We all knew shit was gonna hit the fan when Trump won his second term, but this, I don't think anyone saw this coming.
I did. Lots of people did. Remember when we called him Hitler? That wasn't for no reason.
Just another day in trumpistan, Americans here will somehow still attempt to deflect everything about their dogshit failed state
Anyone who was wondering what the pixelated text is about.
Nope, I saw much worse coming. Barbarity of the sentence aside, he's still convicted and sentenced to die.
I honestly thought by this point we'd be executing political dissidents on live TV.
Give them time. They have two more years to go.
I'm interested in what they're going to use as their Reichstag Fire.
After the midterms get rigged (ICE at polling stations, a multinational mercenary group at USPS warehouses, Trump supporters in election certification offices, etc.), some leftist accelerationist expecting to get killed anyway will probably provide a Reichstag Fire. The Trump administration will have national security agencies look the other way like the Bush administration did with the warnings about 9/11, and voilá, the current amount of surveillance will "be insufficient to stop the threat from within".
As for the specific terrorist attack they'll let slip through the net - I don't know. Maybe let the white house get bombed so all of it will need to be rebuilt in a grander style. Maybe let the VP get assassinated so some unelected billionaire puppet can take his place and take over when Trump croaks. Maybe there are few enough terrorists that they'll let most plans through, or maybe they'll do a false flag to have full control.
I saw much worse coming.
They're not done yet...
The only surprising thing about this is that they didn't rent out a football stadium to sell tickets to the execution. How benevolent to livestream it.
I saw this and more coming … in 1999. (That was the year I decided I would never willingly set foot on US soil ever again.)
Yeah, you can't make this shit up. I feel sorry for all the normal Americans.
I don't. They decided to sleepwalk their way into this. I knew what was coming for the USA in a single visit to Houston in 1999. I could hear the jackboots marching in lockstep from just around the corner down the block. Americans of my acquaintance, when I expressed that nervousness, told me I was being "alarmist" … and kept telling me that as the post-9/11 phase started with the not even slightly ominous-sounding "Department of Homeland Security", the "PATRIOT Act", the explosion of racism when a black president was elected, the whole Tea Party fiasco, etc. etc. etc.
Now the same people who went for a nice stroll in their sleep are waking up to what they let grow all around them.
I agree. I don't either, fk you Americans.
This meme, but every fucking day. Sometimes multiple times a day. This is now our shared reality.
Going back to the 1800s.

Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
