secure housing, with no food insecurity, medical care, and plenty of hygiene supplies

So ... Prison, right? We're talking about prison?

People love looking at the first civil war in conversations like this, but the next civil war is going to be nothing like it. For a likely comparison, you'd have to look at the Spanish Civil War and The Troubles in Ireland.

Americans have no fucking clue what they're asking for.

I don't have to imagine rotflol

My kid and a bunch their friends deal with it, and I and many others are there to help them. And it sucks for them BIG TIME. It's hard, even with supportive family and friend groups. My kid had two classmates just this year lose their lives to suicide due to LGBTQ hate.

The 90s were worse.

I really think you have no idea what you're saying.

Great example of how fascists view the law as something to oppress others, not to restrict themselves. "Law and order (for thee not for me)"

Fwiw I'm a trans person who grew up in the 80s/90s and I still think the 90s were way WAY worse than present day for trans people.

Things are bad right now, really bad, but they're not as bad as they were in the 90s. Not even close.

That's just how bad the 90s were.

Us: We think about you all the time!

Corporations: Funny, because we don't think of you ever.

Correct, he he follows through with his threat then he will lose when it goes to court.

So all he has to do is delay his action until right before the election, so the court can't react in time and its decision ends up coming after the election is over. At that point, because America as proven time and again that it won't redo an election no matter how flagrantly election laws are broken, it won't matter and he'll have gotten away with it.

It's very well documented that Lenin returned to Russia from exile with the help of Germany, and made significant use of German money and military supplies during the revolution. He even got shit for it from his own communist party. He kept in their good graces by promising to start a communist revolution in Germany next. Funny how that one never quite got off the ground...

And then the Nazis came to power, arrested all the communists, and eventually broke the alliance with the ussr.

The info's pretty easy to find, Google will get you some good articles about it.

After all, they were allies before Hitler betrayed Stalin.

You're using this to support your argument that authleft = authright, but you're forgetting that Lenin was an agent of Germany. The alliance between Germany and Russia predates both Hitler and Stalin, and had nothing to do with whether their governments were similar in any way.

The 14th Amendment doesn't require a conviction, and innocent until proven guilty doesn't apply because this is a civil suit.

I'll be surprised if this doesn't go all the way to SCOTUS though.
