'You Can’t Be Pro-Insurrection And Pro-American,' Says President Of Nation Founded By An Insurrection – The Babylon Bee – Jul 27, 2022
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The president shot back at what he called "Super Duper Ultra MAGA Turbo Titans" Monday as he claimed "you can't be pro-insurrection and pro-American" despite being the commander in chief of a nation founded by an insurrection.
"Can you imagine Thomas Jefferson calling for the blood of tyrants? What if John Adams refused to pledge fealty to King George? England would've nuked us to oblivion. It would've been total malarkey anarchy!" said the unblinking Biden, unflinching in the face of a citizenry increasingly questioning whether he is fit to be president.

Dear USAmericans, the world needs peace, and that can only happen with regime change in the NeoLib+NeoCon dictatorship whose foreign policy is genocidal imperialism and home policy is Fascism sprinkled with rainbow flags.
But you guys don’t have to hate each other not kill each other, because the “reds” (GOP, Republicans) and the “blues” (“democrats”) are just a single party of the oligarchy, and they just fool you by trying ti divide you into 2 factions.
Those 2 factions are not real. They’re just a virtual creation of their Divide & Conquer strategy/manipulation.
You don’t have to be “pro-insurrection”, like January-6. All you have to be is united as a people, against your real enemies. Those enemies are not in the “other party”. Those enemies are not in Russia, China, Iran, Cuba, etc.
The enemies are in Washington, Pentagon, Langley, Silicon Valley, Wall Street.
It’s time for people in USA to study the Portuguese revolution of carnations of 1974, where the military seized power, overthrew the fascist regime, and handed the power to the people, without bloodshed. That’s exactly what USA and the World need right now.
If any bloodshed needs to happen, that must be in the MainStreamMedia. Operation MockingBird never ended and is now deeper than ever. MSM know only lies and manipulation, propaganda and omission, dishonesty and FakeNews. The system imposed by CIA and continued by some oligarchs is now too deep, too rooted, to be able to change.
CNN = FOX News, etc.
NYTimes = Financial Times, etc.
NeoLib = NeoCon.
Obama/Biden/Clinton = Bush/Trump.
NSA = Google.
CIA = Isis/AlQaeda/UkraNazis/naZionists.
You guys either understand this, or you understand nothing.
You don’t need an insurrection or reds Vs blues, not blues Vs reds. You need to be together, as a people, and make a TOTAL regime change, the whole 99% against the 1%. You will know you have made USA great/decent again, once there is no longer anymore CIA/NSA, when Snowden is back at home, Assange is liberated, when Guantánamo is closed and de-occupied, when all the Military Industrial Complex is either dismantled or nationalized (so that you can end the “logic” of profit made by forever wars), when the minimum wage raises to at least double, when healthcare is a Constitutional right, when men are men and women are women, when you become a multi-partisan and proportional regime where millionaires can no longer decide, with their donations, who are the candidates that you can vote for, when you have a UN embassador that condemns nazis in Ukraine and naZionists in occupied Palestine (aka “Israel”).
The fight between “MAGA red hat’s” and “LGBT BLM progressives” is an illusion made to divide you and stop you from the necessary recolution against the fascist and genocidal oligarchy.
People of USA must be together, get the army on its side, and realize who the real enemy is. Then you can have the regime change the world need the most: total change in Washington, and something like the Nuremberg trials for the genocidal imperialists (and their PRESStitutes) that assassinated +20 million humans since 1945 in the so called name of “freedom and democracy”.
But if you decide that you actually want a civil war, then I hope the end result is a mutual defeat of both sides (no one dominating anyone), and a division of the (no longer United) States into at least 3 new countries: NorthEast, West, and South+Central regions. All the luck to the secessionist movements.
The world will be a better place after this.

Bringing up the role of the military in possible civil strife in the US is crucial. It isn’t sufficient to say the people are disgusted so there will be some kind of revolt that will overthrow the evil system. The devil is in the details; one needs to try to anticipate exactly how this might unfold. Now, wagelaborer | Jan 6 2024 21:30 utc | 45 above imagines that the system will simply continue to override and crush all opposition, albeit maybe more blatantly, with more use of force, and that certainly appears to be their intention. So one has to try to understand and locate how some different outcome might be.
I myself recently cited the Portuguese military-led revolution of 1974, as carlos marques does here, as a possible precedent. That is, the US military might become anti-imperialist from experiencing the reality of the wars those in control of the US foreign policy have been waging against many foreign countries. RLTW, a military veteran, testifies to that alienation exactly, and in fact sounds pretty angry about it, and I can add to that that one of my students, a veteran of Iraq, feels exactly the same, and I have shared a lot of conversations with him about that. This has to be taken seriously, and one can be sure the government is also aware of it. It is objected that the military officers are promoted based on their political reliability, and that is likely enough, when one sees all of the apologists for imperialism among the US generals. But the Portuguese revolution was mainly led by younger officers, was it not? So it seems to me that the revolutionary possibilities exist and have not been exhausted. I also, however, have to agree with DakotaRog that any revolution in the US is likely to be contested and very, very bloody, not easy.
Where I do not agree with RLTW, despite the understanding I have of where he is coming from and my respect for his views, is the idea that the immigrants would form a sort of praetorian guard protecting the deep state. Yes, there are mercenaries, but they don’t necessarily have loyalty to those paying them, if they see the wind is blowing the other way. Also, most immigrants are non-military. I myself, while I am just an ordinary American citizen whose last ancestor to immigrate to the US came from Norway in 1885, married abroad, brought my wife back with me, and helped her, some of her family, and two of my friends to immigrate, so I would urge one not to exclude all immigrants as possible allies and friends of the people in this matter. Not all immigrants by any means will back the deep state.
Also, understand where I am coming from, like it or not. I was brought up as a liberal democrat, so that is my whole family tradition, and some of my family are still in it. But I have been progressively alienated from that so-called liberalism, and each new step in public policy in the US has led me to a further deepening of my contempt for the entire system and the feeling that it is completely irredeemable and must be replaced with something else. This started with my rejection of the Vietnam War, about which I said,
The masters mention not two million bled
And burnt to death in Vietnam, these led
As innocent victims to a slaughter cruel
But hidden by the press; such is the rule.
I wish I knew how came the Nazis’ crime
To be the vilest found in any time,
While Vietnam’s unavenged dead they make
The victims of an innocent mistake.
I can hardly believe the degradation the country has fallen into, and my heart goes out to my college students who find their futures so circumscribed by neoliberalism and are filled with growing anger at being permanently relegated to gig jobs as waiters and waitresses. Were I much younger, I think I would seek to migrate elsewhere, but Philadelphia is home for my children, and for better or worse we are just committed to staying here and doing our best to survive.
Oh, and carlos is right that the attempts of the establishment to divide the people on left and right lines should be rejected. That is all fake.
