    First of all, no more recognition of the american flag or standing for the national anthem. Scott Adams said the following on YouTube today, it's amazing and it's absolutely how I and I think most Conservatives now feel:

    "There was not one patriot on the jury. It should be the biggest landslide in history now. They've overreached. I didn't think it was real until now. But I'm pretty close to not paying my taxes.

    A very quiet energy is going to be unleashed. It's going into 4th gear. I'm feeling at risk of going to jail at this point. The message is if they can get him they can get anybody. So it's going to get dark and I'm going to act like I'm fighting for my life. We are fighting a level of evil that we have never seen. This is the darkest moment in american history.

    One thing is certain, something is going to change. I am so angry I might lose my mind. We're not at the point where violence makes sense but we're very close to it. But they want us to overreact. They want us to become violent. I don't respect the system anymore. The last shred of respect is gone. That's the end of it for me. I'm not going to do a pledge of allegiance anymore. I'm done with that. I won't even stand for the national anthem, because the country is gone. There is nothing to stand for.

    You think I'm going to stand for the american flag now, after what I just watched today? Nope. I wish we could get our country back but it's gone.


    - Scott Adams. May 30th, 2024.

    This is exactly how I feel as well. Like Scott, like I am fighting for my life. The next steps for me are simple. I took down my american flag today. It's been flying upside down for 3 years now (the sign of the nation in distress). But there is no U.S. anymore so there's no point in flying it. When I go to sporting events I will not stand or sing the national anthem. I won't make a spectacle because I'm there for the event, not to pledge allegiance to a fallen country. I will make sure I'm in the concourse area or the bathroom when the national anthem is going on.

    I will try to limit my economic activity to hurt the economic zone formerly known as the U.S. as much as possible. I will be investing in foreign currency and gold as a bet against the dollar. I will be looking long term at some offshore bank accounts for when the inevitable asset forfeiture comes for Trump supporters, Republicans, Conservatives, anyone who isn't completely aligned with the Leftist elite.

    I think as a group Trump supporters need to have a week where we simply don't leave our houses, don't go to our jobs and don't support the economy in any way. You get 40% or even 30% of the country to do that we cripple the country economically. We can bring this corrupt government to its knees if even 30% of the country refuses to go to work for a few days, never mind a week.

    Like Scott I'm also very close to not paying my taxes anymore. If all Trump supporters would do that what would they do? Throw 30% to 40% of the country in jail? They aren't going to do that and everyone here knows it. That's how you start a revolution.

    But at least to start no more anthem. If it's on for a sporting event I'll watch something else until the anthem is over. I won't stand for it at sports events in person. I will no longer buy anything with the former U.S. flag on it. I will do my best not to support the country economically. And I will join any movements to limit or fully eliminate paying taxes to a corrupt government. A government that would jail me for jaywalking while the Leftist elites can get away with the worst crimes imageable.

    Please don't get me wrong, I'm like Scott. I don't want to go to jail. But like Scott I think it's a real possibility. I actually think it's probably inevitable. Once the Leftist Elites get Trump out of the way, I believe the next step will be the FBI and IRS going after anyone who has supported Trump to destroy them financially, just like they did to the Tea Party during the Obama years. For Americans who care about freedom and liberty, we will have no choice but to fight, and suffer whatever consequences that ends up bringing.

    If 30% or 40% get on board and don't do it are they going to jail 30% or 40% of the country? Please name me countries that have survived even remotely long term with that percentage of their citizens being jailed.

    Absolutely. No chance the IRS will mess with you. Proceed with your plan.

    So predictable. I was waiting for the minute someone tried to make this invalid comparison.

    If I don't stand for the anthem I'm representing myself and no one else. Kaepernick was not just representing himself. He wasn't representing himself the minute he put on that uniform. At that point he was no longer himself, he was the QB of the 49ers organization. If he wanted to not stand for the anthem he could do it from the stands after buying a ticket like the rest of us. But he didn't have the right to do it on the field while representing his organization.

    As much as I would hate it, if my Company tomorrow said "we're going to start each day with a playing of the national anthem and you have to stand for it if you are able" I would oblige since I'm on Company time, not my own time. I would hate it and would probably start looking for another job but I would stand.

    So cry me a river Kaepernick for getting canned for not standing for the anthem when you were on Company time, not your own.

    Hoepfully.

    You should turn yourself in advance. It's tyranny that you will NOT be subjected to.

    The party of law & order is led by a convicted felon. How ironic

    A Prisoner's Dilemma in which the player who doesn't understand individual incentives to shirk says "They can't jail us all" might be a bit too on the nose.

    You try to jail 30% or 40% of the country the country falls in days and you are talking about the UN or NATO finally getting off their lazy a**es and taking control of the U.S. to prevent the level of human atrocity that would happen.

    You try to jail 30% or 40% of any country and you would have a humanitarian disaster that would surpass Gaza currently. It's amazing you can't see that. No way could the U.S. jail 30% to 40% of the country if they didn't pay their taxes.

    Heck there's not even the space. Jails are already over capacity in many areas. Where would you even put people?

    Seriously, get out some and get off the toxic echo chamber websites for a while.
    I went out tonight and everyone acted just like they did before 5p today.

    @OklahomaGator - just curious, not complaining, but was just wondering if there is a limit to the number of completely stupid, troll threads intended to do nothing but provoke angry responses, that one person can start in a 24 hour period?

    And yet we're the Nazis right? Yet you are flat out saying you would be happy to jail all your political enemies. You're the one turning your back on Democracy, jailing anyone who disagrees with you politically. Pretty Nazi like to me.

    Correct.

    Just the ones who commit jailable offenses. As you are advocating doing.
