The motivation behind the French Revolution is becoming more attractive.

I have been screaming for months, that is time to sharpen the guillotines! Let's party like it's France in 1789!

Jude Johnson's avatar

I say we go for 1793. 1789 was the storming of the Bastille. 1793 was when the guillotine was gainfully employed.

Megan Ross's avatar

The storming of the Bastille was the beginning of it all. We need to start somewhere, NOW! We are losing our constitutional republic.

Jude Johnson's avatar

We started with the No Kings last April, grew it in June and October. We started with the Democrats winning almost all of the recent elections. We started with people reporting and recording ICE raids and hounding them in neighborhoods. We already stormed the Bastille. We already threw the tea into Boston Harbor. It's time to kick it into 5th gear.

In true American fashion, we need to bring back tar and feathering a la the "modern jacket".

My head is exploding. So. Let me get this straight. Trump is trying to bribe Greenland citizens (with American taxpayers’ money) to BUY Greenland, by simply accepting the terms of their surrender and giving up their sovereignty as a country. And regardless of how Greenland responds, he’s going to invade and claim it anyway.

And demented donny also used taxpayer funds to invade and take control of Venezuela. Methinks it’s fair to say that he’ll also use taxpayer dollars to pay for repairs on their oil infrastructure. Then he’ll likely share the profits with his oligarch friends. All ya have to do is watch how the stock markets are being manipulated, ah, I mean how they’re responding.

Trump truly envisions himself as “king/authoritarian” of the world”! Trump is an extremely dangerous, vindictive, unfettered criminal, madman, mob boss/gangster, with a chip on his shoulder and something to prove. And if he can’t have what he wants, then he’ll burn the whole thing down.

Donny the devil incarnate WANTS Americans protesting in the streets. So he’ll keep doing exactly what he’s doing right now - lying about what really happened and refusing to allow local authorities to investigate.

This is the prelude to civil war, martial law, interment camps, government shutdown, no midterm elections and WW3.

Geez, those millions of Epstein files must really be doozies!

Leah Baum's avatar

We won’t give dumb 💩 Donny what he wants. Protests must remain peaceful.

Forget about second amendment rights. The first thing a dictator does is not allow the citizens to have firearms for fear we will turn on him.

Merry's avatar

Huh. Thx for your comment. I hadn’t considered that possibility.

But with the country’s overall obsession with guns, and the extraordinary financial influence by the NRA, that puts devious Donny in quite the conundrum.

And there are already millions of guns in the streets. More guns than Americans actually! So a civil war would be bloody and devastating. What a mess. Make him go away! I beseech you! 😳🫤😱🤯

“America's love for guns, in one chart | Vox

There are more guns than people in the U.S., with estimates around 120 guns per 100 residents (1.2 guns per person), making it the highest rate globally, though some newer sources suggest over 1.5 firearms per person. This means there are over 400 million privately owned firearms in the country, with some recent figures pointing to over 500 million, significantly more than the population.”

If a Democrat were in office, you liberals would be supporting every atrocity here and abroad as you happily support imperialism and fascism when a Democrat is the one selling it to you.

Real leftists don't support the democratic party, Reformist/Trotskyist individuals and organizations, the US military and empire, NATO, No Kings, Mamdani, Bernie, AOC, mRNA's, etc. The fact of the matter is that getting rid of Trump and voting in democrats won't solve the problem. That of capitalism. The US was a terrible country long before Trump, nor was the United States a democracy before him, either. This is the harsh reality of it all, which is that the United States can be considered the following: an oligarchy, a corporatocracy, an inverted totalitarianism system, a gerontocracy, a kakistocracy, a kleptocracy, and/or a techno feudalist society. But It is not a democracy, nor is it a republic. Moreover, in a 2014 Princeton Study, it showed that public opinion has a “near-zero” impact on U.S. law.

Typical reactionary response from someone who supports the corrupt bourgeois power structure. You're poorly educated and propagandized on many a topic.

The thing is that I’ve put in the time to develop my critical media literacy and in turn have escaped the peasant mindset. You on the other hand haven't. Currently. You're more comfortable with various lies you've been told and would rather believe in those then to have your understanding of the world shattered. I suggest that instead of making assumptions and whatnot that you put in the time as I have to learn about different things from trustworthy sources, as well as listen to those like myself who have done a majority of the leg work for you by essentially providing you a cheat sheet of information so that you don't have to look things up as much.

Thank you for reporting

Johan's avatar

This is the pattern. When a government escalates abroad, it often pairs that escalation with spectacles of internal cruelty to keep the public disoriented and reactive.

The point is not policy. The point is to normalize fear, redirect attention, and make violence feel routine. What is happening here fits the classic authoritarian playbook: external aggression followed by domestic shock events that drown out scrutiny.

