  • If you’re honestly asking that, you haven’t been paying attention.

    Trump has openly said he would be a dictator on day one of his presidency. He told American Christians that they won’t have to worry about voting again, and that he’d take care of all that. Republicans control the house, the senate, the presidency, and the supreme court. There is no one to appeal to when he tries (and he WILL try) to take complete control. And legal challenges will be brought before the SCOTUS, who will rule in his favour.

    Freedom will not win by following the old rules. Those rules are gone. They were killed by Trump and his MAGA mob.










  • Do they plan to go down the line and just keep choosing groups to demonize?

    Yes, absolutely. Fascism requires an “out group” to demonize and scapegoat, and an “in group” that sticks together to hold their power. It’s an us-vs-them thing that only works if you’ve got a them to be the enemy. They’ll go down the list of minorities persecuting them as they go. Today it’s immigrants, trans, and pregnant women. Once they’re taken care of they can move into the rest, like Muslims (from Trump’s first presidency), gay people, and likely atheists, intellectuals/academics, the disabled, etc.

    The Nazis in Germany did exactly the same thing the American Nazis are about to do.
