A few people have asked things like, "when was the last time it was this bad" etc. The Sixties https://g.co/kgs/NtCEFM The CNN documentary series on the 60s, 70s, and 80s are worth watching for some easy-to-digest history. If you've ever wondered about the events surrounding Nixon or why conservatives think Reagan is such a messianic character, the series dive into it. I liked them a lot and each episode is stand-alone. They're up on Netflix and the 90s series is supposed to come out this year.

Anyone have any reputable links about Bannon's Troskyism and hope for destruction of the country? One of my more normal right wing friends is interested in learning about it and I can't find it with how fast this thread is updated.

Isn't the "Banon is a Leninist" thing entirely based on one thing he said that was basically just him saying he wanted to create a new order? Like I don't think he actually agrees with anything Lenin believed at all.

I'm not sure if he decided to go with the Lenin analogue because he's a dope, or rather if choosing a more appropriate comparison would have tipped too many people off to his ultimate goals.

Lots of dudes on the far right admire Lenin for his ability to destroy the state and remake it in his own image; neoconservatives basically saw themselves in the same light. If the 49ers stole a page out of the Giants playbook and used it to win, it's because they saw a tactical end to winning a strategic objective, not because they wanted to be the Giants.

Probably gonna go with the latter, since you can't really say "I admire Hitler" and have any future in politics. Lenin... ehhhhh.

Most protesters are not being paid. But paid protesters is a thing. I've seen it done from the paying side.

I'm more concerned about them using ~cyber weapons~ that we most assuredly have in their power systems and industrial controls to brick the country. It's way less messy than saying OMG NUKES and much more likely given that the Trumpenfuhrer doesn't understand anything related to computers. I remember reading back when Stuxnet was a thing that bricking the entire power/water systems for the greater Tehran area would kill like millions of civilians. Plus, it opens pandora's box for real on ~cyber weapons~ so maybe that lovely NBC show might actually come to reality.

Yeah, UFCW was hiring 'professional activists' to picket Walmart's I also remember that the picketers were getting $9/hour, while the actual Walmart employees were making $10-12/hour.

We also got training on how the chain was partially still alive because of old people, so be especially careful not to piss them off, even if they are slow as hell and make ridiculous demands.

Yeah I was in UFCW as well when I worked at Safeway in highschool. We didn't have to endure any propaganda, but having to pay the dues really sucked when was only making $5.15 an hour to begin with.

Although the union rep got my job back promptly when I got fired for not working in lieu of going to school.