None of this is accidental. It is a strategy of distraction and intimidation, and it will accelerate. The only way to blunt it is to name the pattern clearly and refuse to treat each incident as an isolated outrage. The structure matters more than the headlines.

I agree with you totally...whoever is the mastermind behind ICE and their treatment of immigrants and the activities of their ICE agents knows exactly what they are doing.

RobWhitH's avatar

Stephen Miller. He has obviously closely studied the rise of Hitler and the Nazis in 1930s Germany. The tactics are very similar. The difference between the Germans back then and Americans today is that Germans had no political tradition of democracy. The American political culture is different, with a historical tradition of resistance. The nation itself is a creation of revolution. There is at most 30% of the population that is true blue MAGA, yet they control the Federal Government through gerrymandering and how we elect Presidents and Senators. So we are under the tyranny of the minority right now, and the only way that will change is if the people take back the power to govern as the Founders intended. But people are busy, people might be afraid, but say over and over again to your friends, family and neighbors that a white young mother was executed by the Federal government, by and agent who fired three shots into her head at point blank range. Get their attention. Paint the picture. It could be any one of us at any time. We go down the wrong street. Or go outside to look. Or holding an iPhone. Such is arbitrary lawlessness.

You Democrat supporters said little to nothing about ICE prior to Trump. You're ignorant and propagandized hypocrites who happily support imperialism and fascism when a Democrat is the one selling it to you.

The thing is, liberalism, which you support goes hand in hand with Fascism which you claim to oppose, but you don't. You Democrat supporters are poorly informed and propagandized on many a topic. Unlike you liberals, I have factual and educational material. Moreover, because you haven't developed the skill of critical media literacy, you always seem to assume that those who are reporting factual and educational material are they themselves lying because you simply don't know any better. Only focusing on the terrible things the Republican Party is doing and ignoring what the Democrats do makes you not all that different than the Trump cult. Refer to the information I've collected on my website via my profile regarding the evils of capitalism. Start with the Dialectical Materialism page. While you're there, educate yourself on other topics as well. Oh, and stop assuming and calling everyone a Trump supporter who disagrees with and knows more than you. It's incredibly childish.

In terms of the United States. We must never salute and show respect towards the American flag. The United States was founded on genocide and built with slavery, with the United States empire responsible for countless deaths. The American flag is soaked in blood. The only time to smile when in the presence of the flag is when it's on fire or being torn to shreds. When it comes to holidays like Independence Day, Memorial Day and Veterans Day, that they are not worth celebrating as they are about brainwashing people that the United States is a great country and reinforcing that lie for those who already believe it. These holidays, I would argue, are primarily about selling and reinforcing the lie that service to the United States military industrial complex somehow made the country and that of the world a better place. After you take the time to learn about the history of the United States and its actions, you'll hopefully come to the same conclusion that I have, which is that there is NOTHING honorable about choosing to be a pawn for the military industrial complex in service to the bourgeoisie, or capitalists if you prefer. The fact of the matter is that the United States bullies and terrorizes the rest of the world as it refuses to take care of its own citizens, because of this I can't help but look at the United States' flag in disgust. The ONLY time when it was acceptable to support the troops and that of the military was during WW2. That's it. But even then, the United States didn't win the war. The Soviet Union did. The United States just swooped in at the last minute to do some minor cleanup and took all the credit. Almost immediately after the dust settled, the bourgeoisie wasted no time in stabbing the Soviet Union in the back by spreading anti-communist propaganda to get the public to fear and hate everything that gave power and any resemblance of freedom and prosperity to the proletariat. Now, if you know someone who has "served" and was injured or killed. Don't get mad at me for speaking truth to power. Direct your anger towards the United States government for sending them off to die in a pointless war, conflict, or military operation that the United States instigated. Let me be absolutely clear. Although I disagree with Veterans and military personnel, in general, for their choice to be a willing pawn for the military industrial complex who I feel are undeserving of an honor, that does not mean I hate them. Unless they were participants in war crimes and are proud of slaughtering people, whether directly or indirectly, that's a different story. People who are proud of killing others who wish they could do it over and over again, those are sick and twisted individuals. That caveat aside, I believe everyone deserves to have their needs met with a government that actually cares about the well-being of people both here and abroad. In conclusion, the underlying reason for all these wars and conflicts is that the United States needs oil to back up the petro dollar. Without the dollars influence and buying power, the United States loses most, if not all, of its hegemony and economic stranglehold over others. So, basically, the problem is that of capitalism. With that said, though, by no means does that mean other countries are innocent in their foreign affairs, but the United States is by far the worst. It's not even a contest.

I have neither the means nor the access to kill more than a few dozen ppl in the Republican caucus. But, I have a desire to do so.

