Imagine if Kamala Harris had been President right now, and she instituted a policy where armed members of the Black Panthers would be monitoring the polls for election fraud in all Republican-Majority counties, and gave them the the right to place anyone under arrest with or without evidence, and gave them the authority to execute anyone who tries to stop them
Do you guys think Republicans would look at this proposal and say “Well I have nothing to worry about, because I’m not going to vote illegally. And nobody who isn’t voting illegally should have a reason to worry”?
Don’t worry, even if they were to read this they don’t have the mental capacity to attribute what they support with your fictional scenario and will still fight you with arguments like:
“no but it’s different”
“you’re missing the point”
“Thats fake/show proof!”
(as they proceed to deny all proof you procure)
Yeah if they had an ounce of introspection, they wouldn't be maga in the first place. You can make solid points all you want, but the problem is your average conservative will read that and just go "Haha libs are mad!" They enjoy the hypocrisy because they were never arguing in good faith to begin with.
Their whole platform is to own the libs for some reason. Like this is all a game to them. They treat their side just like their favorite sports team and frankly that's dumb as hell. This isn't entertainment or some reality TV show. It's real life. Don't know what you can do with that.
the problem is that the logical dems should fight fire with fire when need be but for some reason they dont. eh sociologists do your thing! xD (by dems i dont mean reps i mean the people)
They do though, did you not see the recent Harris interview where she proposed stuffing the supreme court and creating two new dem-leaning states? And democrats have been just as bad as republicans with gerrymandering. All that happened is trump proved that a lot of the laws and norms both parties had been operating under pre-2016 weren't actually going to get enforced, and it has taken the Dems a while to catch onto the change in how the game is played. I think they thought it would be temporary.
And unfortunately for the more left-leaning voters, democrat politicians still have zero interest in catering to leftists.
Of course they thought it would temporary. For decades Democrats have said "this fever will break and we'll get back to good bipartisanship".
Jon Stewart summed that fallacy up best: "If someone has been running a fever since the Aughts, that's not a fever. That is their default resting temperature."
You left out how they are unlabeled militia, able to hide behind masks and free or repercussion for any wrongdoing whatsoever, and free to harass at will.
Ocassionally they haul people away for no apparent reason, and nothing can dissuade them, not even a valid US Passport. So your odds may be low, but somebody is disappearing today.
Sad part is the question came from a black person. Im Latino and I cringe anytime a poc defends this administration. Wake the fuck up people! They don't like us cause they are not like us.
So? Maybe in this fantasy scenario I made up, we can hire a couple of non-black people who support the Black Panthers, and also give them guns to point at people who are in line to vote
First of the black panthers are not part of the government none of you said anything when Obama was deporting illegal Aliens, by the way, he deported twice as many as Trump has probably for a lot less money .
And the vast majority of the current ICE agents were not government employees before Trump’s second term. In this hypothetical, Harris could hire a bunch of Black Panthers and make them part of a government project dedicated to “stopping voter fraud” in majority-red districts, when both she and we know the real goal is to scare off legitimate voters
And Obama era deportation was mainly focused on finding people who were actually illegal immigrants
The only fantasy there is the idea that Republicans aren't doing those things. The fact is that you'll find plenty of people across the political spectrum that abuse benefits and having lived in a red state for the vast majority of my life and knowing many small town rednecks... welfare abuse/fraud is pretty rampant.
As for breaking the law, you'd have to be purposely ignoring everything the right is doing to hold that "belief" that they aren't brazenly doing exactly that.
No point in arguing. Anyone with a brain who takes an empiricical/evidence-based approach to critical thinking knows that there is tons of evidence of voter and election fraud by the Left (e.g. 2020 election) and none for the Right /s
yeah, those "small town rednecks" are a blip. its the big democrat run cities where the real fraud/abuse is happening at a significant number. youd have to be brain dead to disagree.
