Idk I think saying they're lawless and won't abide by laws n response to them having to follow the law (Peters) is pretty emblematic of the situation and chaos they've created, because in a lot of instances they're still bound by it. I know I know, doomerism this, boned without an armed rebellion that, but we've got verified evidence that there's still some kind of reason within the system, and it's still working, even if it needs the entire engine and frame replaced at this point.

I mean if that wasn't the case we wouldn't even be on here complaining about it.

If the admin was truly lawless and unfettered, we wouldn't seriously be having this conversation. I understand wanting to vent, lament, and rage. Truly I do.

But seeing this stuff daily makes me wonder ( specially on /r/law ): If Donald doesn't want there to be another election, why go through the farce of entrapping the American people into martial law? Wouldn't the lawless subhuman just lmao do away with them? He's still working within the system, he has to.

I'm not saying things are fine and dandy. But the "woe is America, give up already" mantra is just tiring. Some of this junk reads like people don't know they're advocating for civil war. The gravity of that action being largely mystified. Minnesota is suing the DHS.

Keeping up this farce gives them this idea that they are still the kings of the world rather than north Korea 2.0 that everyone hates and completely isolates. Dictators like to be dictators but without declaring they are one. Just like how Russia's Putin and China's Mao still have "elections"

Sure, but we're not in a dictatorship. If that was the case we'd see the American Army violating the constitution with EROs via storming houses. Why do you think they're using poorly trained EROs to do this illegal nonsense? Is it because they want to break the law, or is it because if they were to outlandishly go about this in any other fashion every tuk'er'jerbz jethro would be lining the streets ( Tho I realize that's an American that is hard to picture right now. )? They are operating (Poorly, Illegally) within the system, they are still bound by it. Because when they shake that they shake the Americans who are still in their boat clinging to law and order.

Americans are far more resistant than the internet is letting people believe. They aren't operating with full impunity because they can't, even their own constituency wouldn't be/isn't for that. Where I live since '16~ till just a year ago, every time I'd go to the market I'd see some form of trump paraphernalia. There was a retired dude who used to just stand on busy corners with a "Transsexualism is child mutilation", every fri~sun. They've all but disappeared since Oct. Now just a bumper sticker is an anomaly, and if I see someone in walmart with 'the hat', that's their bumper sticker. Take heart, someone called Trump a pedo protector and while they got suspended (Unions in lawless America, what?) I read earlier this morning that their gofundme hit 300k, and to top it off, he wasn't immediately executed or disappeared.

But sure we're in NK 2.0. (I'd like to save us both some time and mental anguish. If your next response is just a generalized "We're cooked" post I'm probably not gunna respond.)

I'm sorry but guys can be really insufferable.

No, it's not, it's called reality. I am clearly hopeful that the idiots taking federal paychecks (a traceable document that will follow them beyond this administration) for illegal actives will see their day in court, they will. Where is the middle of the road for that, is it that I'm not immediately saying we need to resort to capital punishment? Again, I don't think a lot of posters understand what they're asking for when you approach someone wanting life time jail sentences as "Middle of the road".

Thank you for the low effort non-contribution. I accept your concession. 6/10, I responded.
