It's been obvious for a while. Too bad nobody is going to do anything about it before they take over the country and we start seeing some real American Taliban shit.

I dont trust either party to pass a a bill like this without it being really easy to abuse and weaponize. I bet trump would have gotten a lot of people in Portland, Seattle, and various protest sites tried as terrorists if he thought he had a tool to do so.

The GQP is a terrorist organization. Also, they'll do anything to win power. The fact that you support these things says a lot.

- I was correct in 2016.
- I thought GOP would get smacked in 2018, was correct about that.
- Thought Trump would win 2020 EC but lose popular vote again, was only off by 100k votes in a few states there. Mail in voting allowed otherwise unmotived voters to vote for an uninspiring candidate.

I just watched my state elect Youngkin with a historic early vote numbers and record state turnout. The writing is on the wall and even left leaning polls are predicting a big swing this November.

Nope, you must honestly be thinking of another user for some of those.

And remember - Biden won VA by 10 points in 2020. Dems lost Va in 2021 by 2 points with Biden approval still in the mid 40s. New Jersey had quite a point difference swing as well.

If that is any early indicator, with polls getting worse for Biden and inflation getting worse since then, Dems are getting shellacked.

of course republicans don't want anything done to curb domestic terrorism, that would mean

-possibility of decreased gun sales (think of the economy!)
-possibility of right-wing media not being allowed to spread violent hateful rhetoric such as the whole "white replacement" bullshit, which might lead to less fervor from audiences, lower viewership numbers, and again, less money flowing through right-wing interests
-possibility of less actual incidents of domestic terrorism, which republicans don't want, because every time an incident like this happens they use it as a further excuse to go "this isn't the time to talk about gun control. libruls are gonna want to use this incident as an excuse to take away your guns. don't let them!"

Refusing to do good things because the Republicans will abuse it is exactly the fucking problem. Cross that bridge when it comes.

By this argument, we should abolish the government and close America because "both sides" are pissed at each other. No rules!!!!

Policing thoughts isnt the answer. If youre too short-sighted to see how authoritarian that is then thats you. Democrats hate Russia, but want to be like Russia

if the thoughts in question are "the rightwing news media is telling me that white people are being replaced by minorities and so i have to go out and shoot up a black church or a store in a black neighborhood", then you're godfuckingdamn right they should be policed

Then youre goddamned paranoid because the media is not telling people to go out and kill people over their beliefs. Going after people simply because they believe in something and are vocal about it is fascist and can cause all sorts of issues with the first amendment. Now monitoring questionable behavior? Thats different and we have agencies in place that do these things. We dont need the Thought Police.

So all youre doing is speculating. You have no evidence that what you say is happening, but youre in favor of a fascist policy that would make it legal to go after someone for extremist views, which can change depending on who is in charge. Do you not see the problem here?