My time has been taken up as a caregiver of an almost 82 yo spouse for the past 3 years. On Dec 15, a CT scan revealed cancer that had metastasized. Subsequent tests last week (PET and endoscope) reveal even more spread. He is NOT chemo candidate. Hospice care in his future.

If wishes were horses I would give this cancer to the Orange Monster AND every singlrme member of this corrupt administration…

I’ve never personally watched this kind of thing play out with my own eyes but I’ve watched Trump and his diversions long enough to know that he is a sick, desperate man that will do whatever it takes to hide things and to try to win. He needs to be impeached and charged for his crimes as does his administration.

The unification of opposites which characterizes the commercial and political style is one of the many ways in which discourse and communication make themselves immune against the expression of protest and refusal. ~ Herbert Marcuse (1964), One-Dimensional Man. https://tinyurl.com/2ezzw3d6

Johan's avatar

It is striking how small the moral ambition community really is. Not because the ideas are obscure, but because truly seeing suffering and then accepting responsibility for it carries a real psychological cost. Most people narrow their moral field to whatever is directly in front of them. It is a defense mechanism rather than a lack of compassion. Once you recognize structural cruelty clearly, you cannot unsee it, and once you admit you could act, you also admit you are accountable for not acting. That level of clarity is rare.

History shows that every major moral shift begins with a small group willing to hold that clarity. Abolition, civil rights, early environmentalism, and animal welfare all started with minorities who refused sedation and insisted on agency. The goal is not to make everyone part of the core. The goal is to create a gravitational field strong enough that others eventually move into its orbit. Moral ambition has always been a minority position, but it is the minority that moves the world.

You think Trump will claim Greenland is also a threat to the US because they're also a major source of the fentanyl as were his claims re: Canada, Mexico and Venezuela?

That was the original excuse used to murder all those people in international waters and to bring in all of the US military, before he admitted he just wanted to loot the country.

At it's shortest route, Hans Island, which is held by bother Canada and Greenland is only 3.3 km from Canada. How would bombing a country just a few km from Canada not also effect Canada as well, not to mention that it would be a physical attack on a member of NATO, as Greenland is a Danish territory and is recognized as such by NATO.

I can't see it resulting in anything but WWIII

Margaret B's avatar

Canada will likely close its airspace. That means the US will have to go the long way to get to a realistic point of invasion. Or if we're lucky, the US will fly over Canada anyway and Canada will shoot down airplanes.

I'm too old to be drafted, female, and not healthy enough either, but I would still consider going to the Canadian border and surrendering. Perhaps Canada could use my typing and software skills?

Candace Lucas's avatar

the only thing Greenland exports is fish. They have at least a dozen fisheries.

Debra Lee's avatar

The fact that Greenlanders haven’t been exporting all of the existing resources doesn’t mean thy don’t exist, or that Trump isn’t aware of their existence.

Greenland actually possesses some of the richest stores of natural resources anywhere in the world, e.g., lithium, rare earth elements, etc. and a huge volume of hydrocarbons including oil and gas.

There’s been extensive research into that potential wealth of minerals and hydrocarbon potential by both Denmark and the US, and the The US Geological Survey estimated that onshore northeast Greenland contains around 31 billion barrels of oil-equivalent in hydrocarbons – which is similar to the US’s entire volume of proven crude oil reserves.

So Trump knows this and we all know how Trump feels, and what actions he’s likely to take, when it comes to oil, and other money making resources.

Sandra L Sychak's avatar

Greenlands resources are why Trump wants it. He has to be the most selfish person to ever exist ! I believe he’s planning on taking South America for himself as well. He’s mentioned a few of the countries. But we know he’s a dirty bastard ! He wants everything ! I’m expecting Trump to mention Russia at some point. If he manages to live that long. Maybe Putin will have Trump executed 🤞. There’s Trump and a few other dictators plotting to overthrow the planet? Putin wants Greenland as well ! How’s that going to work out ? This is all so insane!

Debra Lee's avatar

I agree. It's all about looting as many $$$ making resources as possible, from as many countries as possible. Not for the US, but for himself and his closest billionaire buddies.

Putin might have to stand in line behind Iran's Ali Khamenei and I'm sure there are many others.

I worry less about Putin than Trump when it comes to Greenland. His war against Ukraine showed how much weaker Russia is than anyone expected and they're even weaker now and definitely much poorer. I don't think he could afford to buy the weapons he needs to invade Greenland and Xi seems to be tired of lending him $$$, though the latter could be an act. Who knows with those guys.

Sandra L Sychak's avatar

Important history reminder here. Thank you. MLK Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi are my north star. We need to be wise, nonviolent, informed and use our heads.

