I swear that you all are trying to get pre-mad that an election win wasn't big enough to change everything, instantly, like in a Hollywood movie. The country will still be heavily divided, and that shit predates Trump and will continue after Trump. Accept a narrow victory and focus on stacking the gains 2026->2028. Softcore assassination porn and weird fantasying about avoiding Democracy when you don't like the results is not the way.

Your heart's in the right place, but your head is not.


Odd strawman from my post arguing against him dying in a video game.
I did say softcore porn. Hardcore porn would be saying you think Donald Trump should be assassinated prior to leaving office.

Actually, transitioning from a video game to a Hollywood drama about the perfect election victory has a narrative rhyme that I missed the first time around.

GH is doing what you said, he’s setting up to quote the posts of Sim and Jan, and claim they need to join his revolution or something. The rest of us are just mixing hope and despair.
Small election wins in subsequent elections are the kind of progress we need and can use, and big wins are possible if Iran keeps going the way its going and the tariffs keep killing the economy. I think the morose attitude on what a small win will say about America is puerile.

Nonetheless I’m pretty sure Billyboy nor Simberto expressed no such assassination sentiment, so it feels odd to me to throw it out in a direct reply to them.

I’ve no such compunctions and I’ll admit to that, the sooner the cunt is out of office the better. Given there are seemingly no limits to what his own party will tolerate, and he’s clearly not going to face censure for his many crimes, death is quite the equaliser, something no person can escape.

Would prefer natural causes or a hilarious accident than assassination, which I don’t support.
The softcore assassination porn was more directed at you and simberto ("A much better scenario than assassination in minecraft" as an evaluation of degree). To Billy, it appears that his problem with assassination is martyrdom, not assassination.

I wholly reject that, I’m in the hardcore assassination porn camp, give me some credit.

I don’t think that’s accurate based on Billy’s general posting and what I’ve gleamed from his musing in general. He’s free to speak for himself of course, but contextually I took him to mean ‘assassination is bad, and there may be a martyr effect’, not ‘assassination is bad because there’s a martyr effect’.

And to follow your earlier billionaire logic, not sure why it’s bad really. I think the death of a person would be of a benefit for wider society, what’s the problem? If you support any domestic policy or foreign intervention that so much as kills 2 people well, you’re twice as bad as me right off the block.
Because you're not the only one on the block with ideas on who in society we should kill in order to make society better off.

Perhaps not but my ideas are actually good ones.

Facetiousness aside maybe Republicans should have backed impeachment, as they should have if they had any gumption.

Instead we’re locked into 4 years of absolutely blatant corruption, with a man who has already skirted his just desserts actively stacking institutions in his favour

So I mean you can’t get rid of him via legitimate means, that ain’t happening.

So it’s either health issue, assassin or just sitting around watching this certifiable prick fuck around for another few years. I know where my preferences would lie there.

Not really sure what the issue is with that really.

Iran is promising a crushing response, Bahrain air sirens are blaring. I still think this will be short lived but it seems more like new normal of this type of outburst then a thing of the past.

It was won, but shortly after that Trump needed our help to win the war, but then he decided he was going to destroy an entire civilisation if everyone didn't let him win the war, and then Trump was Jesus and now he appears to be conducting the war entirely at random day by day.

Hope that clarifies things.

The important thing to remember is that the winner of the most fifa peace prices in history has ended this war more often than anyone had ever believed possible.

Not just wars but the careers of many a political satirist. Many have just switched to the news desk because simply reporting on reality is better material than they could conjure

To steelman dyhb's position, I think the bar being raised to assassinating a sitting president as acceptable political violence, it's important to recognize all the stuff that is beneath that bar which must then also be acceptable political violence. If you're okay with Trump being assassinated, then you'd have to accept Obama being assassinated also. After all, he's just a former president and not the sitting president. I think there's merit to that concern.

For myself I'm 'okay with' Trump being assassinated for a reason other than him being a republican president. Someone lost their life savings dumping into trumpcoin and then got rugpulled and wants revenge, or some similar sort of karmic justice for Trump's many moral failings. Less a political assassination, more a personal one.

