love the precedent... assuming any of us get to vote ever again

[–] radiofreebc@lemmy.world 45 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Americans won't be voting again.

[–] neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works 27 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Not with ballots at least.

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 3 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Just change the one letter.

I think you have to change all the vowels.

Nostradamus rules. Galleons. So, they're saying that we're bring back the age of sail.

[–] Nougat@fedia.io 2 points 14 hours ago

Gideons, with the Bibles.

[–] smayonak@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

With fewer ballots. They are using the massive databases provided by DOGE to build a national voter database. Then they are using a primitive system of voter registration to challenge the validity of voters who might vote against the Maga party.

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 2 points 15 hours ago

So many of them didn't vote when they could have anyway lol

[–] wagesj45@fedia.io 56 points 19 hours ago

How would they even do that? Every right-wing weirdo that I've seen that cares that much about city life has been so scared of the "crime" and "ghetto" there they won't step foot in the city lines.

collapsed inline mediaA parody Halloween costume package from "Spirit" features the title "Conservative Guy Scared of Cities." The image shows a bearded man in a tactical-style "Nine Line" shirt posing confidently. Text on the package humorously lists features of the costume: "Saw that thing on the news," "Too many of 'those' people there," "Can’t park Ford Super Duty," and "Not scared, bro." The costume is labeled as "Adult Size Costume – One Size Fits Most."

New Yorkers throw riots when you try to stop us from smoking weed or sucking dick in a gay bar. You trying to take over our shit? And we will fuck the federal government up.

Don’t try us. There hasn’t been a single civil rights uprising in New York that didn’t make anyone who tried to intercede regret their actions.

[–] andallthat@lemmy.world 7 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

although, if Trump wants to take over sucking dick in a gay bar..... I mean, he does have a lot of experience with Putin and Netanyahu

Prepare the underground. The rat king shall have a fascist feast.

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world -3 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Within the already accepted fascism tho.

[–] floo@retrolemmy.com 5 points 19 hours ago (2 children)
[–] TheFogan@programming.dev 9 points 17 hours ago

I'm assuming it's reffering to the fact that, there already is some level of facism around... stop and frisk certainly got some protests, but not exactly perfect.

[–] quetzaldilla@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

They're saying we collectively as Americans tolerate a certain amount of fascism instead of fighting all of it.

[–] CCMan1701A@startrek.website 31 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

what could possibly happen that the mayor of NYC is going to do that causes issues for the rest of America? I'm at a total loss to why the federal government is concerned about. Someone please help me understand as I haven't been following this topic too closely.

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 66 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago) (1 children)

The next mayor of NYC is probably a brown Muslim guy that wants to show how government can work by helping people. He’s clearly the most dangerous man in America and must be stopped.

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 15 points 13 hours ago

Trump has yet to successfully run anything in his life.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 13 points 10 hours ago

Trump couldn’t take over a bowl of ice cream from a child.

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 12 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

something something small government... federal overreach... oppression

[–] WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 6 hours ago

America takes over America to ensure it is run by Americans.

[–] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 11 points 18 hours ago

D.C. Washington D.C. Not Washington state.

[–] bender223@lemmy.today 9 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

trump's fat lazy ass always suggesting shit, tryin' cause stochastic terrorism 🤦

[–] quetzaldilla@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

He just sounds like a lunatic to me. I'm not even scared, just angry at this neverending circus when we need to be saving the planet.

[–] skozzii@lemmy.ca 9 points 6 hours ago

Trump is trying to speed run a civil war.

Anyone that doesn't understand what's been happening is daf.

Anyone that isn't budgeting and spending as much as they can on guns, etc and defense... Is daf. You're buying the next videogame, you're buying an overpriced coffee? You're buying some novelty item... This isn't a game and this isn't a drill... It can quickly be too late. Honestly it already is because for centuries we fed this beast as if we were praising a god.

Once this gets bigger, it's not going to just be an American issue... With the internet.... Now we are looking at a world wide civil war for honest genuine humanity. This is big enough that it's not an American problem, it's a world problem, a humanity problem.

Quit pretending some protest or some government ideology or anyone at all is going to save you... Only you can save yourself.

War has been happening... Politically, psychologically... It's time to dominate our reality.

It's time to maybe understand all of this is fucked up. Like nations across the world... ...that were once seen with pride... Are now the enemy of humanity.

If your nation is collaborating with America in any way... you may be at risk.
