Don't point out that we still dont know the party affiliation of the "bomber"
Doesn't matter. Even if it's a Bernie Bro by the time that's discovered the narrative will already be set in stone.
#MAGABomber most likely a mental, stupid, lone 60yr old Trump supporter, not realizing the damage he is doing to Trump. BUT because Eric Holder is on the bomb list (people that spoke out against Trump [2 weeks ago]), the #MAGABomber is a recent thing. Hence, the bombs made in haste. In haste there will be lots of mistakes and forensic evidence to get the guy. So if #MAGABomber is not found soon, then one has to consider the false flag idea, as though the event was done in haste no mistakes were made - Democratic operatives at play.
This may clip the Trump rhetoric as well. If he speak out now, he will be seen as encouraging terror. Deflates the "Jobs not Mobs" narrative. Democrats may have played this well. But we shall see as this story unfolds.
This is perhaps the exact flip side of the GOP baseball shooting last year. A lone actor inflamed by rhetoric. This is nothing to get political points for. It's time for partisans on both sides to figure out how to keep from getting so personal.
I wish the charcaturing of fellow Americans would stop.
The left charcature fundamentalists christians and Appalachia
The right charcatures trans and brown people
@DrYuriMom ... wishful thinking. It will only get worse. Pandora's box has been opened.
Can we please recognise we're all Americans
I'm a filthy foreigner :^)
Social Media is the conduit. I wonder how long governments can allow free speech.
Free speech is up to the public, ultimately
Free speech was ok before, as the "people" had no megaphone, so could be tolerated. This is no longer true.
Again, free speech is only up to the government if the American people allow it. The point of the setup is that the government promises not to interfere with the public on [List of Rights Here] and in return the public does not attempt to forcibly overthrow them
Yours and my opinions don't matter. Governments can not allow people on megaphones to sway public opinions. This was previously done by selected journalists that could help control the narrative. They have lost control ... they need to get it back, regardless of whether it is right or wrong.
The EU understands this and is quickly silencing the megaphones.
It's not a matter of opinion. That's why the US system works the way it does
EU citizens have no reliable method of fighting back, US citizens do
I'm 47 years old so I very well remember life before ubiquitous internet
I cut my teeth on Fidonet
US citizens will soon loose this. It is inevitable. Please note that I am just saying what will happen, not that I agree with it.
I remember watching Tianenmen Square happen in near real time from reports at the source.
I was a child pre broadband
@TraderPropShop then the US citizenry has allowed it to happen
I honestly thought the internet would bring us all together since we'd all have access to the same information and could all talk it out in one big forum.
The internet is too powerful of a tool for the common people, governments will have to curb it or anarchy will come - there justification of course.
Again, not saying I agree.
Just what will happen.
I don't buy that dichotomy tbh
But instead of people taking all this information and forming similar conclusions. People instead took thier conclusions and formed similar information.
It is just my prediction, it is already happening.
I'm still feeling gobsmacked at how it happened this way
People were consolidating power pre-internet my dude
If you allow people to accumulate power, they will attempt to. If you allow them to step over you to do so, they will
Congress will never allow free "megaphone" speech. They will say it is crying fire in a theater.
In 1946 veterans liberated a ballot box in TN with weapons that had just been used, en masse, in the recent world war. Today you cannot own a modern automatic as a civilian
Fire in a crowded theatre isn't a legal precedent
It was struck down forty years ago, approx.
And it's another example of govt consolidation of power
