As if the right didn't hate Bill Nye already.

Let’s be real: they would hate any “science guy”. These are “middle school model of Noah’s Ark” science-guys.

Money pilfered. Residents kidnapped. Blue cities occupied. Jailing our democratically elected leaders is the final Rubicon.

Jailing our democratically elected leaders is the final Rubicon.

Until the next Rubicon is crossed. And the next.

Until the next Rubicon is crossed. And the next.

Outside of carpet-bombing Manhattan, I'm not sure what else they could do. They've stolen our Congressionally mandated money, brutalized and human-trafficked our neighbors, and declared war on us. Once they take our leaders, what's left?

 

[Ru1977]

Let That Be Your Last Rubicon.

 

[AceofKnaves]

Once they take our leaders, what's left?

Us. All of “us”.

Out of frustration, I turned to humor last night and asked my dog, "Sophie, what'll you do when they start comin' for your kind?! Huh?"

My wife said that's when a lot of people will finally rise up.

 

[AceofKnaves]

They fuck with my cat, and I will cross any and all lines of ethical behavior.
My cat is my berserk button.

 

[TheSameIdiot]

Us. All of “us”.

I don't see it. How are you going to jail or deport at least 70 million people? Anyway, it's always been about control. They want us to live the way they think we should live, under their boot.

 

[Ru1977]

You don't have to jail or deport, just bomb... Which we know he would love to do. Bomb some blue cities, the rest will lose the fight in 'em.

I don't see it. How are you going to jail or deport at least 70 million people?

The Nazis executed 11 million people, with 1940s capabilities before -some- countries finally stopped them.
The question in the US is... what kind of damage can you do with modern technology and which countries are capable of stopping them?
