Fat Generals ! F A  F O  , seriously ?   now is the  time for this ? He is telling us  that he isn't going to surrender  the  Whitehouse peacefully and  asking directly and bluntly for supporters that will use force against American citizens  in an effort to further impose his will.
That line about “look em in the eye” and “the enemy within” is textbook intimidation theater.   o-4 national gaurdest Ole Saturday drunkard fox host  Petey Pete  
demanded
ALL  the Generals   appear before him so he can stare em down and tell em how it's gonna  be .  Then peg legged Taco manatee himself manages to huff and  puff his waddling way up to the Mic  and spews   " you better be  ready to deal with the  REAL  threat

THE ENEMY FROM WITHIN !
  The enemy from within ?  Oh, you mean like violent insurrectionist attacking the  Capitol ?
No, no,  those  are  heroes and patriots  now.  
Oh, so you mean peaceful protesters and people that disagree like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel. Also all immigrants and anyone with brown skin of any kind.
Lets be clear.

This  Christo-fascist ****  rhetoric is   weaponized to
blur all  the lines
between attacking  political opponents and enemies, and to
normalize using the military
as a cudgel against civilians
that disagree with bad policy and fiscal imprudence.
That phrase alone should make every veteran bristle and every democracy loving American  get  off there fat lazy @#$  and put in some effort .

Below  are two things you can use right  NOW: a short, scorched-earth
email to YOUR  U.S. Senator
that demands oversight and hearings, and or  a blunt phone script for your governor to make sure the state Guard stays under state control unless legal thresholds are met.
Use them verbatim, tweak the curse words however you want.

Scalding email to your U.S. Senator (copy/paste)

Subject: Stop the “enemy within” bull and hold hearings now on
Posse Comitatus Act (18 U.S.C. §1385) that generally bars using the military to execute civilian law. That’s  baseline legal prohibition and more than enough for precedence .

Senator [Last Name],

I am a constituent and a Navy veteran. I watched a recent Oval Office spectacle where a civilian official and the president used language about “the enemy within” while addressing flag officers. That phrase is blatant intimidation and an attack on civil norms. I am asking you to demand immediate congressional hearings to:

Establish what orders were given, in writing.

Require the DoD Inspector General to review any directives that could authorize domestic use of force against unarmed civilians.
Protect OUR rights to peaceable assembly.

Protect whistleblowers, Guard authorities, and IG independence.

Get a legal opinion from the DoD General Counsel and the Attorney General on the legality of any implied or explicit orders to use force against U.S. voters and coerced persons.

We do not tolerate casual talk of turning the military inward.

If Congress fails to act and oversight is weakened, you will be judged by voters and veterans who stood in harm’s way to protect constitutional order.

I expect a prompt public statement and commitment to hearings. Don’t pussyfoot or candy coat  this.
Sincerely,
[Your full name]
[City, State]
[Optional: branch, rate, years served]

Blunt phone script for your Governor (use on voicemail or live)

Hi Governor [Last Name], my name is [Your Name], I’m a constituent (  and  an active duty combat Navy veteran).  I’m calling about reports that federal officials told a room of generals to “be ready to address the enemy within  with swiftness and brute force at a moments notice .” That phrase is alarming and could be used to justify federalizing the Guard or Marines again  using armed troops against citizens.

I want you to state publicly that you will not consent to federalization or the use of the National Guard  and or Military forces not limited to but including the Marine Corps for domestic law enforcement . I want you to confirm you will defend the independence of the state Guard and push back against any unlawful orders. If you won’t, tell me why.
This is beyond ridiculous  speech and behavior.  Ludicrous and disgusting abuse of power and  obvious fear and intimidation tactics, like no sitting president ever before .
When you're afraid to speak, you sell your rights for nothing
You sell your conscience, your soul and country for nothing
When you're afraid to express yourself, you don't subsist
You're no longer alive, you're dead, and you no longer exist.

Writers, poets, professors, professionals, teachers and students
Be not afraid to say something, to tell the truth, to tell it like it is
Language is the easiest form of communicating, say it with ease
Say it like brave beings and have no fear to face the elements.

When you speak, say it loud, with all your might, force and soul
Speak like a Hero. Be brave, be fair, be just, and be strong and bold.

Trump publicly calls a whole party “demonic” repeatedly.. At the same time, he can't tell you what denomination he is or what church he claims to belong to.
He singles out individuals like Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. as “animals,” it isn’t subtle
it’s hateful and  a raw call to violence
an explicit dehumanization.
That kind of rhetoric normalizes violence and hatred, because if someone is an animal or demonic, the mental brakes against harming them weaken to those who already worked into a frenzy because they are perpetually mentally weak.
.People start to see these  attacks as justified or even heroic.

Meanwhile, the same media and political actors will scream when the opposite happens, pretending moral outrage is symmetrical, when in reality the scale and intent are completely different. The attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband was real, violent, and celebrated by some, and that’s not equivalent to a comedian or commentator making a critical joke
it’s literal harm and encouragement of harm.

This is the core problem: labeling, mocking, dehumanizing, and encouraging violence while pretending moral equivalence exists. The language matters because it frames perception, justifies action, and warps accountability.

