The State Vs Dissidents: Jan 2020

From Jan 2020, Mindlessly Possible responses to a survey, after witnessing the State clamp down on the rising Dissidents...

Thank you for the congratulations on your new President’s historic win!

Here are the official, legal, State-approved responses to your questions!

If you have further questions, please consult any of the State-Approved Information Outlets.

Can I borrow the #NotMyPresident hashtag or is that reserved for President Trump?

We apologize for any confusion, but the #NotMyPresident hashtag is only permitted when referencing a non-career politician who may seem to have been duly elected but does not act presidential and does not conform to Party Standards. Any career politician claiming to have been duly elected (whether proven or otherwise) can be referenced by the #YesMyPresident hashtag, assuming they conform to Party Standards. 

Who do I contact to see if Republicans are boycotting the Inauguration, like the Democrats did for President Trump?

To contact a ‘Republican’ (outdated term) use any of the approved communication platforms. Know that whether you address your concern to a Republican or Democrat, communications will be received and processed by the same Party member. The terms ‘Republican’ and ‘Democrat’ are cosmetic only, as there is only one actual Party.

Boycotting one of our official Inauguration events is no longer a permissible option and this behavior is no longer supported. Update your protocols, please.

Do I have to accept the election results, or can I cry for four years, claiming election interference?

Crying is generally permitted, whether you accept Party Political Progress or not, though public dancing and music will be forbidden in a future update. The only exception is that crying or other negative behaviors are NOT permitted during occasions of visiting tourists or foreign dignitaries.

Am I entitled to see Biden’s tax returns to learn how his income jumped dramatically in one year (I mean, we all know how and why. Just show the proof.)?

Financial matters and dealings pertaining to Party Executives are not relevant. Such matters are extremely relevant however, when exposing Dissidents.

Am I allowed to trash anything that Biden says, without repercussion, because I’m just expressing myself?

Expressions that are deemed critical of Party Policy or Operatives are not contained within the protected ‘Freedom of Speech’ privilege bestowed upon the public by the Party . Repercussions follow a 3-Strike pattern

First Offense: critical content deleted and public pressure delivered by Party Operatives

Second Offense: deplatforming and loss of electronic communications

Third and Final Offense: admittance into Social Exclusion Program

Is there a sign-up somewhere for riots, do organizers call me, or how does that work, since I didn’t get my way?

If you plan to protest for any State-approved reason, no application process is necessary. though we advise contacting all Approved Media Outlets to utilize their services for maximum positive exposure. Additionally, if your protest is to contain any physically dynamic elements, materials may be provided to you by any of the State’s approved contractors.

If you plan to protest for any non-approved reason, this may only take the form of a’ ‘silent protest’ and must include no more persons than your immediate family, with each person Socially Distanced. For the exact Social Distance required (in metric units) download the free State-Approved Social Distance App. Know that these measurements may change at any time.

Are businesses targeted because they supported Biden, or do I just pick a business that has something I want to take home?

All businesses will provide whatever you need, assuming your requirements do not exceed State Maximums.  A business is defined as a product or service provider enrolled within the Party Affiliation Business Program, whereby the State has a controlling interest. An establishment that is not enrolled in the program will be given exactly 10 days to cease operations.

Were the thousands of businesses that boarded up for fear of riots, for Conservatives or Liberals? If they were for Conservatives, did I miss the riots already???

In the past, businesses had extra security provisions due to unstable Dissident factions.  As all businesses must now be enrolled in the Party Affiliation Business Program, they will also benefit from added State Security when deemed necessary, or mandatory closures when necessary. Protests are allowed only for approved Party reasons (as explained in answer to question 6). NOTE: In some circumstances, if a potential business refuses to enroll in the Party Affiliation Business Program, the State will assist in sponsoring protests against them.

Where are the safe spaces at? Is there a map or something? I may need to go cry for a little while (because of how stupid our country has become).

The safest place is locked within your own domicile, where you may exhibit emotions of choice. Maps are deemed unnecessary as the Total GPS system will instruct and direct you in all travel matters, if such travel is approved.

