In a sane country people would be ripping the piping from their walls to use as weapons against a regime like this. Instead most people just don't notice or don't care. I actually don't see a future for my country anymore...

~people aren't doing anything~
literally millions of Americans organizing nationwide protests and resistance events, uniting with friends and co-workers to strategize, with larger and larger turnouts with each passing week....
🤔🤔🤔
Oooh are they holding signs?
First you organize millions across the country in protests. This is no small feat. Once you see you have the numbers, you organize a strike.
People would know this if they attended. It's discussed often.
Which is not nothing but there's a point there.
I haven’t seen a future for this country for a while now
I was hopeful that after 2020 we had learned our lesson but I was gravely mistaken...
Sadly we have to watch this dumpster fire go on while either planning to pick up the pieces once it’s over or you make a run for the border in hopes of saving yourself
I'm not gonna let myself be bullied out of my home by God's biggest losers. I'm in a blue state so I'll be okay for now. I'm also armed so I'll be okay if or when shit hits the fan. I dont blame people who do leave but for me that's just not in the cards.
I don’t live in a blue state sadly, I can’t trust myself with a weapon because I know what would happen if I had one. So for me, I have to consider leaving everything behind just to be safe
We knew they wanted to go in a fascist direction, but I doubt many of us imagined they'd have the concentration camps up and running within three months. Bukele says he won't return anyone, even if innocent, from this prison in El Salvador, and the director of the prison says that no one who goes in will ever return to their community. So how do you keep shipping prisoners into a camp without any of them coming out, and without the camp filling up? Maybe we're further along with the Nazi program than most people realize.
We're on pace with Nazi Germany. If you use that as a template you'll expect:
- Concentration camps in about 60 days (milestone reached)
- October we're due to leave the UN/NATO
- Draft coming in 2027 if Trump remains in power
- In 2030 we'll annex Greenland
- By September 2031 we will start WW3
Now a lot can change between now and then and Trump isn't a young guy, but that's the blueprint to watch.
You want to talk about concentration camps? We're already expanding our own Black Site.
America has the highest incarceration rate in the world. The average maximum security prison holds 800-1200 prisoners. The largest, Angola, LA, holds over 8000.
Our most famous black site, Guantanamo Bay, located in CUBA (WTF?), currently holds about 120, but that's about to change. HitlerPig has already signed an executive order to build a 30,000 bed detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, and a $249 billion contract has been awarded. This will be in a remote corner of an island controlled by a hostile enemy, far out of the prying view of the courts, or the media. Anything could happen there, and nobody at home would ever known about it.
So they are now building a facility there, that will hold 30,000 prisoners. That's nearly 4 times our largest prison, which is already about 8 times larger than average. Clearly, they are intending to incarcerate far many people that they already do. I wonder who those people will be?
Perhaps the most worrisome piece of news is this: It is expected to be finished in 2030. Why would HitlerPig commit to such a facility if he wasnt going to be able to use it? Perhaps he expects to still be in power in 2030.
No. No I’m not allowing “I doubt many people knew this would happen” no. Plenty of us did nothing but scream for decades. You shooed us away. You sided with them because we were inconvenient to you.
You're saying "you" to the people that were shouting it. You're shouting into an echo chamber. Maybe go say it to them
I mean even people who were screaming didn't think American democracy would start falling this quickly. I mean did you expect him to start arresting dissenters within a month and a half of his inauguration?
I mean did you expect him to start arresting dissenters within a month and a half of his inauguration?
Actually, yes. Absolutely. I read portions of P2025. I expected the insurrection act and martial law to happen by now, though. Not sure why it didn't occur after the Hands Off demonstrations, except perhaps it would have meant more publicity and lent credibility to the opposition, which seems to have been intentionally ignored and marginalized by major media so far.
I will say, even despite me being the one constantly yelling about the incoming american fascism, I also though it'd take at least a little longer
But here we are, with most institutions and companies just rolling over. Sure, I figured it would happen, but I at least thought it'd take more than a year. Not.. 3 months
It's.. I lack words, even. This is straight up nazi Germany, except we have the hindsight of history, and yet it's still all for naught. Incredibly incredibly scary
Isn’t Trump a convicted criminal? There would be a lot of happier people if they just sent him to El Salvador.
With none of that pesky due process to determine who these "criminals" are I suppose.
And of course we will never see these people again. This is so blatently illegal its fucking mind blowing.
47 doesn't GaF. He's already ignoring UNANIMOUS scotus rulings. The law has failed. Nobody in power is willing to enforce anything.
Thank fuck i dont live in that shit hole
my reddit account of 11 years got permabanned last week for saying something similar
He *IS" a convicted, homegrown, American criminal himself! Literally.
at what point is this not just a reactionary coup - the president's complete disregard of the Supreme Court's ruling and the Constitution means the United States of America is over, no? I mean, whatever this government is, it's no longer operating by the fundamental rules and laws that established this country, that define this government - this is a new, autocratic government operating by different rules.
Americans, either fix your shit, or start thinking about how to get out, before the big beautiful wall keeps you in.
Does anyone else feel so un-motivated at work ever since Trump became president? I can't sleep sometimes with the anxiety. I don't even want to try to be anything in this American society anymore if it means a criminal can be President. What's the point? Bad always wins. Good always suffers.
Buy a gun. Train.
Get connected with others. Make sure they get armed. Train with them.
All part of the Orange Turds plan for America. MAGAts have turned America into a horror movie.
Yep, Project 2025 wasn't exaggerated at all. We all knew this would happen.
But I'm gonna blame Biden, Harris and AIPAC for blowing up the liberal-progressive coalition and alienating working class Americans with high inflation.
How do you lose 6 million voters from 2020 to 2024. That's just insane.
Half of them went to Trump, the other half stayed home.
Madness
He can declare them criminals with his mind. More efficient than a trial.
This is very much how it's going to happen.
MAGA are going straight to Krystallnacht, but it’s ok because Bernie went to Coachella.
Hey we should all discuss it at length yet not actually do anything about it. Go team 'murica.
What else do you expect from a shit hole country
This will also trigger a break down in law .... it's basically capital punishment ... break the law and you're out.
So to many people who see the writing on the wall .. if you're going to be punished severely, why not do as much as possible while you can before you're ejected ... or ride the lawbreaking for as long as you can until you get caught because you're screwed anyway
America is going down in flames
