They can't even do a coup without fucking half of it up.
How have they fucked up? No one has stopped them
Because they don't have to worry about fuck ups. Americans are gonna do jack shit about it. Otherwise something would have already been done.
Not true. The Democrats will form a committee to discuss language to be placed in a letter to the administration, they may even call a news conference to state that they are disappointed in what is happening and if it continues they may have to do more drastic measures like actually sending the letter that the committee put together.
Wait, it gets better! The Democrats are going to form a committee to discuss language for the letter, which is sure to be a 500-page document that will get printed out on recycled paper and ceremoniously burned in a symbolic gesture of disappointment. And after weeks of debate, they'll finally agree on a single sentence that reads, 'We are disappointed in the administration's lack of action.' Wow, that'll definitely send shockwaves through Washington!
But wait, there's more! They'll then call an emergency press conference to declare their outrage, where they'll all stand in front of a teleprompter and read from their carefully crafted statement. And to really drive the point home, they might even release a 3-minute video montage of footage from the committee meeting, set to a dramatic score, just to make sure everyone knows how "serious" they are.
And if that's not enough, they'll then proceed to actually send the letter – but only after making it clear that they're only doing so because they have to, and not because they actually expect anything to change. And when the administration inevitably ignores them or responds with a half-hearted gesture of tokenism, they'll be like, 'See, we told you so! We sent our letter and... oh wait, nothing happened.' It's going to be hilarious!
That's the frightening part .... either they are idiots that are completely messing everything up including their own plans ... or they are following a well orchestrated plan of disruption and chaos to gain control of everything and everyone
Either way, they are undoing a lot of things that will take years or decades to bring back

It's much easier to fight a enemy that is confused, disorganized, and fighting amongst itself. This is by design.
Incompetence is one of the hallmark qualities of a fascist government.
Hey, people think Hitler's Germany was a success story until he started to loose the war but it was actually a clusterfuck right from the beginning and doomed to fail from the start.
If you start a mechanized war without significant oil reserves you're gonna have a bad time
I mean, he loosed war pretty early, so it wasn't that long according to what you say.
Now now... incompetence is the hallmark of any government
Just wait until all the backdoors are discovered. Or front doors I guess...with how inept these idiots are. Can't wait for someone with some power/money to actually get sick of these clowns and just end them
This is what the accelerationists didn’t account for.
I'm betting on stage 1 underpants gnomes.
