Local activists are eager to make a New Year’s revolution
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | January 1, 2017 | David Talbot

A great cloud of melancholy has settled over Facebook land, or at least over those regions I inhabit. The coming ascension of Donald Trump has deeply darkened the usual year-end winter blues.

“I think there’s going to be more street protests and mass arrests than in the 1960s,” he says. “There’s a growing movement on the left, just as the most right-wing president in history takes power. And there are limits to what people can do within the system, since the Republicans control every branch of government.”


The snow flake pajama boy college students are going to take to the streets?

Should these commie wankers actually mobilize, their demise will be swift and sure. DJT isn’t intimidated.

Somehow these types are incapable of seeing the connection between Republican majorities and the will of the voters.

As if Republican legislators mysteriously materialize.

Remember, to liberals, words are action. They think because they keyboard cowboy on fakebook that they have done something.

Simply refuse to hire any liberal. Refuse to shop their stores. Cut them off from friends and family. Isolate them.

The great thing I learned from Bernie’s campaign was that it gave liberals an out. Every time I asked one of them to tell what motivated them to vote for Hillary, they always told me they were really for Bernie and since the party picked Hillary they would vote for her. So Bernie sucked all the enthusiasm out of the room.

“Stephen Zunes, a University of San Francisco politics professor whose study of nonviolent resistance is cited by the Englers, believes that we’re about to see a tidal wave of such popular action.”

Revolution is fine just don’t mess with Professor Zunes’s publicly funded medical benefit and pension plan.

Those, and hashtags and marches where they shout things that rhyme. Weapons of war!

And a few coffee pourers, um baristas, will write "not my president" on some Starbucks cups or sumpin' and celebrities will say all sorts of nonsense on comedy shows that fewer and fewer people watch. Prepare for the hellfire!

, they always told me they were really for Bernie and since the party picked Hillary they would vote for her.

So they were quite willing to accept Hillary's fraudulent coronation?
