I think I read about it in a book once, where it was called “wrongthink”.

Pretty sure the term was invented in Minority Report as a legal gray area where it’s in many way immoral to prevent crime by arresting people before they commit anything. It’s literally a real life example of the Torment Nexus meme.

The rest of us have classified djt as a criminal.

Tax strike and contribute to the economy as little as you possibly can. Fuck this ghoul and fuck every piece of shit that voted for him.

Serious question, best way to stop paying income taxes?

This has a wealth of information in actual feasible ideas of what you can do to implement sniggle.net/TPL/TaxStrikeTactics/…/introduction/

File a new W4 with your employer. From the instructions:
Complete Form W-4 so that your employer can withhold the correct federal income tax from your pay. If too little is withheld, you will generally owe tax when you file your tax return and may owe a penalty. If too much is withheld, you will generally be due a refund.
If you feel the correct withholding is “$0.00”, W4 is how you tell your employer to not withhold anything for taxes.

He looks like he aged another 10 years since he got elected. Being a hateful shit does that.

Every president has aged prematurely. I guess being incredibly lazy doesn’t change that.

If y’all think the Democrats will reverse this, remember that they classified anti-capitalism as extremism under Biden.

Know where I can find out more about that?

It was part of his plan to address “domestic terrorism.” Also don’t forget, Kathy Hochul preceded Trump in sending in the national guard to “fight crime” despite every statistic showing a drop in violent crime.
We are not only at war with Trump and the GOP, but the entire political class.

That means that he’s libel whenever and wherever a capitalist can show that his policies harm profits.

“Pre-Crime”? This dumb mother fucker has watched Minority Report too many times. Try arresting someone for a future crime, the arrest is illegal and can legally be fought with force … this means no resist charges and the like. IMO, no real police officer would try it … that leaves “ice” to get smashed up.

I hope he dies publicly and his diaper overfills and explodes onto nearby Republicans.

My friend and I have been saying for years that we don’t wish death upon him, we wish utter humiliation. We want him to trip and shit himself while he’s walking on stage in full view of the cameras and audience.
On his death bed, he will believe he’s dying with dignity. But if he rips his Depends on stage, he’s gonna lose his mind.

Can we go for the good old fashioned lightning strike option? Nothing quite like an evil man being killed in a way indistinguishable from being smote by the wrath of an angry god.

In all likelihood they’d promptly revere their spattered articles of clothing as holy relics.

That is not dead which can eternal lie
