Thats a bingo. The judicial system is no longer legitimate. They have authority by point of fact they have men with guns to enforce their rulings, but they are rapidly losing the support of the public, on all sides. In terms of accelerating social instability, this is a plus.


Someone in the capitol police or secret service knows who opened those doors. The relevant authorities should be putting the proverbial thumbscrews to everyone present that day, but won't, because the federal government has lost the ability to operate cohesively, let alone lost legitimacy.

I like to bury the lead to annoy the shithead glowies.


It makes no difference whether men or sheep, or mice, or what they think of their leadership. It is only what it motivates them to do.

No one should be so complacent to assume because the public which hasn't reacted, won't react eventually.

That's why it's a nation of cowards

While you are not wrong, most people are gullible.

This is just a variation of victim blaming. Be better.

If we have a secret police system intent on provoking, coralling, and entrapping people, or worse, putting them through lawfare for charges that amount to literally nothing except punishment for beliefs, then it reduces to the heckler's veto of citizen's rights (which are ultimately contingent on how much the public is willing to put up with before resorting to non-political means like strikes, boycotts, protest, and the last and most detestable option, force).

Mostly its a union of public-welfare corporations run by harvardites and yale members, NGOs, pensioned public union lackies, and sundry other subhuman cretins. The middle class is a hair shy of revolting against the upper class, because the value has been sucked out of the u.s. dollar and the only way for class differences to be expressed is no longer through financial status, but power differntial. This manifests in things like the J6 abuses. "we locked you up without trial because you're a stupid flyover bumpkin and we're better than you, have better careers, better more stable pay, and outrank you in decision making" is the attitude.

Theres joy in it for them. Which is not to say this situation is much different from any other period in history, but it is more similar to some periods than others, like the french revolution and the thermidor.

The control mechanisms are more thorough, and the means of quelling public dissatisfaction more numerous and effective than before, but I don't think that means the current state of things can be maintained forever.
