A lot of what needs to be done is making sure that the Harris win is large enough that you can’t easily claim that a handful of ballots should be tossed and change the outcome. That means:
- Check your voter registration — part of the Republican strategy has long been invalidating registrations so people can’t vote
- Volunteer — nothing in the world quite like talking to people.
- Donate — money is used for everything from ads to voter turnout operations
- Organize; be prepared to turn out with others in your community to actively object to any effort to ignore your votes
I may not want their coup, but they have the same rights as any other citizen, including a speedy and public trial, and not being subject to cruel and unusual punishments.
The right to a speedy trial is an absolute joke in this country. But in this case I’d like them to actually get it because it means they’ll be in prison faster.
Speedy is relative. It’s in response to monarchies which would, if they didn’t like you but didn’t have a case against you, lock you up “pending trial” for the rest of your life. The point was just to prevent that.
Good thing that, uh, doesn’t happen anyway. At Guantanamo Bay for instance.
Is it cruel and unusual to exile them to a country that already has the system of government they’re trying to implement?
Definitely unusual. Prison is good enough.
Tolerance goes both ways
Edit: for those downvoting. I’m saying fuck being nice to seditionist terrorists
Not really, check out the Intolerance Paradox. It is damaging to society to tolerate the intolerant.
So, tolerance should really only go one way: Towards the disadvantaged and needy.
All the billionaire fuccbois ruining our government deserve zero tolerance for their immoral and illegal ways.
That’s exactly the nature of my comment. OP is saying we should be fair and I say fuck being tolerant to them since they would not hesitate to deny us the same right
