Beyond the very good points already made about it being illegal for them to strike and they could immediately lose all ability to work anywhere in the federal government again, it's imperative you remember the point of DOGE is to get rid of the federal government. Elon and his kiddies are looking for an excuse to close down entire departments of government. If one of them went on strike, they could simply declare that all of them are fired for felony activity and never refill their positions.
Striking in this case is the same as quitting, and none of them want to give in and let their government die. It's the same reason no one is taking the voluntary severance. They're fighting for their government as best they can from where they are. It's all of our job out here to rescue them
Trump is definitely stupid enough to do it without understanding anything. The only question is whether someone with an actual brain can get to him before he tweets about it. Because the second he says it publicly, his narcissistic ego will only allow him to double down regardless of what it does to the US or him personally. Ideally someone would float the idea to him on air
Yeah, seriously. They can fuck right off with that one. They don't own the community. You get to be a part by contributing. It's up to the community whether you're let in or no. Log Cabin morons think they own us already
Yeah. Not even Texans buy that crap. The only way out of the US for any state is through an ocean of blood.
And Vermonters. It's also a fuck you to the state that hates Trump the most.
I mean, I get the idea that it's easier to do this sort of thing at scale with this technology, but there are already entire sophisticated corporations overseas dedicated solely to phishing at scale already using ultra cheap labor so like ... Is anything really going to change other than those scam companies going out of business due to grassroots competition? I don't really see how this changes anything other than the labor budget of phishing companies.
Not true. The system suppresses third parties. It doesn't stop them. Parties fall in the US just like everywhere else. When was the last time you spoke to a US whig? Or a Jeffersonian Republican? The system in place when those parties fell was exactly the system we have now. It just takes a massive popular effort and a period of severe political turmoil where the country is heavily divided along party lines and a large portion of the country feels entirely disenfranchised (ideally about a 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 split between the two parties and people fed up or greater). Happened at the revolution. Happened at the civil war. Happened at the great depression. Guess where we are now? Don't let yourself fall for the lie that the party is eternal. We're on the knive's edge now. It's time to push
Despite what the media wants us to think, both parties are wildly unpopular with their own voters and are primed for collapse. Literally all of the conditions historically needed for social revolution have been met
Genuine question because you absolutelyalready took the time out of your day to clarify the intent with your parenthetical at the end there: is this an ego thing? Like what is it about tone indicators like "/s" that you hate so deeply that you feel the need to go out of your way to create a bespoke, alternate tone indicator which was 10x longer and 100x whiny-er? Where did these feelings come from? Clearly you understand that they're needed, so why do you persist in this nonsense?
