      If they could confirm he’s there, id say best would be to puff smoke in large amounts to conceal then storm quickly, continuing to smoke out the lawns of the white house to cause mass confusion.

      Use flares and SAF for any helicopters, seize all electronics and ensure that targets are neutralized, then announce bounties from the oval office on all current Trump nominees, cabinet members, allies, and people who donated more than 10k to him during the last election, then watch justice happen.

          That was a surprisingly fun movie.

          The sequels are gash, but then Antoine Fuqua wasn’t involved with those.

            At the same time that came out, there was another movie with nearly the same plot, except that the Secret Service agent had to protect the president’s obnoxious 12 year old daughter.

            I watched it with my son who was about the same age as the daughter, and he finally said “I wish that guy would just shoot her and shut her up.”

            But coming on here and writing that shit out seeking others to agree with it is dangerous and just plain stupid.

                This isn’t “acknowledging reality”. It’s promoting others to violence while you sit on the sidelines

                  I see you go all over Lemmy and make insult comments to people, not just me.

                  “acknowledging reality”.

                  I don’t think you acknowledge reality and the Russian War Against Reality.

                  What’s your name? My name is Stephen Alfred Gutknecht. Do you avoid reality and your real name on social machines?

          Why do people always post shit like this? If I say my car needs a new transmission are you going to tell me go learn to be a mechanic?

          Saying something needs to be done =/= volunteering to do that thing.

          We’ve got an entire military who swore an oath to defend the constitution against domestic threats like Donald Trump - we don’t need a Rambo, we need the people we’re paying to keep our country intact to do their fucking job. Obviously they’re choosing not to, but that doesn’t mean the need for them to suddenly disappears or that Joe-Average on an internet forum is suddenly responsible for taking on that burden himself.

          But maybe Joe-Average’s rant on the internet forum will meet the eyes of someone qualified to get the job done, and serve as that push that’s needed to actually take action.

          So why the dismissive shit? Worse case scenario it accomplishes nothing: let the dude vent.

            Because he’s not on here saying his car is broken? He’s here telling other people how THEY should be carrying out an insurrection, and then doing fuck all themselves. Promoting violence while you hang out on the sides is pretty shitty

              Yes it is, and it’s what Clown Populations do on social machines.

              We don’t need violence, we need people to humanize media systems and stop dehumanizing people they disagree with and start solving the intellectual problems of society.

                Clown is a known anti-semitic dogwhistle, especially when applied to population groups. It’s entered common usage but you really need to stop pushing this dumbass phrase, like we don’t know you’re trying to get a Lemmy version of the hate sub ClownWorld going.

                  Clown is a known anti-semitic dogwhistle

                  it’s a reference to the common phrase “Put Clowns in the Palace, turn the Palace into a clown show”. Citation: On 4th February (2022), Henry Mance used it with impeccable correctness in the Financial Times: ‘An adulterated Turkish proverb is doing the rounds: “When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn’t become a king. The palace becomes a circus.” Well, a circus would be more organised than whatever happened in the British government this week. We have a broken swing and a clown who barely has enough balls to juggle with. Cirque du Soleil, this is not.’

                  you really need to stop pushing this dumbass phrase

                  Everyone who disagrees with you you bark “shut up” and call dumb asses I see.

                  like we don’t know you’re trying to get a Lemmy version of the hate sub ClownWorld going.

                  All hate is bad. That’s the problem with social media clowns, they hide their identity and misinterpret everything because they have zero training in media ecology.

                  anti-semitic dogwhistle

                  This is directed at all media platforms, not just Levant Bible, Levant Torah, Levant Quran consumers at Mosque, Church, Synagogue who often promote out-group hate against any “non-believers”, “gentiles”, “infidels”.

                  I’ve been very up-front and direct, not “dogwhistle”, which you can’t seem to understand and comprehend clear and direct communication that isn’t based on manipulation. All you seem capable of mocking and insulting what you disagree with intellectually. Which is a very common problem in April 2025 on Lemmy social media environment and Reddit social media environment and Bluesky social media enviornment. People who are anti-humanism in favor of technology love.

                  My message was VERY CLEAR: “Yes it is, and it’s what Clown Populations do on social machines.” - about social machines, Lemmy users. “We don’t need violence, we need people to humanize media systems and stop dehumanizing people they disagree with and start solving the intellectual problems of society.” is what I said, directing the topic to media systems, Lemmy users.

                When the only language the opposition speaks is violence we have to learn to speak it fluently in order to have a conversation.

                  I understand people adore hate and violence, it isn’t hard at all for me to see people flock to guns, weapons, hate, mass dehumanization leaders, systems of wrecking human lives and wrecking the planet. People speak hate fluently, it’s love and compassion nobody bothers to learn the language.

                    To be clear I don’t adore it but I know no amount of love and compassion will get through to these people and there are enough of them in power we can’t ignore them anymore. Unless our peaceful protest is backed by a willingness to respond to their violence in kind they can simply be ignored. Maybe the solution is economic violence (general strike, sit ins) but when they send police to break it up and arrest people everyone needs to be ready to defend themselves.

          Lol right? That one asshole got shot entering the main chamber and it only had the VP and congress. You think they won’t just open fire on protesters getting half way up the lawn of the white house? Hell, Trump is probably asking if they can send troops in to break it up cause their standing around with signs.

            Fun Fact, the lawn itself can defend against crowds. It’s loaded with less-lethal rubber bullet mines such as the Stingmore Mine and the M5 Crowd Control Munition.

              I was actually pretty disappointed to find out the Capitol didn’t have some anti-crowd measures besides doors.

              What are we paying the MIC for if they won’t even make automated anti-riot taser turrets?

                They probably only care about the guy with the launch codes, I guess. TBF though, those doors worked as long as nobody opened them.
