Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

QAnons think that this date will be the date Trump will seize control of the US government and arrest all the leftists present. That was based on historical presidents being sworn into office on March 4 before 1933, even though current American laws do not use this date.

I thought they chose March 4th just for the pun Tbh

@HorsesandMuchMOAR  
Your link goes into more detail. The idea is that every law and amendment passed after 1871 is invalid.
 
The District of Columbia Organic Act of 1871 established a single local government for all of D.C. The law refers to D.C.‘s government as a “municipal corporation”, and for that reason sovereign citizen nutjobs take it as turning the entire country into a corporation… somehow. QAnon nutjobs go further and assume that Trump will revoke this corporation’s charter… somehow, rolling back every law passed since then. Which would make things rather awkward for a number of agencies, including Trump’s vaunted Space Force, but I digress.

@Background Human  
Might make for an interesting “what if” thread, though.

I was today years old when I found out a swastika isn’t the only symbol that describes Nazis.

@Hollowfox Jaeger
 
The nazis were very big on appropriating imagery and idioms for “irony”.
 
It’s not a coincidence why that sounds familiar.

@Dustcan  
Nazis are thieves.

@Dustcan  
Anyway, I learned that a shape and the letter Z is also Nazi symbols and not just a swastika. Ask Bella Poarch and someone at a CPAC presentation.

There’s a big irony in these fundy, white, presumably “Christian” people coopting Pagan symbology.
 
 
Stop stealing our shit you fucks. I have a hand carved set of elder runes that people are going to start associating with Nazis.

Swastikas are neat! 2 bad it now is associated with the National Socialist German Labor Party.
 
I look forward to a time when the NatSoc is but a meme and has become so irrelevant, it no longer owns the Swastika or swastika related shapes.

@Zincy  
Me, a muslim: I’m totally super okay with the fact that they’d steal literally everything BUT islamic symbology.
 
Although…
 
Nah, that’s for the religion thread.

@Zincy  
The elder runes are safe. It’s the younger runes that are ruined.
 
On a side note, the “Hagal” rune used by the SS reminds me of the Galactic Empire sigil in Star Wars. No connection, though. Or so they say.

I literally can’t go one day without family members repeating the EXACT SAME RHETORIC.
 
“Trump’s the best president we’ve had in a long time!”
 
“That Biden’s got dementia. And Kamala’s just plain evil.”
 
“The democrats want to establish a one-world rule I tell ya.”
 
SHUT UP. JUST SHUT UP. All you’ve done is just made me hate Trump even more by the day.

@Penguin Dragneel  
oof.  
my condolences. that is NOT how I want to live my daily life. I hope you either gtfo soon or that they would shut up for one day.

North Dakota is trying to pass a bill that will block state officials from releasing vote totals. Effectively keeping the totals secret until after canvassing and the legislature getting their grubby little mitts on it.
 
The Republican party is the party of anti-democracy.

@tehwatever  
That won’t be in our lifetime. People are so paranoid now that they are seeing Nazi imagery everywhere. It’ll be awhile before that stops.

I find it ironic that these Trump Cultists say that “Oh, the “Left” is treating Biden like God.” Yet, without any form of self-awareness, they’re treating Trump like a God.

@NitroFury  
It’s more projection than mere lack of self-awareness at this point.

@NitroFury
 
Again, they made a golden idol of Trump for CPAC.
 
It’s no longer inaccurate to call Trumpists a cult.

@Dustcan
 
Where’s a good smiting when you need it?

I mean, these last couple of weeks have already been raking the Biden Administration along the coals over a lot of shit they’ve done and haven’t done(rightfully so), which is still more than Trump supporters have did during his entire 4 years

meanwhile, in India…
 

 
But I’m not one to mock someone’s religion. Hey, at least he knows his god exists and can prove it. Me? I can’t prove it. So he wins already.

“And INSULT NOT those whom the disbelievers worship beside Allah…” Quran (Chapter 6 verse 108)
 
Now that Trump is officially literally worshipped by someone somewhere, therefore I cannot, if I were to follow the Quran, insult Mr. Trump.
 
Chekmate me, I guess. GG well played.

Tell me, how many things that are associated with Nazis were actually stolen by them from other people?

@CaptainXtra
 
All of them.
 
 
Literally all of them. The Nazi Party and its later affiliates didn’t invent anything. Much of their military iconography was German military rec beforehand.
 
Maybe the Todeskopf and SS symbols were their creations, but everything else was coopted.
