Ramp up the pressure.
Oh no…
“Won’t somebody think of the Gestapo!!???”
That’s the point, shithead
more ‘difficult’ and ‘dangerous’
Here’s hoping that the protests make the raids impossible.
Chears to that
That’s the fucking point dip shit. People don’t like what you’re doing and they’re trying to stop you. How fucking thick could you be?
“WOW People sure don’t like being detained and deported with no due process. I really thought they’d just give up!”
Fucking dumbasses are doing all this fascist shit and they’re not even doing it right. It’s not even going to result in a fascist regime, just a bunch of dead people. What a colossal waste all in the name of greed.
Fucking dumbasses are doing all this fascist shit and… It’s not even going to result in a fascist regime
I’m not sure what you mean by this. If it walks like a duck then it’s a duck
Steps like a goose might be more apt in this case.
I’m going to borrow this going forward. Thanks!
What I took from it is they’re LARPing as fascists doing fashy things, but they’re not operating under the same level of competence that more successful fascist regimes do. It’s about a bunch of overweight pigs that can’t even pass a physical, putting on a German helmet and bossing people around, while being too fucking stupid to be capable of believing in anything let alone even know what they’re doing.
I think that idea that Nazis were evil geniuses is part of the problem. Perhaps a handful of the top party leaders could be reasonably described that way but by and large your average Nazi was as exactly as dumb as your modern Republican. Although you probably have a point about the fat content of the two groups.

Actually, “successful” fascist regimes don’t tend to be anywhere near as efficient as history teaches us.
A combination of their own propaganda persisting in spite of being debunked (for example the trains in Mussolini’s Italy did NOT in fact tend to run on time) and a natural tendency in humans to conflate monstrous ruthlessness with efficiency means that historical fascists get a lot of unearned credit.
Being stupid and incompetent ISN’T inherently incongruous with being fascist.
In spite of the dominant narratives of both themselves and their opponents, fascism often if not always contain kakistocratic elements as “true believer” isn’t synonymous with “truly cunning and effective”
Conclusion: the Trump regime IS a fascist regime by any objective criteria, none of which is “everyone is competent”
With all the amazing 5D chess moves being made like artificially inducing a recession if not a full depression, forcefully deporting the back bone of your labor force, extremely anemic manufacturing, massive brain drain, jailing everyone, and pretending that somehow the US is going to dominate the world with absolutely 0 diplomacy skills while burning all bridges to every alliance, I agree with that statement. It will all collapse into a civil war before they hit the end game of some dictator regime. The economy will be dead, and it will be a dark age in the western hemisphere. Not dark as is in depressing, but as in nothing happens because it will take probably a century to pass before anything starts to recover. These morons are going to be in the streets with the rest of us, picking at what’s left of the country by forming tribes of raiders. Basically the plot every of every book that warned us about this future since the late '40’s.
The revolution will not be televised.
WOW People sure don’t like being detained and deported with no due process. I really thought they’d just give up!
I mean… given the US’s track record for resisting fascism, this isn’t an unreasonable expectation
What country has managed to resist fascism without military intervention from an outside source?
You are expecting Americans to do something that has never been done. The US Civil War doesn’t count, because while those people would have eventually turned to fascism, in the moment they were all about slavery and states rights, not corporate rights.
And given your username, you have far more abilities to destroy the US government than the rest of us.
I’m expecting Americans to do the ONE thing they’ve been LOUDLY insisting for a full goddamn century makes them so exceptional.
I’m utterly shocked to discover it was just a bunch of dipshits taking credit for something their ancestors might have done.
This is such an insane and imaginative comment. Are the century old Americans that talk to you in the room with you right now? It’s absolutely crazy how you’ve taken some individual comments or perceived attitudes and created this fantasy land where you now have “owned the dipshits”. Let’s ignore the assassination attempts, current and planned protests going on through-out the country, people getting arrested for standing up for their fellow citizens, LUIGI!!, the college protests going on for months/years, this is such a selective memory you’re touting. This isn’t like the UK/Scotland police that just sit there peacefully (5 people were there initially and stopped their immigration enforcement per the article). Yet still we have hundreds and thousands of people still showing up and continuing to fight while you whine and complain online.
Holy shit, your entire engagement in this site is just comments about American “cowards”. Why haven’t you tried to immigrate and show Americans how it’s really done since you’re such a mister big boy bad ass? You seem to care enough to removed about it everyday but not do anything about it?
Please, write more. Dying to hear what you have to say.
What country has managed to resist fascism without military intervention from an outside source?
Didn’t fascism simmer down in South Korea, Taiwan, South Africa, Spain, and Portugal?
Only after the deaths of the figureheads who brought it about in the first place.
One of them said back in October of last year, “This will be a bloodless coup, as long as the Democrats allow it to happen.”
Good.
Have you considered not terrorizing innocent people then?
that sounds a lot like communism, and we can’t have that!
A ringing endorsement for more protests
trying to change the narrative to use more lethal force,
Quick message to all the pigs. None of you are officers. None of you are anything but gang members. In about 50-60% of your cases, that is literal, because you joined a gang inside the police force.
You started the “war on cops.” You perpetuated the “war on cops” for four decades, despite all evidence to the contrary. You now commit the majority of assaults, theft, murder, rape, and accomplice covering up. The criminals you catch manage less than half of the crimes you commit.
You MADE your job harder by abandoning the people, and embracing a fictitious warzone.
Especially well documented in LA.
Sounds like they are achieving their goal.
Dear police,
Your job is not meant to be “easy.”
You job directly ruins the lives and livelihoods of individuals disproportionately to any ‘crimes’ that they may allegedly commit. Because of the power you wield and the damage that it causes, it is only right that your job should be difficult.
That difficulty is inherent to ensure that people are protected and that you follow all necessary procedures. That difficulty is to make sure that when you arrest someone, that you are sure they have committed a crime.
Your job should be harder, not easier!
Sincerely, Bryg Philomena
Your raids are making it more difficult and dangerous to be a citizen going about their fucking business walking home. They’re making it more difficult to be a business by shaking down tourists and customers. They’re making it more difficult to be in a safe neighborhood, with illegal kidnappings happening on the streets. They’re making it more difficult to be an American, watching the government attacking students in classrooms. They’re making it more difficult to be a human watching them separate parents from children with no recourse.
If it’s making it more difficult we need more of it
