The funny thing is, it's a conservative county. If it's right wing terrorism, they're shooting themselves in the foot.

In land space I guess. We're certainly more conservative than like Denmark.

Jwb was dismissive of the idea of a trans genocide and who knows, man, but this does look like a potential step.

Texas sought gender change data on drivers licenses, report says

um to be fair in the same convo you flat out said Tim Pool and crowder types wouldn't entertain the talk of Jewish bankers etc on their platforms and that is precisely what went on to happen within like a weeks time.

We were talking about degrees of rhetoric and while the last week has been wild neither has said anything like

"The Jews control the media.

People are calling for violence.

I don't think Congress is going to stop the control of the media.

People will not stop calling for violence.

You tell me what happens next."

As far as I know just a random tweet that was circulating that was taken as potentially claiming credit.

There wasn't a specific analog to that word for word tweet but crowder basically said Kanye isn't completely wrong about the Jews and many are basically doing the "well it's not all Jews but there is this nefarious left wing Jewish mob..." Point being you are being super pedantic in trying to pretend like the gulf in rhetoric between the two is so massive because of one ****ing Tim pool tweet that you seem to think is so above and beyond everything else that has happened apparently...

With Jews they're in the "just asking questions" phase. It's ****ed up but they're still not crossing the line of justifying anti-Jewish violence and afaik there isn't any modern history of anti-Jewish legislation or lawmaker rhetoric to go along with it.

Um that Tim pool tweet is also in the "just asking questions" phase. It's literally framed as a nefarious sounding open ended question. That's the only way you can do this ****. He would be taken off the air in a heartbeat if he dropped the pretense and just said he supports the violence.
