the objective is to eliminate all remaining slivers of empathy in their cult followers. label "other" as less than human, and then derive enjoyment from watching them suffer/die

maga already think how they're told to think, believe what they're told to believe, fear who they're told to fear, hate who they're told to hate. last step is to call public executions "entertainment." it's not a huge leap to go from a murderer sentenced to death to...whoever they want, guilty or not. and the throngs of empty headed followers will cheer louder every time

The thing most people do not comprehend, is that MAGA, therefore the GOP, have been doing snuff livestreams for a very very long time. The invention of the television was exactly to provide the Pentagon direct photographic display of the war they are committing. US soldiers are trained this way, to be apathetic to the atrocities they commit. And that blood festival is already home. Pete is just making it extremely clear that the 2nd civil war, has already been won.

But when they do stop Hegseth, will his death by throwing axe be televised?

The only reason it’s bipartisan is because the republicans are scared shitless of losing the midterms.

...all soldiers are trained to be apathetic to atrocity...

If I was a soldier, I sure as shit wouldn't want the dude next to me to start weighing the moral implications of shooting brown folks for capitalism. That's the kind of thing that gets you killed.

He's getting SLAMMED!

Democrats are about to EVISCERATE him!

He's facing a BACKLASH!

wanking gesture

Jeffries has already announced there will be no impeachments, I think the Ds prefer having someone to demonize than actually trying to change things.

That would be fitting, a firing range of axes thrown at him, on pay per view, the proceeds going to his victims.
