Conservatism is a vile plague of oppression and death. Even a conservative "doctor" can never be trusted.
The conservatives are becoming the brownshirts right before our eyes. Just as they have always done throughout history, conservatives will oppress and kill as many normal people as possible if they are not physically stopped. They will spare no one, not even children.
Understand that your conservative coworkers, neighbors and even family members will betray you. They cannot stop themselves. It is just who they are at their core.
Unfortunately, there has never been a peaceful solution to an uprising of conservatives. Pacifism has never worked to stop them. Be proactive, train and prepare mentally and physically for what's to come.
Only a good conservative can stop a bad conservative.

Your comment needs to be copy and pasted in every article where crazy shit like this is happening. Ever since I watched the latest episode of Last Week Tonight about Project 2025, I haven't been this worried and we all know conservatives are encouraging violence too, but they actually follow through.
The automatic enrollment for the draft really freaked me out. Not even an illusion of choice anymore. A clear step towards fascism. Jesus.
That particular thing is not a big deal, at all. If you're a man, you must register for Selective Service at 18. Been that way since I did it 35-years ago, had to go figure out how to do it manually. Not like you could formerly opt out and just not get drafted. "Well, damn. He's not on the list, guess we can't draft him! Clever bastard."
This change merely automates the process. One less thing for a young man to worry about or get in trouble for.
Agree to disagree. This really shows me that most of the people who protested Vietnam are dead. Not signing up for the draft can be an act of protest. The tiny choice we used to have is now gone.
Still have a choice and a way to fight back. Do what so many did. Head to Canada.
I never stated that it was the only option. The fact that it was taken away is significant, especially because it was a symbolic act of protest rather than an effective act. Aka it didn't even do anything and they still don't like that. Why tf do we even have a draft? If we really need one, we can pass one through the government at that time. It should be retired. It's weird.
