Was This What the Righties Wanted All Along?

by Goldy — Thursday, 10/9/25, 1:24 pm

I sometimes think back to my 20-year-old arguments with the local righties at (un)Sound Politics (by far the dominant political blog in WA state before HA kicked its ass), and I wonder: Is this what they wanted?

Screenshot of tweet describing our slide into fascism.

I mean, hey, Stefan and company, they won. Republicans control the House, the Senate, the White House, and the Supreme Court, and they are using that power to prosecute political enemies, kidnap immigrants (and immigrant-looking citizens if they choose to), send troops into peaceful cities, and threaten the arrest of Democrats who oppose them. Republicans are in the process of establishing a one-party authoritarian state.

So I kinda wish my old rivals were still around so that I could ask them if they are feeling any regrets about their contributions to the GOPer cause? Or is destroying the Constitution okay with them as long as they own the libs?

    Why it took so long for this reality to set in is remarkable.

    I told my neighbors the day after the election and my nephew before the election that this is the plan.

    What part of Dictator (Nazi) don’t we understand.

    Dumbfuck Troll thinks Vance is running in 2028… maybe, but only if Donnie croaks 🐸 first.

    The constitution, along with the American flag, is just a prop.

    Wise up.

    One would think (((Goldy))) would have something to say about this:
    Opinion
    Editorial Board

    Donald Trump and peace in the Mideast
    This Gaza peace plan may actually hold. The president’s unorthodox deal-making style deserves credit.

    The announcement that Israel and Hamas have agreed to President Donald Trump’s plan to end the two-year war in Gaza could be the biggest diplomatic achievement of his second term. Indeed, if the deal holds, Trump can legitimately bolster his claim to be a peacemaker worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize.

    But not this year. This year the Nobel committee has decided to award the Peace Prize a second time to Barack Obama.

    Donald Trump cannot receive the Nobel Peace Prize because Hamas will nearly immediately violate the terms of the ceasefire agreement it has signed, and therefore there will be no peace.

    Which will, of course, be entirely Israel’s fault.

    Hamas will

    never agree to disarm. Armed resistance to occupation is legal under international law.

    entirely Israel’s fault.

    Israel supported Hamas when it needed Hamas. Like the United States at one time supported occupation resistance fighters like Osama bin Laden or adversary antagonists like Saddam Hussein.

    I’m sure whatever deal was made that Israel will not hold up to their end, and Donnie’s negotiations arent honest.

    Once the hostages are released they’ll be fighting again.

    What happen to your FINISH THEM stance? You like peace now? You’re scum.

    Dang watching Cubs vs. Brewers at Wrigley.

    Place is packed. Fans are screaming.

    No doubt because all those fans are scared to death of the “violent criminals” orange pants shitting dear leader is saving them from with a military occupation.

    “Violent criminals” like a mom picking her kid up from school – looks too Hispanic.. err.. violent.
