    The political shootings were done by Republicans. So, clearly people against fascism are labeled terrorists. That’s pure logic.

    The fascist terrorists are classifying everyone else as terrorists like the little pissbaby fuckfaces they are.

    “Politics is war without bloodshed, while war is politics with bloodshed.”

    -misattributed to Mao, but it makes the point

    For the sake of history, its worth noting that it wasn’t the left taking the non-violent options off the table. Just saying. When you see this happen, consider it in the context of something like the war in Iran. When the administration does things like this, they do so without a plan and without consideration for the consequences.

      Honestly, that is one of the few saving graces of the entire situation. It will make it much easier for genuine resistance to succeed, if only because these evil bastards are innately clumsy.

    I long for the good old days when terrorists were the easily identified FOB European settlers

      This is the way. Get armed. Not because you want to enact violence but because you want to protect yourself and eventually they will find some trumped up reason to take away gun or ammo rights. You don’t by a sword to become a highway man. You do it because there are already highway men with swords. It’s a form of power.

        I actually know a few “lefties” that thought guns are stupid killing machines and nobody should have them years ago. After the first trump administration they all took an about face and are now pro gun and think we should all be armed. Our government should live in fear of us. They are there to serve and protect us, and we are the ones feeding them to make it possible. Instead they take our money and give socialism to their billionaire buddies corporations or send it to Israel or bomb random countries. We should not live in fear of our authoritarian regime, it’s time to turn the tables. Don’t tread on our freedom 🇺🇸 and don’t tread on sovereign nations because u want their resources. Time the USA pulls itself up from the bootstraps instead of taking from countries that don’t have the bloated military budgets to defend themselves.

      What’s so disturbing to me is that all the conspiracy theory nutballs I’ve known, the ones who…

      • are hardcore preppers who said the economy was due to collapse into a post-apocalyptic dystopia anytime a Dem is in the white house

      • kept talking about the FEMA death camps at former railway hubs with barbed wire fences pointing inwards

      • think black helicopters are running urban pacification drills in cities

      • keep being up giant fields being leased by the govt to store nothing but thousands of plastic coffins

      • never shut up about “jackboot” “police states” during the entirety of Obama and Biden terms

      They were all either hardcore right-wingers or simple “never trust the govt” types who suddenly started wearing maga hats

        They are not necessarily against those things in principle, even within their own country. They just don’t want to be the targets of it. Probably some, whether they are being honest with themselves for the reason or not, are wrapping themselves in MAGA for safety, then convincing themselves it’s the Good Side by accepting the propaganda.

        Which is neither to excuse any other group for accepting propaganda nor to assert Both Sides in any way.

    If you haven’t already, I would start talking to your neighbors and organizing.

    We already know the camps exist, and if you’ve seen some of the images that have been leaked you’ll know the conditions are inhumane and cruel. These new labels can be applied to anyone, for any reason. And make no mistake, you don’t even have to be in left-wing spaces to be accused and disappeared. So it’s not just you in danger, it’s everybody around you. It’s your co-workers, your family, your friends. All it takes is a wrong place, wrong time.

    Organize now, before you don’t have that option anymore.

      I actually looked up when trump won on DDG if an administration could see who you voted for. “No” I was told. Cool.

      And now all the States just handed over voter data to the administration.
