Sorry, pro-choice lesbian witches, you're just not our number one threat any more...
Bachmann anticipated criticism of her theory.
"You say, 'Aren't you a little overheated? Isn't this melodramatic?'" Bachmann said. "This is exactly what a communist revolution looks like. They think they're going to do it by electing Joe Biden and then once Joe Biden is elected, they think that these Davos, Switzerland, meetings that go on, they think that what they're going to do is have the United States' economy collapse, move to a digital currency globally, and then we move into a global-type government. I mean, it's bizarre, but this is their goal."

(36,221 posts)Bachmann is a perfect example of why there is no common ground anymore, why there can be no meaningful dialog between the two side. When one side has gone completely off the deep end, where do you meet? They're not coming back to the middle & I'm not going to the right. What do we do? Flip a coin for who gets the west side of the country and who get the east side?

(6,281 posts)Percentage of the population (estimates)
Transgender = 0.6%
Black = 13.4%
Marxist = 40 % (Hard to believe but it's a measure on folks that agree with Marx on any one single issue vs. the entirety of his philosophy...so let's use it for now.
US pop = about 315 million.
So we're talking about 100,000 people taking over the country???? Really ?????
That's like saying "The employees of Arby's are taking over the country" or "Half of Target's workforce is taking over the country"...or "A third of Starbucks barristas are taking over the country".
What a dipshit.
Sorry - just had to do this to vent and not scream about just how crazy the crazy is in this one.

(2,636 posts)If you go to the Antifa website, which doesn't actually exist, and read their matierials, which don't actually exist, they're derived from Big Scary Communists of the 1950s.
On the off chance that ther are marauding hordes of "transgender, black Marxists," how many do you think exist in the entiree world? 8? 10?
blah, blah, blah, Marxist. Blah, blah, blah, Black. Blah, blah, blah, Trangender. Blah, blah, blah, Communist....
I'm over 50, and not one of those words scares me at at. THe 1950s are long dead and over.
A communist revolution looks like frightened,out of shape middle aged white guys playing tin soldier? Looks like peaceful protestors shot by cops in tha back or teenagers living in a video game fantasy?
They ahve no policies to point to , just straw men to attack that have nothing to do with any of the problems in the US.
Why do we even have to listen to her?
