Like dude, we saw you not get hit by the car. We saw you shoot a fleeing woman 3 times in the face. We saw you without your mask. And no amount of attempts to justify your disregard for life will bring her back or make you look any less guilty in the court of public opinion, you wretched ghoul.
Oh I saw today that apparently they're now looking for VOLUNTEERS to help with their occupation of minneapolis. a googleable leftist journalist was offered a job just by applying. bro they don't have the numbers and they're literally not able to select good candidates.
more to this point, hitler actually had to dissolve the brownshirts bc they made him look bad since they literally were just a bunch of hateful ruffians with nothing better to do. they are making more of a headache for the regime than actually enacting their goals.
that's all i got for today, but i'll add more if/when I need to. fascism needs you to believe it's inevitable. they want you to lose hope. don't do their job for them.
that last one isn't that impressive when the gop just ignored the law that required them to hang it for years. but the timing is telling. the party is openly defying the once-unopposable donald trump. they aren't just leaking anymore, they're going on the record contradicting him.
thru all of this, the Senate finally hung a plaque honoring the Capitol police who were hurt defending from 1/6. y'know, 1/6? the thing trump pardoned 1200 ppl for doing? the insurrection incited by the guy that lost the election he can't admit he lost? trump can't get them to bend anymore.
also, people are not only resisting ICE's presence but they keep being ridiculed, and vids like that one loser agent slipping on ice become viral instantly. their egos are fragile and they have no actual strength of character, only have 47 days of training & can't do sit-ups or pass open-book tests.
oh another thing about ICE, the brownshirts didn't have to wear masks. we all have cameras. they identified johnathan ross (renee good's murderer) in hours. he had to flee the state w/ poorly disguised masked goons filmed removing things from ross' house. he's basically blacklisted from public life.
they still can't get that much to actually stick to luigi mangione bc, even if he did kill the guy, the police are such obedient lapdogs to capital that they didn't do the actual legal steps necessary to have the actual supposed evidence be admissible in court. also his givesendgo has raised $1.3mm.
and do you really expect the cringe factory known as jd vance to take the reins of the trump cult of personality? noted short, petulant snot that definitely deserved to be bullied, stephen miller? mike i-monitor-my-teenage-son's-masturbation johnson? these doofuses don't have the sauce.
trump will die. this is an objective fact. he has been corroding before our eyes and can barely keep it together long enough to remember not to be so obviously corrupt that he reads a note passed to him by marco rubio OUT LOUD to speak w/ chevron while at a meeting about venezuelan oil. yes really.
the regime is aware they're on the clock, or else they wouldn't be racheting up the rhetoric and violence like this. a single white woman being murdered causing *this* much uproar is an objectively bad thing for a regime that keeps failing at silencing dissent and trying to posture as "in control"
zohran mamdani is the acting mayor of the generally undisputed most-important city in the country and he's already been enforcing the housing laws that ghouls like eric adams just never got around to getting to. many places around the country have loudly rejected the gop's bullshit.
judges have been a consistent thorn in the side of the regime and continue to put brakes on most of trump's plans. if you really look at the record, trump and co. broke a lot of things but they haven't actually gotten much done. it'll take a lot of work to rebuild the country, but it can be done.
...further, there are 2 million more epstein records (not documents, RECORDS, meaning files with potentially multiple pages of documents) that they literally don't have enough people to comb through them. impeachment proceedings are being drafted for at least several officials from the regime.
trump had to go to war & jumpstart some imperialism to distract from the fact that they explicitly broke the law by releasing only 1% of the epstein files -- 1% of which were poorly redacted because doge cancelled the adobe acrobat license that would've allowed them to properly hide trump's name...
fascists also usually need, uh, any?? kind of modicum of public support for at least SOME of their policy initiatives, but trump can't. fuckin. G0VERN. anyone whose words are worth listening to understands that everything is getting worse. you can't convince someone they aren't starving to death.
hitler's brownshirts existed *before* his rise to power, bc most fascists understand that a threat needs to be implicit before becoming explicit, else the public remains too uppity to get under control. despite following the 1939 playbook, they are too stupid to realize they did it out of order.
there are only 20k ICE agents (only a third of Greenland's population) and they had to commit 10% of their entire force to a single mid-sized midwestern city that still has not backed down. they are small, and they are weak, even if they cosplay strength.
when the chickens come home to roost, every single one of these ICE chuds cashed a paycheck, so there is a very clear paper trail. masks can't hide their bank accounts. "i was only following orders" wasn't a defense for the nazis, and it still won't be for nuremburg 2.0.
it's hard to find much solace these days (what with the fascism of it all) but there are a couple things that might help to keep in mind as we trudge through the muck of modern american politics and end-stage capitalism.
this will be a thread I go back to when I need reasons to be hopeful:
My voice has been an octave or so deeper since I recently had a cold, so I've been keeping sane by repeatedly reciting fragments of the DK rap with the calm dulcet tones of a 10pm radio DJ.
God help me.
