    OW3 Our planet’s resources are finite.

    We keep hearing this over the centuries and normally the claim is starvation is just a few years/decades around the corner.

    OW4 There are labor strikes, sit-ins, boycotts, and, yes, smashed windows and Nazi punching. But if it is to persuade a meaningful number of people to consent to such tactics, much less adopt them, the Resistance has to show itself as a true movement, one worthy of the name it carries and more meaningful to the people who are participating.

    From the link: Two years on, it remains self-evident that the Trump presidency poses a grave threat to democracy, nonwhite people, and even our ability as human beings to inhabit the planet.

    Trump currently has a body count of zero, maybe less than zero if we assume a President HRC would have expanded various wars.

    So clearly the answer to that must be violent resistance? The left really needs Nazis to justify its existence, that’s not a good thing.

    From Link: The only groups he has not alienated are white evangelicals and alt-right neo-Nazis.

    And there we go. Only Nazis and serious bible thumpers back Trump.

    From Link: …what has truly animated the Resistance is disdain for Trump’s character. He is a bully who insults and condescends to people with whom he disagrees, or who insufficiently praise him. He lies, blatantly and frequently, in a way that is either pathological or part of a convoluted strategy for manipulating the truth. He speaks in incoherent sentence fragments and never resists an opportunity to brag, even when his self-adulation is based on partial or complete falsehoods. Trump is, in short, not presidential.

    That’s it? No claims of mass graves? I’m shocked at the honesty.

    Trump is an epic *******. And from there we jump to “the world is ending” comparisons and even attempts to justify violence.Report
