Exactly. This is a logical fallacy so many people fall for. It’s employed effectively against lazy thinkers and MAGA cultists. This “othering” is what made the holocaust possible as well and the other mass murdering of that time and throughout the 20th cent. Bring Garcia HOME!

Any pro-democracy organizations need a solid writer, data analyst, system admin? Because I just found out my job is getting cut. Fuck Donald Trump. Fuck Elon Musk. Fuck the GOP. Fuck SCOTUS. And most importantly, fuck every last one of you pathetic mouthbreathing morons that voted for this.

Everyone can be bad except the people that punched cops, vandalized into the seat of government, and smeared feces on the walls. They're true American heroes.

This is where we are headed. If you don’t believe me, ask what basis the government had to send me and my family to a prison camp in Arkansas. We “looked like the people who bombed Pearl Harbor.”

The entire POINT is to cultivate an obedient press and docile population that accepts accusations without pushback. The fact that the administration’s accusations are increasingly overtly ass-damp is a feature, not bug.

Steve Kerr: "I believe in academic freedom. I think it's crucial for all of our institutions to be able to handle their own business the way they want to. And they should not be shaken down and told what to teach, what to say, by our government. That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard."

The DOJ lawyer who made the mistake of answering the court's questions about Abrego-Garcia candidly (eg yes he was mistakenly deported, a fact the Administration already has acknowledged), which got him put on administrative leave, has now been fired, ending his 15-year DOJ career..

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror
