I've spent the last few years deeply afraid of the idea that the chuds are just going to start killing people in broad daylight, but when I look back on it, it's pretty clear that a one-sided civil war has been underway the entire time.

This is the kind of thing I worry about sparking into a civil war. It wouldn't be traditional civil war. Just general radicalized stupidity. No definable "sides" just never knowing who might decide to bring out their hidden desire to kill you because they dislike any random aspect of your person as we've divided on so many different issues. Just chaos.

The true allies are the ones who stand with you when the brutality starts. Who take the gun shots with you.

I hope it doesn't come to it (It feels like it already has)

This "Civil War of Stupidity" has already long begun. One side just closes it's ears and eyes and hopes everything will go away on its own magically.

Six million Californians voted for Trump. They're fucking everywhere. It might be marginally more difficult to get away with hate crimes without punishment here, but that doesn't do the victim of said hate crime any good while it's happening. Nowhere is safe from these bigoted shitheads. You can't ever forget that.

This is probably inevitable, and has likely already passed the point historians will point to as the beginning of such a period. It's hard to know these things when you're in the middle of them. The US will go through a time equivalent to The Troubles in Ireland until the fascists have been beaten into their holes again for another generation or two.

His twitter account is still up. He really was peddling and consuming every conspiracy theory and right wing culture war bullshit out there.

You can directly link his violent hatred towards the pride flag to a recent Matt Walsh podcast episode.

Apple and every podcast platform have blood on there hands when they host these Daily Wire or any far right podcast. Literally stochastic terrorism.

I know we all feel the same and we all said it before and it just feels like screaming into a soundless void but these people really should be held accountable.

"We need to start holding people criminally accountable for speech that hypothetically precedes violence even if unconnected" says local area forum that constantly advocates and hopes for violence including in posts directly advocating for this mass speech suppression by the police state.
