weird how he has been ranting non stop about “radical leftist” judges and their huge conspiracy, and they need to purge them… and then some supporter goes and attacks a judge.
….
kinda exactly like stochastic terrorism and not too hard to prove in courtI hope this judge has a good lawyer!
I think they know a few, they will be fine.
What I don’t understand is, why would we need to wait for someone’s house to be set on fire to make it stick in court? The intent and actions of the stochastic terrorist are still the same.
Our legal system is pretty stupid that way.
in past cases i’ve only heard of it being pursued in civil courts after the fact… feels like there’s something different when talking about judges but he always qualifies his rhetoric…
like “and there’s only one thing left to do, with this giant conspiracy using the law to manipulate the government! (pause) pursue legal action within the guidelines of the law, of course!”.
it seems a lot like he’s implying legal action is pointless and it’s time to do illegal things….
also looking at the director of the fbi and attorney general doesn’t give me hope they’ll pursue this one….There is no law. If you want justice, it won’t be via legal means, those are too badly corrupted to be relied on.
It’s what they want to have happen. They just need it to be blameable on anyone other than violent psychopaths.
Somehow they still think “influencing” the message means “controlling” the message.
How is this not bigger news!
I have to listen to weeks about some random podcaster getting shot, but a judge whose made judgements against trump has their house burned down and everyone is all quite?
Goes against CBS news all Trump slant
“Why are Democrats letting themselves be victims of arson? Here’s why this is bad for Biden”
Because we still don’t have a cause for the fire.This could be arson or it could be a freak accident.
MAGAs always start blaming Libz immediately, we can do the same thing. The thing is, we’re probably going to be right, it’s almost ALWAYS a right-wing whacko.
What does anyone gain by doing so?
Arson is rarely the cause of fires.
But 100% of arson causes fire damage. It’s not like a car, where there’s a purpose other than fire damage.
We should outlaw arson.
Right now no one has any evidence of wrongdoing. The most likely cause if fires is accidents.
While it is possible this was arson we have no reason to assume it is right now.
Fires are rare in general, and the timing of this one is very suspicious.
Ok that still changes nothing. We still have no evidence.
Shhhh with your logical thinking, we need to jump to conclusions and start blaming each other before learning any facts.
I understand what you mean, but my criticism is with the news/reporting.
Weve had multiple democratic politicians be attacked and murdered whose whole time in the spotlight doesn’t cover the media attention that Kirk got.
Hell, we still don’t really know why Kirk was shot.
In this political climate, a judge’s house going up in flames should be a huge story. Sure it could end up being nothing, but so did the story with Kirk.
This is like the guy who shot up the LDS church last week. Everyone is claiming political violence when it turned out he hates Mormons.
Yeah, once people heard his real beef, everyone said “Oh, well, that makes sense. Carry on.”
“We can’t make this a narrative about how trans people are all crazy? Never mind.”
Good Critical Thinking Skills “That alone proves he’s a liberal.”
Terrible coincidence
it could be?
Dems aren’t big on declaring Martyrs.
Dems SUCK ASS at everything, but especially messaging.
To be fair, Kirk’s murder was graphic and in a public event. He was a pretty-well known figure, whereas most people don’t know who this specific judge is. The arson didn’t happen in a packed crowd in broad daylight.
This probably should be bigger news, but is makes sense why it isn’t as widely talked about
Kirk might have caught a stray bullet from a hunter. We can’t just start speculating!
Charlie Kirk just does that sometimes. 🤷🏼♂️
Also my understanding is that as of now it may not be arson
Listen, hear me out.
He caused this. His rhetoric caused this.Stochastic Terrorism, it’s a core MAGA strategy.
Got a week ban from Reddit for saying this guy deserves a swirly. Apparently the threshold for what constitutes as violent rhetoric is super low for these snowflakes.
Reddit got sold to the corpos. It’s a publicly traded company now. That means propaganda is now one of their biggest revenue sources in all likelihood.
Everybody do all you can to get more people from Reddit on here and make more content here on Lemmy for others to engage with
Only people who are cool.
That’s hilarious.
A fucking swirly.
For the Nazi.
Someone I know once said, in a discussion of Trump, that they needed to buy more pins for their voodoo doll. Got banned for threats of violence. Some Reddit admins are unfit to be allowed out on their own in public, let alone to hold a position of even trivial responsibility.
case closed. wrap it up.
How did some production designer think THAT was a good idea?
Because this convention was in the aftermath of Jan 6, and they were scrambling to both normalize insurrection attempts as well as “own the libs.” From that perspective it was a perfect theme. We should ensure the moniker sticks.
Which is why I always say that MAGA will ultimately be destroyed by their own virtuosic incompetence. It’s almost inevitable, they are just too stupid and ignorant to succeed. An eventual fatal fuck up is inevitable.
