“'We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless—if the left allows it to be,' [Kevin] Roberts said, in front of a backdrop advertising the Heritage Foundation, the conservative think tank involved in Project 2025…."
We've evolved to a kind of lazy spinelessness, adapting instead traits of belligerence of an audible type. Reactionaries have always been the shit-tossing monkeys in our global primate exhibit. What we're seeing now is screaming feces flinging. Zoos isolate their shit slingers. We have no zookeeper, so we're stuck squeegeeing ourselves while a "the thurd" have their fun. Could be the end game, as real courage has been replaced by gunpowder and lead... and the spine with a finger.
"What Roberts means by 'bloodless' is unclear, but critics immediately interpreted it as a threat that any resistance to the authoritarian far-right power grab laid out by Project 2025 would be met with violence."
"Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts, who has hauled the venerable think tank deep into MAGA land, hailed the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision using language that is barely veiled authoritarianism: '[W]e are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.'
Don’t make us hurt you, remains a recurring theme of Trumpism’s cycle of abuse."
@wdlindsy What is the Heritage Foundation's tax status? It seems to me they are acting like a political action committee, not a foundation. Shouldn't they be regulated as a PAC?
@wdlindsy When does the reality that the removal of one person would end this trauma begin to take root? We aren't helpless; if Trump leaves the stage what impetus remains for MAGAts to buy tat and decorate their pickups & homes? The whole Trumpie industry is just another scam!
