So what now?

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.

Considering the victory of trumps election humiliated them and they resolved that issue by going full ahead and as you said skip the Fabian part of their doctrine(if I remember correctly) what will they skip this time?

Mercy.

They are effectively in a power-bubble for a litany of reasons. It's not really different then their attempts at printing money. They promise more money, print out tons of it, expand the money supply in utterly irrational efforts, and de-legitimize it with every step until the whole thing collapses in on itself. People who are outside of their system are "hording" money and need to 'get on board with the system'. That's why they start confiscating. A parallel system is intolerable. The more they seize, the more they promise, and the more they have to seize to keep the system running. Every step it gets more and more frantic.

They do the same thing with power. The more they promise, the more the bureaucracy grows, the more power is devalued because it is worthless and effects no change on the bloated institution. They expand more and more aggressively to sustain more promises for power to keep the support they have. When people refuse and form parallel systems of power, it threatens the stability of their system because theirs requires a monopoly. Everything must be seized. Everyone who isn't part of the system must either be purged or forced in. They will tolerate dissent less and less, and become more hysterical with each passing day, and every passing slight until...

pop

We dig in. We bury ourselves deep. The forest fire pass over us. Like the fire, it will not show mercy, but we will not need it's mercy. It will burn, it will flame, it will scorch, it will hiss, it will roar, it will howl, and then it will die quietly in a crackle, a sizzle, and a whimper. Then, we shall grow in the ash like the mighty pine.

Be The Pinecone

Considering I do not think their earlier behaviour was merciful... (more like disinterest which probably is their view of mercy.) that bodes well, so the question then is how far their lack of mercy will drive them, aka how many steps separated do you have to be. Oh well, atleast it will be interesting times. So the step is to endure until the maintenance of the system cannot be performed anymore, that could be a while depending on a lot of variables, would you say it is a postive then that they will try to make it so their rule is dependent on tech? I would argue that it is due to it having a higher maintenance (and logistics) then older systems aswell as requiring to some extent more trained custodians, which I see as potential for more dissidents being created by their own training.
