It's now obvious that our military, police, judges, etc will back a dictatorship over the constitution.

Biden told them, and we all hoped this wouldn't happen. But now the military and police are against the population and the constitution. They listen to their superiors, who are breaking the law, and judges are keeping the lanes clear.

1. That's been obvious for a very, very long time.

*waves arms in wide motions*

Remember the 2000s? The 1970s? The 1940s? The 1910s?... (need I keep subtracting generations?)

3. right

People obviously are free to think what they want, but for me this has been the forgone conclusion all along.

[MadameButterfly]

2. Can you cite reasons for this conclusion?

I'm not saying whether you are wrong. But this is a blanket statement based on what? There is a lot happening.

8. L.A. protests (this post is of course my feeling on the matter).

4. I don't buy this

The judiciary appears to be holding.

The performance of the Army troops while “marching” (sic) yesterday was close to malicious compliance imo. The ranks that were walking were almost deliberately out of step, the tank folks were hilariously waving to the crowds - on one tank a female soldier was casually draped across the top like she was sunbathing.

After the disaster at Fort Bragg I was pleasantly surprised to see the attitude yesterday. If nothing else, it looked like the Army wasted less than an hour practicing for this

[Redleg]

6. I noticed this too

The troops were certainly not marching as sharply as I would have expected. I wondered about the malicious compliance aspect.

[canetoad]

9. Yes they were!

Deliberately out of step, I mean. I watched a few clips of marchers and they didn't look like a precision marching troupe - barely in a line; soldiers wearing different footwear etc.

5. I think you are seeking confirmation and ignoring many signs that run counter to your claim. . . . nt

7. Trumpco has lost something like 90% of court cases this year

And the soldiers at Fort Bragg were picked for maga.
