when you look at the people around you at any given time and you think
about all the different strokes in any given organization, large or small, the
notion of any large scale, coordinated conspiracy seems almost impossibly
unlikely.
It’s not a coordinated conspiracy. It’s the hundreds of thousands (millions?) of like minded “civil servants” who act against the people on their own.

I work with civil servants almost daily. Many are part of “the resistance”. There’s no orders given from some kind of leadership. There is a shared political agenda and they act as they see fit to further it.

Imagine a guy like Fecal Face as a building inspector and he sees the owner of the construction company working on the project pull up with a Trump sticker on his truck....

But what if they are right and don's an agent for putin?

Not saying he is but what if?
If they have evidence of that then they should turn it over to the proper authorities.

It isn’t the place of civil servants to act in ways that are extra-legal based on righteous belief that the president is an “agent for Putin”, even if that belief turns out to be true.

Again, if someone at the EPA has evidence that Trump is sucking Putin’s c0ck then they should turn it over to the proper authorities. In the meantime if the Trump administration wants the EPA to re-write some regulations then do your fucking job and re-write them. If you can’t in good conscience do your job, quit.

What if a cop thinks you raped and murdered a child? Is ok for that cop to shoot you on sight?

"Imagine a guy like Fecal Face as a building inspector and he sees the owner of the construction company working on the project pull up with a Trump sticker on his truck...."

That person is just a shitty worker.

You don't have to be a civil servant to be a shitty worker.

To attribute this shittiness to the Resistance seems dubious to me.

In the group "the People" are dumb, petty kunts galore capable of the same lack of professionalism.

I work with rich, dumb people who voted for Trump almost every day.
The dumb poor people with #MAGA stickers too.

What about it?

From a great height
He's looking down on his city at night
From gilded room
Of gold, marble, and soft perfume
And he's proud to say
He built his fortune the old fashioned way
Because to succeed
There's only one thing you really need

A million dollar loan
Nobody makes it on their own
Without a million dollar loan
You'll reap what you've sown
From a million dollar loan
Call your father on the phone
And get that million dollar loan

His enemies
Can't contain the flames of jealousy
With brutish charm
The women flock to be on his arm
Because it's a sign
Of weakness to apologize
And he counter sues
From any corner he's backed into

A million dollar loan
Nobody makes it on their own
Without a million dollar loan
To cast the first stone
You'll need a million dollar loan
Every ascension to a throne
Starts with a million dollar loan
A million dollar loan
Nobody makes it on their own
Without a million dollar loan
You'll reap what you've sown
From a million dollar loan
Call your father on the phone
And get that million dollar loan

A siren screams
Through the city as he falls asleep
The campaign
Begins again at the break of day

A million dollar loan
Nobody makes it on their own
Without a million dollar loan
To cast the first stone
You'll need a million dollar loan
Every ascension to a throne
Starts with a million dollar loan
A million dollar loan
Nobody makes it on their own
Without a million dollar loan
You'll reap what you've sown
From a million dollar loan
Call your father on the phone
And get that million dollar loan

What about it?
Are you a civil servant that has decision making responsibilities as to whether or not a project gets approved. If yes, do you use political beliefs as a determining factor in these decisions?

When I talk about people that I work with who are part of the resistance I’m talking about civil servants who are openly part of the resistance.

Just ask them, they’ll tell you.

What do you mean "openly" part of "resistance"?

They talk about it all day without being asked?

Everybody I work with, a client or my crew, know my political views only if politics becomes a topic of the conversation.

Like with religion, keep your beliefs to yourself and nobody gets hurt.

I worked with a great gaffer who's a Trump devotee and we knew better not to get in the discussion about it while on set, unless it's just harmless banter.

As for when when Trumptards I worked with/for say stupid sh!t on social media, it's fair game.

easily one of the best Talking Heads songs ever....it's on my bike ride mp3 bouillabaisse

I see the states, across this big nation
I see the laws made in Washington D.C
I think of the ones I consider my favorites
I think of the people that are working for me
Some civil servants are just like my loved ones
They work so hard and they try to be strong
I'm a lucky guy to live in my building
They own the buildings to help them along
I think about these lyrics a lot when we get in to the *clerks* arguments.

when you look at the people around you at any given time and you think
about all the different strokes in any given organization, large or small, the
notion of any large scale, coordinated conspiracy seems almost impossibly
unlikely.

I'll be working, working but if you come visit
I'll put down what I'm doing, my friends are important
where in the world is PPK?!?!?!
I've had 77 on the loop since 1977 :hat:

I love DB's deadpan humor. None of his stuff is political in an obvious way.

I don't know, probably Google conspiracy.

I've been always doing it the old fashioned way, copy the embed code, paste in the body of the message and turn on the HTML and UBBCode.

This also ensures that both people on mobile devices and computers can see it.

If you follow R32's tutorial, users on phones or tablets can't see it, though now, it doesn't work at all.
