When you want elected officials to hear your concerns, you are a domestic terrorist.

When they want to intimidate elected leaders from carrying out lawful processes, they are simply "Anti-Kavanaugh protestsers take over the Senate Office Bldg. atrium on Capital Hill." https://t.co/gqDMAxahaS

Trump put out a video telling the protesters to go home. Gets a comms cut, Twitter and Facebook timeout.

Did any prominent democrat tell the BLM rioters to stop burning shit down, or did they pour gas on it.

There was a coup alright, it's just not the one being reported.
Yes, and the GOP continues to play their role as outer party controlled opposition. Washington Generals doing what the Washington Generals do.

At this point we see clearly Trump never held power. There's a giant power vacuum in the US right now, he failed to fill it.

That vacuum isn't going away. Those 75M MAGA voters aren't going to disappear.

The crackdown to come will only inflame tensions. This is just beginning.
Months of burning cities, billions in property damage and looting. Politicians, celebs ran fundraisers to help them post bail. They executed a MAGA in Portland. Cops, politicians, military literally bent the knee to them.
But you? "Experts, lawmakers call mob... domestic terrorists."

These people do not have the high ground, they just have the megaphone, and they NEVER punch left.

Our elected reps ALWAYS punch right, rarely punch left.

REALLY MAEKS THINK! 🤔
The fact that Trump ever got elected (and RE-ELECTED, if not for fraud) was a shot across the bow of the Regime. That he could have happened shows their weakness. That they pull out all the stops, nuclear options to stop us shows their weakness. They will clamp down shortterm.
They can't keep this shitfest together indefinitely. When Stacey Abrams' sh'boon squad is in charge, do you think they'll have the requisite competence to be able to project power into the hinterlands? They already can no longer project military power into the Western Pacific.
Regarding a clampdown, they were ALWAYS going to punish us uppity Amerikaners for electing Trump. You think they needed yesterday as justification to do what they already have been doing?

Trump was always a moonshot. He always believed in the system, right to the end.

My advice? Squad up and make frends, get out of reach from their petty tyranny, disobedience whenever and wherever possible, buy BTC, live locally.

Create pockets of competence outside the system.
Remember that in times of great churn, there is also TREMENDOUS opportunity for the bold.

The fun times are just getting started.

MDZS is laden with buddhist references. As a South Asian person, and history buff, it is so interesting to see how Buddhism, which originated from India, migrated, flourished & changed in the context of China. Here's some research (🙏🏼 @starkjeon for CN insight + citations)

1. LWJ’s sword Bichen ‘is likely an abbreviation for the term 躲避红尘 (duǒ bì hóng chén), which can be translated as such: 躲避: shunning or hiding away from 红尘 (worldly affairs; which is a buddhist teaching.) (

2. Sandu (三 毒), Jiang Cheng’s sword, refers to the three poisons (triviṣa) in Buddhism; desire (kāma-taṇhā), delusion (bhava-taṇhā) and hatred (vibhava-taṇhā).

These 3 poisons represent the roots of craving (tanha) and are the cause of Dukkha (suffering, pain) and thus result in rebirth.

Interesting that MXTX used this name for one of the characters who suffers, arguably, the worst of these three emotions.

3. The Qian kun purse “乾坤袋 (qián kūn dài) – can be called “Heaven and Earth” Pouch. In Buddhism, Maitreya (मैत्रेय) owns this to store items. It was believed that there was a mythical space inside the bag that could absorb the world.” (TWX)
First thread of the year because I have time during MCO. As requested, a thread on the gods and spirits of Malay folk religion. Some are indigenous, some are of Indian origin, some have Islamic


Before I begin, it might be worth explaining the Malay conception of the spirit world. At its deepest level, Malay religious belief is animist. All living beings and even certain objects are said to have a soul. Natural phenomena are either controlled by or personified as spirits

Although these beings had to be respected, not all of them were powerful enough to be considered gods. Offerings would be made to the spirits that had greater influence on human life. Spells and incantations would invoke their


Two known examples of such elemental spirits that had god-like status are Raja Angin (king of the wind) and Mambang Tali Arus (spirit of river currents). There were undoubtedly many more which have been lost to time

Contact with ancient India brought the influence of Hinduism and Buddhism to SEA. What we now call Hinduism similarly developed in India out of native animism and the more formal Vedic tradition. This can be seen in the multitude of sacred animals and location-specific Hindu gods
