Given the outcome of the shitshow in DC today, do we have a Plan C for where to go after this? I have a feeling the .win family is going to be targeted soon and wanted to know where the current backups are.
Edit: Well shit, that escalated quick... see TDW for details in this thread: https://thedonald.win/p/11RhAqC6sa/mods-are-compromised/
I was pretty disappointed in today. The protesters clearly blew their load too early. I don't understand why people can't learn from antifa's tactics. They should have planned to be there for the long haul. Antifa was out Burning, Looting, and Murdering for three months straight.
These MAGA protesters are likely all going to go home tomorrow, satisfied that they worked their frustration out, and nothing will change.
We like to call antifa LARPers, but these people were LARPers in the truest sense. At the very least, antifa dedicate themselves fully to their cause, the MAGA protesters can't even come close to that.
Well, they did the opposite of what I thought they would do. I assumed they would hold a Trump rally. Instead they made international headlines, created a massive symbolic victory over the establishment, generated a martyr, and may become a centralizing and galvanizing point in American politics and culture for years to come.
I think you all are looking at this in totally the wrong perspective. Trump was never going to win today, and was (from what I can tell) preparing to leave office. He would not have gone out with a whimper, but this? Nobody planned this. People were just done with everything and took power for themselves.
That takeaway might be the most important aspect of everything. The right are being slowly, but surely, fully activated. The spirit of this moment is going to live on in a lot of people's minds as governors, congress, Harris, and Biden institute crazier and crazier lockdowns and restrictions. Civil Disobedience is going to become the norm against these actions. More activism is going to take place, not less. I still see State Secessionism as a possibility in some places.
I tell you this hurt the establishment in a way that that you probably don't understand. They were fucking humiliated. I agree with Barnes that somebody probably was looking to cause significant violence to take place, and instead the Establishment couldn't hold it's own center of power against a bunch of Grillers, some veterans, some Nick Fuentes fans, and a Zoomer in a funny hat. There is no action that could have undermined their status and perception of power more than what happened today.
This is a victory, whether it tactically appears to be one in the short term or not.
Quite right. It may not seem like much now, but I'm sure the same could have been said of the Boston Massacre back in 1770. The reverberations of 6th January 2021 may be felt for a long time to come.
I know. I didn't even say that I like what happened, or that it was a good idea.
What it will become, however, will be a permanent symbol that the establishment doesn't have the power that people think it does. They are reacting violently, not to real damage, but to humiliation. The undermining of their legitimacy is what hurt them. That is also why they will respond with violence. But when they do, and some normie gets beaten to a pulp in the street by a 'neighborhood watch patrol' to monitor the latest red-lined COVID lockdown, the angry neighbors and community will remember that some retards took over the capitol building out of nothing but sheer will. No backing, no organization, and no plan.
Imagine what would happen to a group of people who were genuinely resisting dire tyranny, but had a plan, had support, and had the will to fight because they knew they were fighting people that were using the illusion of power.
That's the thing that I have to harp on, because I'm one of the few people who've experienced it from the side with the power: power is fundamentally illusory.
Authoritarians kill to maintain that illusion... because they have to. Once it's gone, and your enemy neither fears you, nor respects you, you become the definition of Sun Tsu's "worst general": the general who's enemy's fight him forever, who never wins the war no matter how many battles he fights, and who's enemies will never acquiesce to his power. Once the illusion is shattered, like a magic trick you know the secret to, it can't be regained.
