Republican Georgia state Sen. Colton Moore on Tuesday told “War Room” host Steve Bannon that he plans to push the legislature to defund Fulton District Attorney Fani Willis’ prosecution of former President Donald Trump and 18 co-defendants, arguing that Trump’s prosecution threatens to ignite a “civil war.” Moore complained that indicted fellow state Sen. Shawn Still is going to have to spend “a million dollars” to defend himself in the case. “It’s just like Nazi Germany,” Moore claimed. “I mean, they want to call us the Nazis and their actions are Nazism.”

    Commies acting like they’re hard never stops being funny to me.

    In America, your communist uprising is terrorism, Comrade, not revolution.

    Your post history is chock full of calls for violence, and frankly, that’s weird for a dude in his 40s to constantly fantasize about. Grow up, man. You’re middle-aged. It’s time to stop playing kid shit.

      There are practically no American ‘communists,’ and more importantly there is statistically no American ‘left;’ that being said those of us that are left-wing never stopped being armed. Unlike American conservatives in either the democrat or republican party, we are staunchly against all gun control. As a reminder: “Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered,any attempts to disarm the people must be stopped, by force if necessary.” is a Karl Marx quote, not one of the American right-wing. When the US government started rounding up and killing communists in the 1940s and 50s, we started ensuring that we were armed, and that we absolutely were not ‘card-carrying communists,’ those of us one or two generations removed now remember the stories we were told, how it affected our family, and how important it will be to stay armed regardless of whatever ‘Liberals’ say is necessary for a free state. Liberalism has lead to fascism in every fascist regime, the ‘left’ does not recognize gun control.

        I’m aware that there are not enough of you to count as anything more than terrorists should you start getting violent, which is why I said that.

        There will never be a communist revolution in the US.

        The rest of your opinion is meaningless because of aforementioned numbers.

          You’re right, the US will fall long before it moves the slightest bit left wing. Which is probably a good thing all considered. The first iteration of an experiment is rarely successful, and the US laid the ground work for the EU which again is an improvement on the model of mostly independent states with baseline common values in need of common defense. But when you need worker’s rights again, and you will – we’ll be there again. When you need civil rights again, and you will – we’ll be there again. We’re really, really good at surviving right-wing and fascist regimes. Really good.

              Sorry you forgot the reason you’re not currently locked in a factory with a gun pointed at your head for a chance to win MineCorp FunBux is because of red state socialists committing some pretty severe acts of violence against the state and US military during strikes. In revisionist history, nothing at all happened at Blair Mountain.

                Which job will you have on the commune?

                I’m going to do astrology readings.

                  Honestly carpentry and a bit of gardening; what I do in my free time now. I’d also probably still be doing computer work, since you know, technology isn’t incompatible with socialism or communism. It’s really a weird thought that we’d need to go full anarcho-primative to have human rights again; as if technology did not exist under any other economic system. I’ve never met one of you that can explain how the soviet union had computers if socialism means no iphone.

                    It was a joke, because we’ll both be doing forced manual labor.

        Just don’t go on a big dramatic shooting spree, comrade. Being a dork on the Internet isn’t a crime.

      Lmao American “communists” fantasizing about a violent uprising (that they’ll never do) never fails to make me laugh when I’m feeling down
