Nothing will happen because the lawyers will argue that they didn't state any particular individual, only generally.

A proper judge would tell them the intent is damn clear and come down hard on them. But...

So they're just more MAGA terrorists, got it.

The state Libertarian Party, chaired by Jeremy Kauffman, lost its national affiliation in May, for violating the party’s rules and ideals.

Good. Sounds like Kauffman and crew have lost their minds (and lost their sight of the non-aggression principle).

First thought as well. The NAP is one of the few things that make libertarianism sound actually decent on paper. Get rid of that and libertarianism becomes some cartoonishly blatant corpo-fascism.

When Conservatives tell you what they're going to do, believe them.

This is why I don't feel shame for mocking Kirk's death. The people asking for civility literally wanna kill me.

Wow, it almost sounds like the US "Libertarian" Party has always been a fascist party aimed at supporting no liberties except the liberty of the powerful to take liberties away from the weak.

WHO'D HAVE THUNK IT?

It’s so exhausting that this is just allowed these days. I would very much like to call for certain things against certain people, but no. I want off this timeline please.

They're a bona fide maga troll. It's weird to see on lemmy, but they come by and visit every so often. They're not good trolls.

The bottom 30% of the IQ scale (MAGAts) are desperately sending their best and brightest to try and troll us. It's a rather sad attempt, to be honest.
