I’m well aware. I’m not making light of the things that will happen.

Let’s move on. This is what the American people wanted. Let them burn it all down. The adults will pick up the pieces when it’s all over.

Hes right. We gotta stay true to the science even through our shitposts.

I recently came to terms with being a trans woman and started coming out of the closet. Trump and the republicans took complete control of the government not long after this. The day after the election I was joking with my co workers in the lab that I won’t get sent to the concentration camps because “I’ll be one of the good ones”. I’m obviously being sarcastic but take it how you will. We’ll need some fucked up humor to get through some of the dark shit we’ll be dealing with these coming years.

You’re right, if we stop voting Democrat we might have a fascist come into power with control of all three branches of government…oh wait, fuck

… maybe we can vote democrat and stop it for a second time? …wait, wait fuck

… well maybe we can keep voting democrat to stop it happening for a third time I guess?

Democrat supporters are fucking deluded at this point.

Democrats lost worse on 2024 than Republicans did 2020. We judge Republicans for supporting their party after Trump effectively commandeered it but we don’t hold ourselves to the same standard when the Democratic party has been shown to be an absolute and abject failure. Maybe it’s time we look in the mirror. We gave Democrats three chances, 2016, 2020, and 2024 and they failed to deliver every time. We need to hold ourselves to the same standards we hold Republicans and start thinking about alternatives.

They royally fucked up three elections by pushing shitty unpopular candidates to the point where we ended up with a little fascist whiny bitch in office with unchecked power. We cannot rehabilitate the Democratic party, the damage is complete there is nothing there left to save. The democrats lost worse in 2024 than republicams did in 2020, we judge Republicans for hanging on to their party after it got commandeered by Trump, but when are democrats going to turn around and look in the mirror because our party fucked up worse than we could have possibly imagined and here we are sitting thinking it will be different next time, after twelve fucking years of this shit. Disaffected Republicans and Democrats must build a coalition to form a new party and kick out the old and stale guard that is holding on to our body of government like a tick with Lyme disease

I was more alluding to the fact that derivatives of his nerve agents were used to gas prisoners in concentration camps (Zyklon B)

From 1919 to 1923 Haber continued to be involved in Germany’s secret development of chemical weapons, working with Hugo Stoltzenberg, and helping both Spain and Russia in the development of chemical gases.[12]: 169

…

During the 1920s, scientists working at Haber’s institute developed the cyanide gas formulation Zyklon A

…

By 1931, Haber was increasingly concerned about the rise of National Socialism in Germany, and the possible safety of his friends, associates, and family. Under the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service of 7 April 1933, Jewish scientists at the Kaiser Wilhelm Society were particularly targeted. The Zeitschrift für die gesamte Naturwissenschaft (“Journal for all natural sciences”) charged that “The founding of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institutes in Dahlem was the prelude to an influx of Jews into the physical sciences. The directorship of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Physical and Electrochemistry was given to the Jew, F. Haber, the nephew of the big-time Jewish profiteer Koppel”. (Koppel was not actually related to Haber.)[12]: 277–280  Haber was stunned by these developments, since he assumed that his conversion to Christianity and his services to the state during World War I should have made him a German patriot. [39] Ordered to dismiss all Jewish personnel, Haber attempted to delay their departures long enough to find them somewhere to go.[12]: 285–286  As of 30 April 1933, Haber wrote to Bernhard Rust, the national and Prussian minister of Education, and to Max Planck, president of the Kaiser Wilhelm Society, to tender his resignation as the director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute, and as a professor at the university, effective 1 October 1933. He said that although as a converted Jew he might be legally entitled to remain in his position, he no longer wished to do so.[12]: 280

It’s going to take us at least a couple decades to get back on track. At that point I’ll be near retirement age. Yeah history progresses, but for me personally it’s over.

If it wasn’t going g to happen now it was going to happen 4 years from now. These people were never going to go away. Now we just have to let them burn the country down to completion before people come back to their senses. It sucks we have to be the ones living through it though

If they could read they would be very upset you said that

If it was against an insurgency sure. But clearly Trump is what the majority wants so let these dipshits fester in their own urine. If Trump doesn’t fix the economy then maybe.

Silver lining I guess. But it was more to save the preservation of the Union, there were still slave states in the Union during the Civil War. And non-blacks still thought they were superior to blacks even if they didn’t believe in slavery, and that was the majority opinion long after the Civil war too.

Yup, progressive politics in the US has been an exception not the rule. After about ~30 years we are just going back to business as usual. People forget segregation and women not being able to have their own bank accounts and abortion being illegal (the first time), is not something from ancient history. And before that the country literally went to war over itself over the idea that they should be able to own other huma s as property

They all voted with their wallets. It’s really simple. That’s how these people are able to come into power.

I’ve been learning about the history of the Civil War. Progressive politics in America are the exception not the rule, hundreds of thousands of Americans died because they wanted to own other human beings as property.

I don’t even care anymore
