Straight ****ing psychopath. Also, what's up with Nazis and their love of trash, kitsch art?

A certain person whose memory they revere did have rather kitsch tastes.


This is the view of the Dundee police:--

“Around 7.40pm on Saturday, we received a report of a female youth with a bladed weapon in St Ann Lane, Dundee.

“Officers attended and a 14-year-old girl was charged in connection."

And that's about all there is about that, really. There's not much of a credible defence in law if you walk illegally armed before any supposed threat appears.

Oh it’s Dundee.

That reminds me of a segment of Jerry Sadowtizs comedy routine which used to focus on how he thought the most stupid people in the whole world were from Dundee.

So when the King dictated whoever could have whatever industry in Britain, that was leftist behavior from the King? Really bro?

This definition of left/right libertarians use is so dumb and ahistorical.


Luciom immediately jumping to the most insane conclusion per usual, just like the Minnesota murders of Dem politicians.

Naturally, this won’t have him rethinking his news sources at all.

He's just a king granting monopolies etc at will so practically a commie revolutionary compared to Luci's true God-King 😀

Your understanding of history is like a five year old's.


So I guess Right Wingers are saying this is a war against the US? I don't understand this rhetoric

And yeah, when Steven Miller is calling Democrats domestic terrorists and the rhetoric is so hateful and divisive then I guess a lot of those guys do think we are at war with our own citizens

I just can't wrap my head around why Republicans would support this

The only right wing poster I would consider ready for war with each other is Luciom yet none of the right posters are condemning this batshit insane rhetoric. Do Republicans on this forum really support this?

I never claimed to be an expert on medieval monarchies but are you saying this never happened? or are you just being a ****ing ****** as per usual?

I think a lot of people on the right support it. Trying to throw a candidate in jail on nonsense charges opened a can. Third world nonsense has arrived. There is no going back. If the other side regains power they will do the same, its on like donkey kong. I don't care who wins, just pass the popcorn. Lets not act shocked lol.

Its prolly best at this point the left takes note and gets them back. On the other hand if you are on the right, better put them in prison before they get you. Goodluck everyone

Sulla left a young Ceaser alive, in his mercy he spared him. Don't be Sulla


Honestly, if right wingers actually support civil war style rhetoric then I think we should just close this forum down. No point in being here. I'll just buy up some more guns and ammo and move on with my life

We have a saying where I work though and thats "Silence is concurrence"

Ignoring this is complicity

Alternatively, don’t take advice from ancient Roman dictators.

left/right came into existence in the last 2 centuries and had actual meaning only after Marx had it's time. as you know it.

nothing that happened pre Marx can be construed over the left/right axis.

some theoretical left/right existed between the French revolution and Marx but vanished since.

after Marx, you either abhor him and everything he advocates for (=right) or you embrace it (=left) or you are in between (center).

so yes today a king or parliament controlling which businesses can do what would be leftism, ubcontroversially, and it's kind of comical for you to deny this is the case

there is no support for any civil war either online or in real life, in the USA or in the UK or in Italy or elsewhere.

old (in the sense of median age of citizens) countries don't have revolutions or civil wars.

rethoric from some people can go astray. it did on the left when entire groups of people called the majority of the American population toxic (whites) and inimical to civilization. doesn't matter much until it becomes action, and it won't because old people don't wage war.


welcome to the real world Mr cordie

I don't think you should be doing victory laps because I will happily one touch ban and clean every right wing poster on this forum and recommend shutting this place down forever to the mod team before I listen to a bunch of ******s justify a civil war in the name of donald trump

it's not a victory lap, it's me telling you , you should have recognized that some portion of the population harbor an actual infinite hatred toward other portions of the population a while ago.

*it has always been the case*, it's not a new event.

5-10% of the population on either side would gladly mass murder a lot of people on the other side. with a smile.

what changed is that those people, who ALWAYS EXISTED, now are platformed and have a voice instead of being gatekept by mainstream media and the major parties.

is it better ? dunno. but that's the real world we live in.

what did you do when a ton of people came out in favour of Mangione murdering the top management of companies they thought behaved improperly?

you weren't worried then iirc, but this is the same ethos, the same approach to the world, those mangione fans displayed.

and again these people always existed. in the 50s a ton of people would have gladly have all radical leftists murdered by the state.

in the 70s a ton of people would have gladly murdered a ton of conservatives on the spot if they could.

that's *normal*. people with very different value systems hate each other's for real.

not in the "we disagree a lot" sense. but in the "I would gladly spend resources to have them all killed" sense.

but liberal democracy still works even if those people exist.

and material prosperity makes those people far less willing to actually go to the last mile and do what's needed to attempt the mass murder of the other side, which comes with heavy costs.

and older populations make it far far less probable as well. the over 40 have less energy, more to lose to chaos in term of careers, and they have kids they want to protect way and above political struggles and so on.

Incredible, sounds pretty much like the earliest nazis lol.
Now they say half the country are filled with enemies …..insane .
Yup the party of freedom of thoughts, speech and action lol….

Don’t worry, we recognize you a long time ago.
This guy miller sounds exactly like a fascist and you love him and think it’s all fine lol.

Fascism is about destroying any opposing views and he goes for it like you always do.


Yeah, I'm with Luciom on this one. I deal mostly with what I'd deem as normal right-wingers and I can count on no hands the number of them who would show up to some sort of armed conflict unless it arrived on their literal doorstep to threaten their families or livelihood.

This revolution, if it exists, is being fought on reddit and twitter, and probably won't escape the confines of the internet.

It's great that we're cracking down on law-breakers and illegals, but I don't see that as boots on the ground. That's just enforcing laws we already have on the books. I think the likes of most on this forum would consider Trump's recent actions actual shots across the bow intended to escalate real conflict. To that, I give an enthusiastic eye-roll. If the internet is correct, Trump will be dead of heart failure in 6 months. His dictatorship will be short-lived. Who's going to take up the mantle? Ivanka? Eric? I don't think so.

if it really was just about agreement with marxism then that contradicts you saying that it's about government interventionism only. I think marxists would deny that leftism is about purely government interventionism, so how can being in favor of that intrinsically be leftism?

Seeing how great your prediction about trump Was, and you knew how republicans are , wouldn’t vote anymore for trump …
I’m betting you will end up wrong .

You want to close down this forum because of a Stephen Miller comment or because there are people on the extremes who think that they want a civil war?

For a while now you've had plenty of people calling for violence in order to get what they want. I've seen the left say that multiple times that they need to get violent (w/e that means I dont know or care). I'd imagine that Vic would like to see some sort of war break out (but he can say for himself). You definitely have a minority of folks on the far right who want to see those people act up so that they can go after them - Like lucium.

But both those people don't exist in large numbers outside of the internet. And a civil war would be laughable in 2025 with how spoiled people are and the things they bitch about and would give up as soon as their door dash got affected.

If right wingers support a person in his cabinet(?) implying that we are currently in a "revolution" (civil war based on context) then yeah I think we should just shut the whole thing down. Its over, there is no point in debate anymore.

I don't know where you see this all going but its certainly not towards a peaceful handoff in 2028. "Sorry for all the rhetoric and illegal actions, here are the keys to unlimited power. Please don't throw us in jail"

That sounds completely silly at this point