And yeah obviously I'd rather we weren't talking about a sitting president being assassinated, but when he's this brazenly corrupt and the system is powerless to remove him, of course people are gonna talk about other options.

Your heart's in the right place, but your head is not.


Odd strawman from my post arguing against him dying in a video game.
I did say softcore porn. Hardcore porn would be saying you think Donald Trump should be assassinated prior to leaving office.

Actually, transitioning from a video game to a Hollywood drama about the perfect election victory has a narrative rhyme that I missed the first time around.

GH is doing what you said, he’s setting up to quote the posts of Sim and Jan, and claim they need to join his revolution or something. The rest of us are just mixing hope and despair.
Small election wins in subsequent elections are the kind of progress we need and can use, and big wins are possible if Iran keeps going the way its going and the tariffs keep killing the economy. I think the morose attitude on what a small win will say about America is puerile.

Nonetheless I’m pretty sure Billyboy nor Simberto expressed no such assassination sentiment, so it feels odd to me to throw it out in a direct reply to them.

I’ve no such compunctions and I’ll admit to that, the sooner the cunt is out of office the better. Given there are seemingly no limits to what his own party will tolerate, and he’s clearly not going to face censure for his many crimes, death is quite the equaliser, something no person can escape.

Would prefer natural causes or a hilarious accident than assassination, which I don’t support.
The softcore assassination porn was more directed at you and simberto ("A much better scenario than assassination in minecraft" as an evaluation of degree). To Billy, it appears that his problem with assassination is martyrdom, not assassination.

I wholly reject that, I’m in the hardcore assassination porn camp, give me some credit.

I don’t think that’s accurate based on Billy’s general posting and what I’ve gleamed from his musing in general. He’s free to speak for himself of course, but contextually I took him to mean ‘assassination is bad, and there may be a martyr effect’, not ‘assassination is bad because there’s a martyr effect’.

And to follow your earlier billionaire logic, not sure why it’s bad really. I think the death of a person would be of a benefit for wider society, what’s the problem? If you support any domestic policy or foreign intervention that so much as kills 2 people well, you’re twice as bad as me right off the block.
Because you're not the only one on the block with ideas on who in society we should kill in order to make society better off.

Perhaps not but my ideas are actually good ones.

Facetiousness aside maybe Republicans should have backed impeachment, as they should have if they had any gumption.

Instead we’re locked into 4 years of absolutely blatant corruption, with a man who has already skirted his just desserts actively stacking institutions in his favour

So I mean you can’t get rid of him via legitimate means, that ain’t happening.

So it’s either health issue, assassin or just sitting around watching this certifiable prick fuck around for another few years. I know where my preferences would lie there.

Not really sure what the issue is with that really.


To steelman dyhb's position, I think the bar being raised to assassinating a sitting president as acceptable political violence, it's important to recognize all the stuff that is beneath that bar which must then also be acceptable political violence. If you're okay with Trump being assassinated, then you'd have to accept Obama being assassinated also. After all, he's just a former president and not the sitting president. I think there's merit to that concern.

For myself I'm 'okay with' Trump being assassinated for a reason other than him being a republican president. Someone lost their life savings dumping into trumpcoin and then got rugpulled and wants revenge, or some similar sort of karmic justice for Trump's many moral failings. Less a political assassination, more a personal one.

And yeah obviously I'd rather we weren't talking about a sitting president being assassinated, but when he's this brazenly corrupt and the system is powerless to remove him, of course people are gonna talk about other options.

This applies to any proprietor of a memecoin or just Trump?


Are all proprietors of memecoins the same?

You're saying you're okay with someone personally shooting Trump because they personally lost their life savings, even if they are the die-hardest MAGA who loves the use of the military and DHS, because for example you don't like some random other thing Trump did like attacked Iran in a war with collateral damage that involved a blown up school? Sounds like you want him killed for reasons other than the memecoin.

No you fucking bingbong, I'm saying in the hypothetical where trump were assassinated I'm 'okay with' it if it's a result of his moral failings, an example of which I offered being him launching a memecoin as president.

Given the hypothetical of Trump's assassination, what moral failing of Trump's is your preferred example?

