FRIEND: "We're at risk of slipping into fascism."
ME: "Oh, honey . . . when they are arresting judges and mayors, we've already slipped."

Hello! How many times has the regime defied the constitution?
apparently there's a been a stealthy building of a federal HSI police force
Even if it wasn't the orange felon getting back into office, that was the end of the rule of law, and the welcome mat for the fascists.
But I have got 1 American friend here, who even though he's heard me ranting for years, still doesn't seem to get it. Our last convo b4 our election was me saying "we're fighting Nazis now" after what seemed like every topic.
It was more like me yelling "yeah, but we're FIGHTING NAZIS NOW!" "yeah, but WE'RE FIGHTING NAZIS NOW!" "yeah, BUT WE'RE FIGHTING NAZIS NOW!" over and over like a goddamn lunatic.
hrrrrrghh
The USA population voted FOR fascism.
And in Europe, we're not having it.
I hope, since we are fighting the same stupidity over here.
It's happening NOW. They've already criminalized the existence of trans people in a few places (like Floriduh), and are imprisoning tourists & anyone not "American enough"!
It's too late...
The U.S. was a fascist state long before judges and mayors were arrested. Like when Trump was selected by the billionaires. Or during bank bailouts. Or during corporate influence on politics...

Would think if it was a fascist dictatorship you wouldn't be allowed to call it a fascist dictatorship. Or protest en masse.
It's kind of like you're living in a state of phycosis.

We’re all in danger of being arrested unless we stand up against the abuse of power.
I know most of us get it, but this five minute read is also worth it for the snark alone.

‘Trump's frontal assault on democracy.’
On Dutch TV, English spoken.

Don't sit back and let this shit happen. Call your reps and let them know you're holding them personally responsible for all of this chaos. They need to be terrified of US not plump.

If they have become an enforcer, your near future will allow a myriad of non-violent options that can slow them down.
“Step 1: Purchase a ski mask/ balaclava helmet.”
Non-violent options to slow them down.
🤔
I know plenty of non-violent options...unfortunately, they're all illegal to some degree.
Try to break only the little ones.
And if enough (not really that many either) do the same, the courts will back up and will let most go scott free.
I like your bio. I never fit in either, so I mowed everything down and made a path for just for me. It's worked quite well.

"I dunno man, this seems like a slippery slope."

Even in Russia they have "show trials" where immigrants and political dissenters are "convicted".
Everyone: You're just being overly dramatic. Plus, you're not even American, what do you care?!

Time to take action will you show up and defend your freedom. We are stronger together. The rich wage war and it the poor who die.
Banning them is a sign too
Purging black people from federal Gov leadership
Rescinding permanent residency for speech
🌏💙🇺🇸🔥🪧✊️
the opposition is the important factor, if the oposition is weak - god help us
We're there, in the middle, in full flow.
Arresting judges & mayors & considering suspending Habeas Corpus (which means they are going to do it) is fascism.
The only question is what are we going to do about it
It is a great shame!
…or maybe it isn’t.
This is fascism- you don’t go to bed on Saturday and have fascism on Sunday - it’s bit by bit by bit and we are witnessing it in real time.
Fox News runs panels for 24 hours straight on why this is good for us
The real question is around how close we are to the point of no return… 🥺
Left un-cuffed, he will suspend the midterms.
We're not "quite there yet" because they haven't been personally affected.
Every single meeting until this country doesn’t make me weep when I read the news.
