    So it’s quite obvious how all these cuts hurt Republicans and red states the most, but what’s the end game?

    Is this just another side to that 258m? They’re going to reduce the population by that much, damn whoever is in the path?

    But then what? You have a population unable to sustain itself. You can’t have wars because you can’t supply your troops.

    I don’t think there’s an endgame here. I think they just want to cause suffering to beat off to

      The end game is their base will still vote for them regardless of how much suffering they will inflict on them.

      If you are in an abusive relationship and your abuser knows you won’t leave them then they are free to abuse you.

      HitlerPig once said that Stephen ”PeeWee Himmler" Miller told him that he wanted to reduce the population to 100 million white people. That’s about 70% of the current population.

      My guess is they are trying to do everything they can to incite violence so they can declare martial law.

        I guess they underestimate how much the left values non-violent resistance. They wont throw the first punch. I don’t agree with it, but I think the regime is pissed off by it. Everything seems to be clogging the wheels, the courts throwing things out, investigations, lawsuits. They need Martial Law to be able to use an Iron Fist. And they have to be completely certain that Iron Fist will hold.
