Using violent tactics is not synonymous with war mongering. Maybe a definition helps to differentiate the difference “A warmonger is someone strongly pro-war. Warmongers favor war above all other options.”

The USSR was not communism. Even if you protest and hold ground that it was communist, it does not represent communism and was objectively separate from anarchism. You argument is akin to saying that the USA is democracy.

The stock market is a cult. Company valuations have detached from any sense of use-value reality - most of the stock markets’values is derived from how much money a stock might make and not what value a company provides to society. Valuations don’t even mirror how much revenue potential companies have, but make it up based on future revenue potential, which can be easily manipulated to simply create wealth. It’s been this way for a long time, but the extent of the situation has lost nearly any attachment to reality.

The stock is actually up 10% this month. The stock market is a shell game on full display at this point.

These sick fucks would look directly in your eyes while they shit on the floor and then lie to you it was the dog.

Probably more sexually assaults kids as I don’t they make ED medication strong enough to get any blood flow to his crippled chicken mcnugget.

I’ve suggested just that to a few climate change deniers over the years, like most primary research opportunities none of them seem too interested in generating data…

Come hang out in -35c and then talk to me.

We got em in our Kia and they’re amazing this time of year.

Civil war/sabotage from within are option too, but I am not seeing any sense of leadership emerging on either of those fronts (not to say it would/should be obvious).

Tyranny has taken over - staying is a choice to live in fascism. Fascism does not die from within, it does a slow death from being excommunicated from the world or it dies a quick death as the world responds to it’s expansionist tendencies. It does not die because people stop voting for it.

That anyone would want to be part of a regime that oppressive and call it freedom is insane, to put it lightly.

You only have to pay them if you move back to the US (and want to work). It’s not like other governments disclose your finances to the US.

No, but there will be a war front that you can position yourself on the not-scum side of.

Totally fair - being stateless is objectively worse that being hated by your state (I don’t mean that sarcasticly, it’s fucked up on so many levels)

Fascism is always a possibility anywhere in the world. The difference is that it’s here and now in the US. I sure as shit would be doing everything I could to not be there anymore if I were there. It’s fucking scary enough watching it from Canada and I won’t have any hesitation to flee if the tanks start rolling in this direction.

You’re totally right, no other dictator has ever taken an oppressive position to their intelligentsia and those that remained in fascist nations have been super effective at degrading it from within… Just look at the USSR, Italy, Spain or Chile under their fascist leaders. They all were super supportive of their institutions of higher learning and those that remained stopped all kinds of atrocious government actions. They were all better off for staying put. /s

Doesn’t matter in the context of the comment thread. I’m simply saying people do, and Americans can too, if that’s what they need to do to escape participation/subjection of the evil empire.

Can’t you denounce your citizenship? It’s also not possible for them to force you to pay taxes on income you don’t earn in the US - unless you want to return at some point. I hope you’re some place safe that respects your identity now.
