Great turnout for No Kings in ATX today. Very cool, very chill.
Been doing these since Feb and this one was easily ±4-5x- bigger than the best attended so far.
Even after they closed streets trying to make it impossible.
Crowd took 35-40 minutes to pass by. Thats good stuff. Thanks patriots.✌️❤️🎸

Silently coasting the dips, cashing the checks, then bailing on your donors plane out at the first sign of physical risk anyway....
is a really really bad look.
No possible way back to the money trough from there.

Everything is a wrench.
Your keys, your access, your badge, the password, the database, a pinch of sand...all of it

It'll be fun for her when the whip changes hands.

The illegitmate adminstration likes to drop something big on Fridays to "win the week".
This week the best they could do was spring that sad unloved little broken toy Santos.
Team Real America?..
We turned out millions nationwide and abroad

Their retort? A purile AI slop video.

We're not losing.

Seems the missing pieces are the dated notions of "duty", "obligation" to say nothing of the debt you owe the society that afforded you the obvious advantages and liberties you, until recently, enjoyed. A great many people, of all persuasions, races, and faiths died to afford you that reality.

Sometimes you must do things "because you should".
This simple concept was drilled into me by my mom and grandmother at a tender age
Also- if the rebellion you need is to be comprised of the higher minds in your culture you can hardly expect them to sign on until less radical options are exhausted.

Faux God-Squad blather, drivel of the highest order-bordering on garden variety lunacy

How's the dander?...getting up yet? or still nah?

I really dunno what else anyone needs to see to get in touch with their warrior spirit....I mean if that doesn't do it...wtf does

It's my understanding that y'all caved on "normalcy" though..

Spicoli's Dad @spicolisdad.bsky.social · 8h

Buck up Skippy, and get all your sh*t in one bag because we have a fight to win.

Spicoli's Dad @spicolisdad.bsky.social · 8h

Yeah.
It's rough to get that from your own tribe.
They get big mad when you explain that in the end the petty inter-tribal bullsh*t stops for the time it takes to win.

-Or-

We all lose it all and experience a unimaginably terrible future.

That's the menu.
No 31 flavors
No kid's meal.

Spicoli's Dad @spicolisdad.bsky.social · 8h

Don't crash out bro.
It's a bad look man and it fosters despair.
Have a little faith dude
They took their shot at the Big Grab at 26% on their best day.
That was never going to be enough.
The people are coming along...
too slow?...too few?..maybe..but they're coming.

In the wake of the awesome No Kings protests - A lawyer/author I follow did a 20 part doomer dissertation.
Boo man...booooo
Yes it's taking too long. Yes its too precious.
But this is the process of exhausting the easy stuff the majority requires before going full "wild eyed revolutionary"

Spicoli's Dad @spicolisdad.bsky.social · 10h

No. And while many others would prefer more direct methods- The majority are not accelerationists of a revolutionary bent and feel an obligation to work through what are viewed as the proper "steps".
Granted this obligation is to a society that likely no longer exists- but is deemed necessary.

Doritos....it causes doritos

Hmmm...turns out that seeing a few ten of thousands of like minded folks doing good stuff really pierces the veil of gloom and grump...
Thanks everyone. Keep it up.

Setting a good example, a little baby patriot discovers what democracy looks like.
