“the homegrowns are next” - Mr. Donald J. Trump, April 2025

So we still think obeying judges is something the Trump admin intends to do, even now?

Any day now these consequences are going to start showing up, amirite guys?

Oh well, I’m sure Trump can just annex China along with Greenland and Canada. Don’t sweat it folks. Right after grocery prices come down, I’m sure.

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.

This is one of the things bothering me the most. Yeah yeah owned by billionaires who support Trump. But this is our media, it’s one of the things I grew up being taught helped preserve our democracy.

And yet they spent years sanewashing Trump and are now failing to adequately cover the resistance to Trump.

Are those principled folks who resigned publicly the only ones who remember why they are here?

critics are increasingly questioning whether rhetoric like Miller’s is a precursor to more aggressive suppression of dissent.

I dunno folks. we certainly don’t have any other examples of Trump policies or behavior that might support this notion. I’m glad they are just “increasingly questioning” it.

Maybe when the concentration camps start showing up on US soil that will be enough.

20% said both of their policies are equally to blame

What the fuck is wrong with 20% of respondents? I can understand blaming it on Biden better than I can understand this response.

Didn’t they US used to send special forces out to rescue people like that in the past?

That’s only when you have functioning institutions and a commander in chief that cares about people.

Daughter says it’s just the way the world works - life is unfair and the big dog eats the small dog.

See if you can get her to consider that the big dog at a place like her High School may very well be the small dog elsewhere. There is always someone smarter and hotter. She’s a big fish in that specific small pond.

Remembering there’s no guarantee she’s always the big dog might help her start to develop some empathy for the small dog. The initial impulse may be self-preservation, but maybe personal growth will flow from there.

Thanks!

raises fear that confidence in America is fading

Just now that fear is being raised?

Is there an article linked that I’m missing somehow?

Well some of those people will surely be brown and poor, so no way R is going to go for this.

Where the fuck are the, “Mah rights!” people now that the government is actually trampling on the constitution?

Let’s just cross out fingers mass deportation turns out to be the cheaper solution.

Well, if there’s any positive stereotype about Germans it’s that they are pretty good at efficiencies, and we know what their final solution was. I’m sure Trump won’t want to reinvent the wheel.

The rule 2 refers to the rule 2 of the instance, not the community, which is:

Ah that makes more sense.

The part you decided to show in the modlog is also a little deceptive.

I left that out not to be deceptive, but because it wasn’t germane to everything else, and it was an edit.

I have some news for you about how they will keep enough space in the camps.

You do realize you don’t have to assume and can just look at the modlog, right?