The McCarthyism-style labeling—is exactly how authoritarian systems and propaganda work. The Republicans, especially Fox News, are experts in fear mongering.
That's what the core of  every episode of Fox News is about.
Words like “dissent” or “anarchist” are thrown around to erase the legitimacy of lawful, peaceful action. Meanwhile, the real threats armed, aggressive, coercive actions
get normalized or framed as “protest” by the same people wielding the labels.  
Specifically referring to events before the election in the state of Arizona
where , heavily armed.
Trump supporters went to federal and state buildings brandishing automatic weapons openly,
with bullets
literally strapped to their chest,
threatening. And coercing voters and local politicians.

Brandishing weapons at government buildings with intent to intimidate or coerce? That’s a criminal act. like January 6th fomentation.
That crosses the line from protest into
sponsored demanded  terrorism,
intimidation,
and armed insurrection.
There is no moral or legal equivalence between someone exercising their rights of
free speech
and peaceable assembly.
and someone waving automatic weapons at a courthouse to influence votes.

That’s why precision in language matters so **** much.

Don't let ChatGPT and Google and these other right wing GOP mouthpieces convince you that using language like calling peaceful protesters
dissenters or
even going so far as labeling them radicals and or anarchists is okay or normal.
Speak up
and speak out.
If you don't,
you're condoning it.  Boycott Disney , Paramount, Fox, Sinclair media, Truth social, X, etc.  (  There are cheap alternatives.)

They use fascism as sneaky  weaponized language.
It’s designed to manipulate perception,
to make people who are doing something
completely legitimate and peaceful
appear dangerous or radical.
It primes susceptible  viewers and readers to
distrust,
fear
or even hate
promotes violence against
your neighbors
and non whites
before any facts are even  presented or challenged.
Free speech challenges lies and propaganda ,
that's why they cancelled Kimmel.

It’s not just a connotation issue
it’s psychological warfare.
One word like that can turn a citizen exercising rights into a “threat” in the public imagination.
That’s why it matters so much:
the words we use are loaded tools, and misusing them can escalate conflict without a single action being taken.

People are being crushed right now financially , literally.
The tariffs are starving people and leaving them homeless.
The levels of suicide have never been higher.
The levels of petty theft just to survive.
People are scared and desperate.
The levels of violence will only increase.

There is a realistic. Separation and division between facts and reality and what is actually being reported in the media.
Don't misunderstand or conflate what I'm doing with fear mongering.
It is clearly and obviously different,
and if you can't see those facts,
there's this place called
The Library
that has real books that you can check out
and read for free.

Still, if I was worse

Lessons need not hurt.
I've been thinking about the worst case scenario

"we are not a phase"
they had told us
to whisper our pronouns
hide our true colours painted on flags
like shame folds easier
than truth.

they say,
"love has rules"
but only when it looks
a certain way,
and we never looked
they way they had wanted,
the way they expected us to be.

but we exist
in full colour --
in quiet,
soft,
gentle first kisses,
in second glances that were held
a little too long by most,
in the hands that tremble
but still reach.

we are not a debate.
we are certainly not a phase.
we are stories
that are still being written,
in chalk
on our skin,
in protest,
and in poems.

and when they try to erase us,
who we are,
we come back.
louder.
softer.
screaming for rights.
still here.
did not write this for hate so back off

there's no crime that can't be presented
as some kind of heroic action.
if you've something to say against it,
then you're plotting an insurrection.
then no matter how loud you're screaming
at those giving their lives to get drafted,
you're a traitor that stands on the front lines
while the patriots watch from a distance.
every word can be framed as a slogan,
every question's a sign of resistance.
as the crowd splits in different directions,
there's no evil that can't be presented
as some kind of heroic action.

All is interchangeable
As it awakened in the void
I or another has not created reason
The interchangeable karma word
Existed
World peace did not
I's words had free will
Lacked in comparison
To contemporary ink

Religion is oppression

Ali Hassan May 18
Upon the checkered battlefield she stands,
A sovereign forged by mighty hands.
She moves through fire, wind, and air,
Where king would tremble, she would dare.

The king? He takes but one slow pace,
Yet all the world must guard his place.
She sweeps the board to shield his name,
While he remains a throne, a frame.

She leaps through lines, across the night,
Her strength is feared, her aim is right.
But when she falls oh, silent doom!
A pawn may rise to fill her room.

No grand crown mourned, no songs are sung,
Her courage known but seldom rung.
A lesser piece takes her fading light,
As if her power held no right.

She bled for him, and when she’s gone,
Another stands as if nothing’s wrong.
But if the king should fall in fight,
No pawn can rise to claim his right.

Why must the Queen be thrown aside,
While weaker soul enjoy the ride?
Why can the game not truth confess
That all revolves around her finesse?

So let the rules be drawn anew:
The Queen shall rise as sovereign true.
If she must fall, the crown shall end
No pawn pretend, no false ascend.

The king, if brave, must prove his might,
Or lose the board to equal right.
No longer will her death be cheap,
No longer will her silence keep.

This is the Queen’s game sharp and wise,
No longer masked in king’s disguise.
Let Queen be Queen in full command,
No shadow bound to his demand.

Let every move her story tell:
She ruled the board. She ruled it well.
And now, at last, the game replays
With justice ruled by Queen’s own ways.