ASIDE:

Please be assured the Party is Smart, therefore the Nation is Smart.

Does all the free stuff your party has promised, just come or do I have to quit my job first?

Everything you need will be provided in exact quantities in accordance with State Mandates. No more, no less.  Do not quit your employment unless your employer has refused to enroll in the Party Affiliation Business Program, in which case, you must quit immediately and report the business to authorities.

What is the address you guys have been sending all that extra tax money to, since you think people aren’t paying enough in taxes? I’m sure you have been voluntarily sending in more than required...

All tax payments must be made to the State Collections Bureau as usual. If you cannot pay your required tax, your next of kin must fulfill your tax obligation.

Remitting excess payment is always encouraged, but will not reduce future obligations.

When my 401K crashes, will the President Elect make up for that in give-a-ways, or am I just screwed?

The State cannot guarantee the security of any investments you make, but can guarantee you will need to remit tax payments at increasingly frequent intervals. Note that taxes may also include bills for State-Owned services, such as internet and phone services, entertainment services, health services, mandatory charities and more.

Since Socialism is what you just voted in, if my neighbor has something I want, do I just take it or do I have to let him know I’m taking it (Personally, I have had my eye on the brand NEW Mercedes SUV, a couple of doors down ... Biden sign in yard.)

As previously noted, everything you need will be provided in exact quantities in accordance with State Mandates. No more, no less. 

If a neighbor has materials beyond their allowed share, you must report them immediately to the nearest Party Operative for enforcement actions.

In addition, if a neighbor has been deemed a Dissident, they must forfeit all of their possessions to you. If necessary, State Enforcers will assist in this transition.

NOTE: The Party is not defined as a Socialist System. It has been defined as a True Democracy. If this, or any other definition is to be changed, you will be notified.

When gas gets unaffordable, is there an EBT card for that?

The purchase of fuel by individual citizens is outlawed. 

Only Party Executives and approved Transportation Operatives may acquire fuel for official use.

A Transport ID comes included in your Party Membership Pack and may be used on all Public Transport System if your requested travel is approved.

I have seen the gatherings of Conservatives protesting the election results, but something is wrong, nothing is getting destroyed. Did you guys go to a class for that, or could you provide some pointers on how to do it right, please?

Destructive events are only permitted during State-Approved Protests. For any assistance in planning and executing such a Protest, a contingent of Seemingly Unorganized Random Brats can be made available to provide motivational force. 

The Conservative gatherings were dubbed super spreader events, yet the protests and now election gatherings by Liberals, are not. Did you guys secretly come out with the vaccine?

Protests of any size are allowed for State-Approved reasons (as explained above) and are considered more critical to the Nation’s Health and Welfare than medical threats such as viral infection. However, the critical nature of medical threats will be adjusted on an ongoing basis.

NOTE: Medical threats will always be prioritized over the gatherings of Dissidents.

Funny how the CDC has come up with a vaccine, soon after you were pronounced the President Elect. Can you, all your family, and colleagues take it first, to ensure it works?

Be assured, Party Executives have access to the most advanced and immediate care so the Nation may always be kept safe.

So, now you are the President Elect and soon to be President Biden, Is every death now on you, or is it President Trump's responsibility, just at your convenience?

Our experts have concluded that the reckless actions that Dissidents display on a daily basis, endangering our society, result in needless harm and casualties. These Dissidents must always be held accountable. 

In contrast, the careful and considered actions of Party Members (especially Executives) sometimes include life-changing decisions that cannot be avoided. These Good Citizens must be celebrated for their bravery in the face of challenges. 

During Biden's State of the Union Address, is Nancy going to tear up the speech on national television, or does she only do that with President Trump?

Party Executive speeches are not subject to vandalization of any type, as Executives rely on those materials to deliver Great Speeches.

By contrast, radical outbursts by Dissidents must be reported, and any associated materials destroyed immediately as to prevent harm to the public.