Perhaps not but my ideas are actually good ones.

Facetiousness aside maybe Republicans should have backed impeachment, as they should have if they had any gumption.

Instead we’re locked into 4 years of absolutely blatant corruption, with a man who has already skirted his just desserts actively stacking institutions in his favour

So I mean you can’t get rid of him via legitimate means, that ain’t happening.

So it’s either health issue, assassin or just sitting around watching this certifiable prick fuck around for another few years. I know where my preferences would lie there.

Not really sure what the issue is with that really.


To steelman dyhb's position, I think the bar being raised to assassinating a sitting president as acceptable political violence, it's important to recognize all the stuff that is beneath that bar which must then also be acceptable political violence. If you're okay with Trump being assassinated, then you'd have to accept Obama being assassinated also. After all, he's just a former president and not the sitting president. I think there's merit to that concern.

For myself I'm 'okay with' Trump being assassinated for a reason other than him being a republican president. Someone lost their life savings dumping into trumpcoin and then got rugpulled and wants revenge, or some similar sort of karmic justice for Trump's many moral failings. Less a political assassination, more a personal one.

And yeah obviously I'd rather we weren't talking about a sitting president being assassinated, but when he's this brazenly corrupt and the system is powerless to remove him, of course people are gonna talk about other options.

This applies to any proprietor of a memecoin or just Trump?


Are all proprietors of memecoins the same?

The proprietors all equally fail to guarantee that it's impossible for someone to lose their life savings in them if they really want to.


Oh. But they're different in other ways?

You're saying you're okay with someone personally shooting Trump because they personally lost their life savings, even if they are the die-hardest MAGA who loves the use of the military and DHS, because for example you don't like some random other thing Trump did like attacked Iran in a war with collateral damage that involved a blown up school? Sounds like you want him killed for reasons other than the memecoin.


No you fucking bingbong, I'm saying in the hypothetical where trump were assassinated I'm 'okay with' it if it's a result of his moral failings, an example of which I offered being him launching a memecoin as president.

Too complicated for you. I get it.

You'll get 'em next time, champ.

Odd strawman from my post arguing against him dying in a video game.
I did say softcore porn. Hardcore porn would be saying you think Donald Trump should be assassinated prior to leaving office.

Actually, transitioning from a video game to a Hollywood drama about the perfect election victory has a narrative rhyme that I missed the first time around.

GH is doing what you said, he’s setting up to quote the posts of Sim and Jan, and claim they need to join his revolution or something. The rest of us are just mixing hope and despair.
Small election wins in subsequent elections are the kind of progress we need and can use, and big wins are possible if Iran keeps going the way its going and the tariffs keep killing the economy. I think the morose attitude on what a small win will say about America is puerile.

Nonetheless I’m pretty sure Billyboy nor Simberto expressed no such assassination sentiment, so it feels odd to me to throw it out in a direct reply to them.

I’ve no such compunctions and I’ll admit to that, the sooner the cunt is out of office the better. Given there are seemingly no limits to what his own party will tolerate, and he’s clearly not going to face censure for his many crimes, death is quite the equaliser, something no person can escape.

Would prefer natural causes or a hilarious accident than assassination, which I don’t support.
The softcore assassination porn was more directed at you and simberto ("A much better scenario than assassination in minecraft" as an evaluation of degree). To Billy, it appears that his problem with assassination is martyrdom, not assassination.

I wholly reject that, I’m in the hardcore assassination porn camp, give me some credit.

I don’t think that’s accurate based on Billy’s general posting and what I’ve gleamed from his musing in general. He’s free to speak for himself of course, but contextually I took him to mean ‘assassination is bad, and there may be a martyr effect’, not ‘assassination is bad because there’s a martyr effect’.

And to follow your earlier billionaire logic, not sure why it’s bad really. I think the death of a person would be of a benefit for wider society, what’s the problem? If you support any domestic policy or foreign intervention that so much as kills 2 people well, you’re twice as bad as me right off the block.
Because you're not the only one on the block with ideas on who in society we should kill in order to make society better off.

Perhaps not but my ideas are actually good ones.

We need to set a limit. I'd say all those that rugpulled 1B or more.