This is a perfect example. When they should have been running as fast as possible in the opposite direction, they actually thought it was a good idea to double down, and embrace domestic terrorism in the wake of their treasonous insurrection.
In the future, when the PROGRESSIVE Dems take back America, this photo will be a major piece of evidence in establishing MAGA as a treasonous, racist, terrorist hate group. They can’t blame this on Libz, this is their own doing. They freely admitted it, and promoted to America and the World. No walking that one back.
That will allow MAGA to be dismantled, abolished, and prohibited.
I hope you’re right. Repugs could easily succumb to their own stupidity, sure. But it’s a tall task ahead for progressives.
They not only have to beat the corporate dems who presently run the party and also rig the primaries to remain in control, but then they have to go on to beat republicans rigging national elections. All while the corporate media is demagoguing them like it’s the red scare 2.0. With enough people behind them, it can happen, but how to break through to such a downtrodden and heavily propagandized people?
The Nazi regime didn’t implode, despite its incompetence and endless faction-fighting. It took all that, plus vast amounts of military force, to force them out.
Who said anything about Nazis? The Nazis weren’t incompetent, just the opposite, mostly. They knew what the fuck they were doing, that’s why they were so hard to destroy. So hard, in fact, that apparently we didn’t even succeed like we thought we did.
MAGAs are far different. They literally embrace ignorance as a virtue. They will reject intelligent concepts, simply because they are intelligent, or worse, simply because their “opponents” endorse those concepts. MAGAThink is: They are for it, so we are automatically against it, no matter how good an idea it is.
However, every day that passes makes it more and more inevitable that dislodging and crushing MAGA is almost certainly going to take some serious violence. Hopefully we won’t have to bomb entire cities to rubble, like it took for Germany to straighten out.
The wild thing about Stephen Miller is that, even if he never opened his mouth. Even if you had no idea about his politics or his stance on literally anything. You could just look at this guy and think “Yeah…this guy looks like he definitely has an SS uniform in his closet at home.”
He could be a nobody on the street, and you’re a casting director for a big time WW2 film looking for extras to play nazi officers. You see him and you think “My god…he’s perfect.”
Yeah it’s totally true but not a great indicator.
Given how much he “melts down” shouldn’t he look more like trump by now?
He’s 43, but he already looks like he’s in his 60s. I think he’s well on his way.
He’s an unlikable piece of shit but he definitely doesn’t look old.
Just bald, weak, and angry.
He looks like a piece of shit, because anger and hate make people look ugly on the outside.
As much as I wish I could agree, I think he looks more like Patrick Stewart at around the same age (maybe less sunscreen). I mean in a health sense, not in actual attractiveness. Hair loss can happen as early as your 20s if you’re a male.
Evil ages fast but lives forever.
He’s getting there. Dude is a millennial. Looks like he’s in his mid 50s.
If his face wasn’t lifeless and hateful he’d look younger even with the baldness. His skin isn’t wrinkly but his withered soul makes him look half dead.
It’s the dead but still terrified of bullies eyes he has.
He’s looking more like Benny every month. He needs to go back to using GLH by RONCO.
This is all straight out of the third reich playbook
Me thinks he doth complain too much.
Someone please let Stephen miller actually melt down
PeeWee Himmler imagines himself to be a Hitler-style orator, so he melts down all the time, and it’s hilarious. Check out this recent one where he addressed cops going into Memphis.
The whole thing is funny, but the end when he starts convincing himself that they are “ruthless” and “hardcore” is hilarious. He is the absolute archetype of the smarmy coward trying to act tough, and fooling NOBODY. You just know that if he took one punch to the face, he’d collapse like a sack of potatoes, and start crying and begging for mercy.
Himmler or Goebbels?
Goebbels was the propaganda guy, and liked being in charge of the movie industry. Himmler, OTOH, was the guy who wanted to kill every last Jew, and was the architect of the Final Solution.
PeeWee probably greatly admires both psychos, but he definitely has more in common with Himmler.
So it’s PeeWee Himmler. Not sure who the Goebbels is in this administration, maybe Bannon, maybe Leavitt, but neither fully occupies the role. I think it is still to be cast. More candidates may emerge once the Ellisons have fully taken over CBS, and started programming overt MAGA propaganda.
The little nazi puke is scared it will be traced back to him.
If that shitstain isn’t charged with incitement then I quit.
Might as well quit now, then.

Not that you need an article to figure out Stephen Miller is a whiny sack of shit, lol. But still worth acknowledging it on the record 🙂
Oh is he doing that Netanyahu thing where he makes a statement that he didn’t do it while the fire’s still burning?
Precisely that.

PeeWee Himmler
You and me both
I mean if its domestic terrorism then its the usual suspects.
