These 2 songs have gone beyond viral:



Do you think civil war is a possibility? It doesn't seem like there's any peaceful path toward unifying the country.

the usa isn't divided well enough geographically for a civil war. even family and friends dont agree with each other that much sometimes.
it'd be more like civil unrest and anarchy

i think the country isn't as bad as pundits would have you believe. the average person is very immature politicallly so they latch onto stereotypes and undeveloped ideas, but most of the country is okay with how things are, we're no where close to getting people ready to give up their security to fight a war

rich men north of richmond. it's not that catchy, but it struck a nerve with the working class. the dude turned down millions to sign a music contract. he's topping the charts, even beating some of taylor swift's new songs. he rails against welfare lolz

For a civil war people would have to turn off the TV, log off the internet, quit whining, get off the couch, and take action.

So no, I don't think a civil war is a possibility.

I did, I went to protest on Jan 6.

It should go without saying that I was not convinced there will be no civil war lol

D John Trump?

There's a lot of people (Democrats) that thought eliminating Brown and his insurrection would bring unity. How wrong could they have been?

If he died trying to publish government secrets I will take back everything mean I've ever said about him and use as song about him as our civil war anthem.

They were pretty wrong. It was a Chinese finger trap then and its the same now.

Tangent: when I really want to piss off a marine (from a safe distance of more than 1 km), I remind him that they killed John Brown. (If they're army it's sand creek and wounded knee)

Anytime a politician says “this is a threat to our democracy,” what he’s really saying is “this is a threat to my bank account and my position of power.”

Anytime a politician says “this is a threat to our democracy,” what he’s really saying is “this is a threat to my bank account and my position of power.”
And the cherry on top is that apparently what is a threat to said bank account and position of power... is people saying there is a threat to democracy. It's more than coincidence. Hilary wipes her data, they blame Trump for wiping data. Biden extorts Ukraine, they blame Trump for extorting Ukraine. They undermine democracy, they blame Trump for undermining democracy.

If it wasn't for the fact that all of the left-tribe abuses came first you might think that Trump is just accusing them of everything he did.


When asked how they managed to track down every Trump voter in the state, officials said it only required them to hack into the electronic voting machines to access voter data and create a list of who everyone in the state voted for. "Being able to hack into these machines and manipulate data is an important part of keeping our elections free and fair," Willis explained.
Oh Babylon Bee, I should remember not to read you while drinking a beverage.

Apparently they're already onto Joe's alt account:

I do look forward to DoubleR trying to evade this one. "huh just one email, Robert L Peters could be anyone, whoever he was he was acting in the best interests of the state department and just about everyone in the entire world. Everybody wanted him to forward Hunter that stuff."

"Do you really think Obama didn't already know everything about Robert L Peters before he was conceived? Obama sees the same intelligence reports as God."

Ok time to go to sleep.

The Babylon Bee! 

Real Fake News for morons!

The Babylon Bee is a conservative Christian news satire website that publishes satirical articles on topics including religion, politics, current events, and public figures. It has been referred to as a Christian, evangelical, or conservative version of The Onion.[1][2][3]

If you want to know what’s going on, talk to an evangelical Christian. Lol

A song for Greyparrot.


Hey.

Who needs songs,

When you've got all the guns.

Just keep your head down Mr Parrot,

Because, remember, remember, remember,

Everyone's got a gun.


And

After the war you will all be happy,

Because no one will have died in vain,

And everyone will be friends.

Because life will be perfect, perfect, perfect,

With no resentments.


Da dee dah dee dah dar.

Diddly dum tee tum tee tum.

Plenty of the clown people are talking a good game, that's always good for a few laughs. 

But beyond blathering, I don't think so, people who are afraid of everything would throw a comedy of a civil war. 

I can see it now, an advancing army in red noses and big floppy shoes comes over the hill to see a row of Drag Queens and the terrified army runs away screaming,  then from the rear and right up the middle of the whimpering crybabies we send a gay parade, terrified, they will all surrender and willingly march back to thier trailer parks. 

We won't even have to use the thing they are the most terrified of, gasp, black people!

lol IWRA has identified the fake news site lol, good job IWRA, you're a genius.

I'll have you know BabylonBee is fake news you can trust: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45fV2vnTogo

TL;DR: It's funny because the kernel of truth (in case you didn't know how comedy works)


But beyond blathering, I don't think so, people who are afraid of everything would throw a comedy of a civil war. 
If you knew anything about war you would know that people are much more dangerous when they are afraid of everything. Fear makes you good tactician. Fear doesn't mean surrender.


We won't even have to use the thing they are the most terrified of, gasp, black people!
I marched with black people on Jan 6 pal and I'm bisexual. As in the first civil war you delude yourself about the nature of the enemy. That is why these things happen when so many can see them coming, the human capacity for self-delusion is infinite.

For the U.S. government, an outbreak of widespread political violence inside the country’s borders would necessarily become a military operation. U.S. militias are significant enough that the FBI or the Department of Homeland Security would simply be insufficient to deal with them. Only the U.S. military could be capable of dealing with insurgent forces. And from a tactical point of view, any engagement between U.S. forces and a militia (or any insurgent force of any kind for that matter) would be entirely one-sided. Despite the preparations of right-wing militias, and despite the sheer number of weapons available in the United States, the U.S. Marines are still the U.S. Marines. No militia or organized group of militias could compete with them in battle.

What's the name of the militia you are leading?

Yea, that's what they just can't wrap their head around. It's because their echo chamber is so complete that they have "otherized" and "dehumanized" the right tribe completely.

A Maggot? A trumpet? Those live out there far away in some racist town in the hills. They're poor. They're stupid. They have nothing to do with the american I know.

Where have we seen this before? Oh yes: "The Yankee army is filled up with the scum of creation and ours with the best blood of the grand old Southland." - Actual confederate soldier explaining why being out numbered wasn't an issue.

Robert E Lee thought the war would be over quickly, so he didn't see the need to invade the capitol.

Yes, even after they literally shot cannons at each other they expected deescalation.

The American revolutionaries did a similar thing after bunker hill, sending envoys like "Hey I know we just had an open freaking battle, but isn't this a great time to meet our demands and find a way forward?"

Then you have people like Tim Pool saying about Jan 6 "It hurt our cause, it didn't help; violence always harms the cause" while FLRW types do the hunger games noble impression and Pool's audience is screaming "better war than submission"

Three different periods, three times basic human nature is misunderstood.

The proud and the self-righteous will always choose war over submission. Violence will always bring escalation until the point of breaking morale (after all the horrors of war are wrought).

Those who would prevent war must resolve the underlying dispute. Instead they laugh and say "bring it, we'll drone strike you it will be so easy."

I say bring it

You will not lose a civil war because Marines are  tough

You will lose based on technology,  armor, air power, artillery, special forces, intelligence, comms and logistics

Anyone who spent a day in the military knows this

You will be crushed
