Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

It means forget the votes, and forget democracy. In other words, do a coup. The thing you are adamantly arguing against.
I hope someone's paying you to spread disinformation, and you're not simply a blithering imbecile.
NO THE FUCK IT ISNT YOU FUCKING MORON. NOW ALL YOU'RE DOING IS PARROTING FUCKING ALEX JONES' BULLSHIT. I HEARD THE SAME EPISODE AND YOU AND HE ARE DEAD FUCKING WRONG.
Holy shit, that's what you are. You're one of the Alex Jones idiots. Now it makes sense.
Yeah, good luck with any of your nonsense holding up in court. You're worse than the sovereign citizen people. At least they mostly keep to themselves with all their made up nonsense.
Not like you. You're here just showing your ass in public.
A coup doesn’t have to be violent. It can utilize existing rules if it breaks their spirit or the ability to change them.
A coup is a forceful seizure of governmental power that subverts the existing system of power. That includes shit like this.
A coup can be military but also from other bodies.
In this case it would be a self-coup since a lawfully elected power would be attempting to maintain power by illegal means.
