The Donald vs Big Tech

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff for policy and homeland security advisor, refers to the opposition as a "domestic extremist organization" while the White House pushes to have Democrat-majority US cities placed under martial (and ICE) law:

How far might we see things move towards an actual attempt to outlaw the opposition?

Scary fucking stuff. This will have to backfire on the cunt, if not among the Magaheads, certainly among the swing voters. Then again... Americans.

Same thing happened in Germany with AFD and not an eyelid batted, but sure, when the left labels the right as extremists it's to "protect democracy", whereas if the right labels the left as extremists its "fascism".

Saw it described as a slow coup earlier. He's normalising the military in blue cities while the highest 3 crime rates are in reds and nothing is being done.

I genuinely think the US is fucked for all time, its bodywork has been poked with a screwdriver and you can see that its all filler with rust working away beneath, the "checks and balances" that are "in place" are not worth a fuck and even if Trump was gone tomorrow 70+ million people voted for him even after his first term fiasco. Its a fucking mess and we need to cut loose from it as much as is practically possible.

It is sort of two cheeks of the same arse in a lot of ways.

Yeah, but in an actually grounded in reality way, what's happening with MAGA absolutely is dictatorship territory, both in terms of the way they act against all opposition, and also in terms of the unprecedented levels of sycophancy towards dear leader:

In every way, two wings of the same bird, and the bird is irrevocably retarded.
Just for clarity, I don't buy into this left\right, divide and conquer  bollox at all. (It's very useful for winding people up for the craic though).
There's a bit of left and right in all of us, personal philosophy is rarely absolute.

Fucking fact.

I see his latest buzz is "I'm the president and I can do whatever I want".

Speed ran his way to openly being a dictator.

Hasn't it always been that?

Yeah I think there are more people falling to the fringe the last few years though on both sides. I've an awful lot of left leaning ideas myself but it has always been thus really and I've often mentioned the switcheroo that happened a few years ago with a lot of this stuff like I think the maga lads would absolutely buy communism if Trump sold it rather than think about it but the same for the left before that with Biden etc. we're still not like that here thank God but there are shades of it