[And in the election run-up as GOP fears of voters increase.] The Senate advanced a resolution Thursday that would limit President Donald Trump’s ability to conduct further attacks against Venezuela, sounding a note of disapproval for his expanding ambitions in the Western Hemisphere. Democrats and five Republicans voted to advance the war powers resolution on a 52-47 vote and ensure a vote next week on final passage. It has virtually no chance of becoming law because Trump would have to sign it if it were to pass the Republican-controlled House. Still, it was a significant gesture that showed unease among some Republicans. AP, 8-Jan-26 https://tinyurl.com/3ys4mnt4

They have to include Greenland in, Mexico 🇲🇽 Canada 🇨🇦.. Colombia 🇨🇴 Denmark has Cuba 🇨🇺. ERC. This mother fucker needs to be stopped by being dragged by his toupee out of the White house and kick him in the face while at it. Put him in prison for the criminally insane.

Out of all these fuckers, I truly hate her the most. So many to top the list, but I just can't stand seeing her smug cosplaying " I wanna be important face". A truly despicable waste of O2.

Hopefully they in Greenland tell him to fu*k off and take his money somewhere else. I think this is what he meant when said he might “buy”Greenland.

Plus that is pennies for what should be offered.

Doesn't Congress have the purse strings??? How is Trump moving billions of dollars around for war funding, ICE, trying to buy out Greenland? Someone needs to do a forensic accounting of where all of OUR tax dollars are going.

sadly congress is republican dominated, which in turn is controlled by rump

If a Democrat were in office, you liberals would be supporting every atrocity here and abroad as you happily support imperialism and fascism when a Democrat is the one selling it to you.

Real leftists don't support the democratic party, Reformist/Trotskyist individuals and organizations, the US military and empire, NATO, No Kings, Mamdani, Bernie, AOC, mRNA's, etc. The fact of the matter is that getting rid of Trump and voting in democrats won't solve the problem. That of capitalism. The US was a terrible country long before Trump, nor was the United States a democracy before him, either. This is the harsh reality of it all, which is that the United States can be considered the following: an oligarchy, a corporatocracy, an inverted totalitarianism system, a gerontocracy, a kakistocracy, a kleptocracy, and/or a techno feudalist society. But It is not a democracy, nor is it a republic. Moreover, in a 2014 Princeton Study, it showed that public opinion has a “near-zero” impact on U.S. law. Furthermore, it's important to note that the constitution isn't designed to serve the people as a whole. 📕 Book Recommendation: We the Elites: Why the US Constitution Serves the Few by Robert Ovetz.

They have to get past Canadian maritime and air space to get to Greenland.

Unfortunately Canada does not have nearly enough military strength to stop the U.S. military from invading Greenland or even Canada. We Canadians feel extremely vulnerable right now 🇨🇦 🙏 🙏 !

I wish the American military would honor their oath and arrest the whole trump regime

Which I am glad for. I just wish someone would help us US citizens out of this nightmare.

You can help yourselves. March in the streets. Demand recall of Reps in states that permit recall. Pester your senators to impeach the entire administration. Demand your mayor direct city police to charge ICE agents. Boycott all suppliers of ICE, Fox News. Donate to the ACLU. And for God's sake, show up for the midterms.

There's also a protest against Big Oil. Like the Tesla protests, it will occur in flash boycotts ("Don't buy gas on such and such date) and protesters showing up at stations like Chevron and Citgo.

Dee Joy's avatar

I wish Canada, Mexico and Europe would join together and take over America. 95% of Americans would join them.

And let's remember this! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

The Declaration of Independence establishes the right to revolution as the people's right to alter or abolish a government that becomes destructive to their unalienable rights, such as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. The document argues this right and duty to overthrow a government is justified when a "long train of abuses and usurpations" demonstrates a design to reduce the people under "absolute despotism".

Core principles

Unalienable rights: The Declaration posits that governments are created to secure these rights, and when a government becomes destructive to them, the people have the right to change it.

Social compact: It is based on the social contract theory, where the people create a government to protect their rights. If the government fails, the people are free to form a new one.

Justification for revolution: The right is not to be exercised lightly, but is a necessary last resort when a government has engaged in a pattern of abuse aimed at establishing tyranny. The text famously states, "prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes".

Grievances as justification

The Declaration lists specific grievances against King George III to demonstrate that the British government was tyrannical and had violated the social compact.

Examples of these abuses include imposing taxes without consent, denying trial by jury, quartering troops, and obstructing justice.

Influence and legacy

The Declaration's principles, including the right to revolution, have been a foundation for American resistance and the pursuit of equality in the centuries since.

Activists, such as those at the Seneca Falls Convention, and leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. have invoked the Declaration's ideals to advocate for rights for marginalized groups, including women and African Americans.

Beautifully said. But of course this is exactly what the Trump machine has convinced MAGA is their calling: "If the government fails, the people are free to form a new one." That is what he has said he is doing.
