We are all domestic terrorists?

Including MAGA...

trump has always viewed MAGA as a large group that is loyal to him over anything.

But that's because Trump's a fucking idiot and views most groups as either that or an enemy.

The Luigi part in specifically, but he tried to cram so much on that list, that there's something for almost everyone.

And people are going to realize that. MAGA bots will spread it as a positive, and it's short enough and from trump actual trump voters will read it...

And realize for one reason or another, they're not "us" anymore to trump, they've become "them".

MAGA has never been at a bigger risk of fracturing back into a dozen plus groups of crazy people, and trump literally can't keep them all happy, because they want different things.

I'm not sure MAGAs are going to be that outward thinking to realize that they could be one of "them".

[–] F_State@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

Mmmm, obedience to Authority is the hallmark of Right-Wing beliefs and I feel Trump personally will retain their loyalty. The other hallmark of Right-Wing thought, conformity, will hold together most of MAGA for as long as he lives. Corporate Media and armies of bots are on their side.

Trump has officially designated the USA circa 1942 a terrorist organization.

Clown world.

Just read thru the bullet point list of violent acts by leftists in the article, and it’s actually hilarious to me how few things they had to list even ignoring that many of them are likely bullshit. Like for most of these points I could think of a couple examples of matching far right violence, and I’m not even American.

Worth reading the list tho cuz for honestly most of these points my reaction was “based” lmao

US, today is June 22, 1933.

Yeah, but see - Harris was tepid in her support for the working man.

So we get this now.

Ironic given that Luigi just had his terrorism charges dismissed.

[–] lengau@midwest.social 4 points 2 months ago

Luigi isn't on the left.

[–] C1pher@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Terrorist... a word for person you don't like. Nothing more. It has devolved so much.

[–] F_State@midwest.social 11 points 2 months ago

Alot of people were warning that the W. Bush administrations "War on Terrorism" would one day lead to this moment and here we are.

[–] the_q@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Shall we incite terror then?

[–] SwingingTheLamp@midwest.social 3 points 2 months ago

Doesn't take much, as MAGA lives in pants-shitting terror of everyone and everything.
