Whoever added the citations to this is doing extremely important work. It needs to be finished though.

Be the change you want to see in the world

These kinds of projects are good for crowd sourcing. Nobody has read all 900 pages, and watched all the speeches and read all the articles, etc etc. But the community taken together, can. Or at least come much closer anyway.

Except that those page numbers don't all seem to match those statements.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

Yeah, it'll be important to check the work.

How is continue to pack the supreme court "happening rn"? I wish Biden was doing that but...

[–] [email protected] 39 points 4 months ago

I've said it many times, I wish the boogeyman Democratic party that exists in Republicans' fevered imaginations was real. They get shit done.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Assuming the poster meant "Get SCOTUS to engage in our fuckery"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Meaning federalist society continue to pack in next republican term... They are at least kavanaugh, gorsuch and barret - and leonard leo facilitates thomas's date night weekend getaways +++ with the billionaire oligarch.

I’ve been skimming through the listed page numbers so maybe I missed it but where in pg 545-581 does it talk about “[ending] marriage equality”? That whole section seems to be talking about the FBI and DOJ

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Are you going by the page numbers on the pdf file, or at the bottom of the page? There’s several blank pages so they don’t match up

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

I’ve been trying actual page numbers since those are what matched up at first

Edit: I haven’t extensively gone through it all yet. Are they mixed between page numbers and pdf page numbers?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Not sure, I’m going to dig through it some more later.

I will say this guide cites page 449 a few times but I didn’t see where it actually says any of the stuff in the guide on page 449. I haven’t fully read it yet.

This is what's killing me. When our 'news' turns out to look like propaganda, it hurts our cause. There is enough bad. It doesn't need to be exaggerated.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Exactly this. If the pages listed do not support the claims it helps Trump in the end.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Lmao, how does they slipped "defund the police" there on plain sight

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 months ago

Defund Police when used by left is a poorly named refrain for "police reform".

When MAGA uses it they mean "defund police literally so that we can't get charged with shit, and the ghettos get worse."

The graphic doesn't say defund the police that I see.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The FBI and DHS are federal police.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Are they? If so.... cool semantics, you pain in the ass?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The FBI is literally the federal equivalent to state police. So anything that violates federal rather than state law or involves a crime crossing state lines.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago

0% of people (who aren't idiots grasping at straws on social media) refer to the FBI as the police.
