to that anger.
Read More@neo_ Correct use of "literally" is quite nice with an abundance if its misuse. Also, not feeling sorry for them.
@houseoftolstoy Mike Lindell is the racist that we need, but not the one that we deserve. When things start getting hot soon then you're going to really wish it was still all fun and padding. Notice in this photo what an uncle tom happy nigger that he is. He thinks that he is participating in a joyful expression. He has been reduced to such a lowly ignorance due to systemic direct hit micro-aggressions. This exercise merely disguises the simulation of slavery. Of course we know this and approve of it. I'm not saying that the happy nigger shouldn't be beat down with pillows until the day that it can be proper whips again, so don't get me wrong. It's just that sometimes we lose track of how we're benefiting from racism and if we'd like to maintain our edge then this needs to be remedied through education.

@arakouzo This is indeed the biggest flaw of the ideal of equality. Too many people are resentful and envious of others who have more. It takes an exceptional person to not feel envy at those who have more, be it money, status, looks, intelligence, or talent. The problem with money is that unlike the other attributes, it is something that can be redistributed by force. Everything else would require Harrison Bergeron style enforcement. So we have those who have less money see those with more and not only do they feel resentment, but also call to action to redistribute wealth.
Maybe I am exceptional by my own standard, but I have learned to be happy with my financial standings. I would not be considered rich in a first world country, but in historical and global standards, I am quite well off. I do not mind millionaires and billionaires having more wealth than me, provided they have done so ethically. The problem is when commies define anyone who is rich as being unethical.
Read More@redpillschool Mike Lindell is far past the point of dipping his toes in the issue of election fraud, as he has already jumped in that pool. It seems like quite the farce that a pillow salesman is one of the few men standing in defiance of our corrupt system, but alas we cannot choose our champions.
Not hating on the guy, he has done more than most anyone, but people are too stupid to look past the man and see the information he is presenting. No, our society wants "the experts" to tell us what to think, and have "the experts" picked by the establishment media.
@houseoftolstoy If Trump ever started a Patriot Party there would be infiltrators in the running for various small elections. They would do like his Supreme Court picks, act the part to gain confidence then betray him at a critical moment. The Republican party is riddled with these infiltrators. They were also the main reason the NRA imploded, lots of liberal infiltrators took their time to get through the frankly stupid voting process into various positions of power then abused it so blatantly that lots of NRA members were just as disgusted with the organization as the anti-gun groups trying to shut them down.
@jpwilk What a surprise. A leftist group gets donations from leftists. And I call the Lincoln Project a leftist group because their videos (such as this one: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4togbppyqqm) have only leftist talking points. As in, they sound like they have no idea how anyone on the right talks or thinks. Which perfectly conforms with what this study (https://trp.red/t/b8r) found about how the right and center understand other perspectives while the left does not understand the how those outside of their political alignment think.
All that said, I don't think the Lincoln Project had a real impact on the election, as their audience (the American left) were already going to agree with their talking points and vote for Democrats/against Republicans. What we should be watchful for are those who can do a better job chameleoning as right wingers, as any money from the right that goes to such groups or individuals is spending their money counterproductively.
