I found it - and Queen's Flash Gordon soundtrack - on CD at a random record store in Ohio, I think, in '92. Was 18 yrs. old, had been hunting for it for 10 yrs. Formatted it to WAVE and MP3 in '98, still have the files, MP3 is on my phone.

🤣 You're going to lose that battle.

THIS ISN'T THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION.

Apples and oranges.

You're going to find that out the hard
way. And fuck it up for the rest of us.

Feel free to tell us how this all ends using your "plan". We're all ears.
January 15, 2026 at 4:31 PM
🤣 It was won largely by General Washington's strategy and tact, moving away from traditional warfare and relying on deception, intel, guerrilla warfare, and leadership. Without him, Britain would have swallowed us whole.
January 15, 2026 at 4:31 PM
I could care less how I look. That's your problem. Get over yourself and your hero complex. This isn't a god damn
game.
January 15, 2026 at 4:22 PM
And no, I just said on another thread that our military is not 100% sold on
Trump. I KNOW this. That's all I can
say.
January 15, 2026 at 4:21 PM
Again: our paramilitary force is HERE, NOW. They can be called on and arrive in hours, fully armed. You're out of
your element.
January 15, 2026 at 4:19 PM
The colonist were NOT outnumbered by troops on American soil while they prepared for conflict. Troops
didn't arrive in large numbers until Lexington and Concord, buying time to prepare. It took at least six weeks to ship
troops from mainland Britain to our shores. 1/2
January 15, 2026 at 4:17 PM
After that?
January 15, 2026 at 4:13 PM
I've provided a plethora of "something." You just refuse to question your hero complex. Again: what is your end-game? What do you think you're going to achieve?
January 15, 2026 at 4:11 PM
So, you don't have an actual goal. That's the problem with reactionists. No goal, no tact, just raging against the machine. Wake up to the fact that this machine will chew you up and spit you out. We have to fight this intelligently, fire that one well-placed stone at the forehead of the giant.
January 15, 2026 at 4:09 PM
Again: realistically, what impact do you think your approach will gain for us, other than Martial Law? How is that a victory for anyone?
January 15, 2026 at 4:03 PM
Realistically, what do you think the end-game of your approach will gain us in the long run?
January 15, 2026 at 4:02 PM
Exploit their gross incompetence. They've left the door wide open in their zeal to recruit hastily. We need to infiltrate the organization. A reporter recently did this. Assess exactly what we're dealing with. Sow internal divisions and distrust. Divert away from liberals as a common enemy.
January 15, 2026 at 3:54 PM
Indeed, I do. It's called a "False Dichotomy," and is an attempt to force us into believing that we only have two choices: violence or acquiescence. It negates other ways and means, more covert, effective means that don't bait us into subservience OR direct engagement. Ways intel-ops topple regimes.
January 15, 2026 at 3:46 PM
This has elements from our own Civil War, Gilded Age class conflict, European fascist ideology and its spread to the U.S. prior to WWII, the Civil Rights struggle during the 60s, 9/11 and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the rise of Putin and Erdoğan on the world stage.
January 15, 2026 at 3:31 PM
I teach it. This isn't even close. Apples and oranges. Dealing with a monarch from across the Atlantic 250 years ago isn't even remotely the same battle. Mass and instantaneous communication, an internal paramilitary organization made up of our own citizens, etc.
January 15, 2026 at 3:22 PM
Even totalitarian regimes rely on a healthy mandate from a large cross-section of the people. Public sentiment is already bending against ICE and Trump's actions. Internal collapse: the only thing that binds MAGA together is their hatred of liberals. They'll turn on each other without a common enemy
January 15, 2026 at 3:19 PM
They have been FAR from purged. Without revealing too much, there's still very decent, moral officers and soldiers who make up the backbone of each branch. Don't confuse silence with acquiescence.
January 15, 2026 at 3:14 PM
Not at all. There's more than one way to fight fascism. Direct engagement has been fascism's bait in every instance it's been successful. Trump's producing reality TV, and you are showing up for his casting call. We need to dominate the narrative.

Men on Mars 🤣
Musk's greatest fraud. A bloated, resource hogging pipe dream. We can't sustain life where it's abundant; what makes anyone believe we can sustain it where it's hostile?
January 15, 2026 at 3:04 PM
No one is going to win a confrontation with any federal force. We need to wake up to that fact.
January 15, 2026 at 2:58 PM
Probably safer for Minnesota with them there, as much as I hate to admit it. At least the military is trained and is comprised of mostly decent people. Maybe that'll temper some of ICE's worst tendencies.
January 15, 2026 at 2:57 PM
Future Democrat candidates need to start promising pardons. What's good for the goose...
