I think this is something a lot of rightoid types don't really understand. You know the kind, the neurodivergent or at least neurodivergent-adjacent people who get all confused by the QAnon shaman into misunderstanding the nature of insurrection.
The human social forces are basically composed of a lot of legacy code. You may have heard some of it described as 'patriarchy.' The basic idea is that underneath it all, we're just primates who follow the instructions of the patriarch.
When patriarchs duel, they duel to the death.
All of the morons who had some difficulty understanding why leftists cried out about muh norms and policies as Trump forced our country into ruinous descent by sheer barbaric boomer drivel, well, they seem to me to be the kind of people (neurodivergents) for whom norms and policies are an elaborate fiction wrought by normie minds.
Well, yes.
Because the fictions obscures and replaces something far more barbaric and savage. It's not very far underneath the surface, the violence between primates. Primal primate violence.
And I actually tend to think that neurodivergents are especially predisposed to buying the narrative of state (not just what the state says, but that the state can say it). After all, the state says that if you follow rules and get good grades, you're a goodthink and you get rewarded for your goodthink.
The problem with buying the narrative of state is that you get confused when the narrative of state is confusing. This difficulty telling the difference between meaningfully true fiction and spurious idiotic fiction is another major political dysfunction of our online politics.
And I don't know why I recircle, I don't know why I rewrite. It's just that the more people saying it, the better off we will be.
It's not complicated. A patriarch grunted and the mob struck the symbolic building. This is a second narrative of state, which is now engaged in a duel to the death.
The natural consequence of this is that the losing patriarch and all of its family are killed. That's the old way.
But whatever, you think a goofy mug shot is winning. Fricking shithead dipshits. The mug shot is proof that they can kill him any time they want.
The new way is justice: his crimes are documented, and he is punished by spending the rest of his life in prison. After Nixon we won't make the same mistake twice. If he's pardoned I doubt very much he escapes assassination by some rando crazy.
But look at the numbers. 70% of people want an age limit. Apparently almost '2 in 3' think Trump is guilty. The civil war would be brutally short.
The only reason the nazis marching in Florida ('it's only 40 people lmao way to overreact to fascism' shut up you're neurodivergent) weren't gunned down is because the leftists and moderates have trigger discipline. The only reason Trump's family is alive, for now, is we still have time for the system to chew up this boomer obstacle.
If you're still confused about any of this...
