They literally planned this.
They literally briefed it.
...............
They put it in writing.
..................
It's all a lie.
These people are liars. They are violent miserable goons who will cheerfully murder the rest of us and overthrow democracy and call it the "best day ever" just exactly the same way it happened in Germany a hundred years ago. Those Nazi sons of bitches thought they were right and righteous too.

(4,552 posts)The south has spent the last 150 years celebrating their treason. We allowed that to happen, we appeased them.
That plan was a huge mistake. Lee and Davis should have been hung. All commanders should have gone to prison.
We should not have needed to take down statues. They should never have been built.
We must crush this treason and all who were involved need to be punished. Draw the line and make it clear.
NO MORE APPEASEMENT. It does not work. William Tecumseh Sherman had the right plan.

The Jungle 1
(4,552 posts)Politics got in the way and the south was given a free pass. They lynched and killed at will. We will never know how many.
We can't let this treasonous event go the same way. We are getting convictions. I would like to see stiffer terms. However I do not think we can win in front of a jury. So the prosecutors are cutting deals.
That filthy treasonous woman who compared her treatment to the Jews in Germany should be put in general population today! Plus her orange jump suit should have a patch that says TREASON.
We must stay angry! It is not pleasant but we must.

if americans want real democracy it is essential that Democratic and progressive leaders and their orgs STOP IGNORING it.
the worst part is that despite it's importance in the republican and russian attack on democracy, it is extremely vulnerable now with limbaugh's death and the advances in artificial intelligence that make it so easy to expose and quantifying the lies as well as the businesses that advertises on those stations.
