Donald Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term, with the former president naming individuals he wants to investigate or prosecute and his associates drafting plans to potentially invoke the Insurrection Act on his first day in office to allow him to deploy the military against civil demonstrations.

    I don’t think it’s hyperbole to characterize living in a christo-fascist ethnostate as the end of the world. Empires are made up of people and the decline you’re referring to involves the death of a lot of them, so maybe factor that into your apathy equation. It’s easy to view civilization as something you learned in high school, but for the people living in it, it actually matters.

      I tell you what, bud: if I find me a magic lamp, wish 3 is gonna be for America to be the country we all dream about in our sleep. Right after I get my first wish of a blowjob machine that cures cancer and my second wish of Ronald Regan getting sent to an even lower circle of hell than whichever one he’s currently in. Wish 3, though? All yours.
