Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
Does this mean the military is going to be used inside the USA, on their own population, on a previously unseen scale?
Kinda feels like it, especially since I personally know at least a few people whose brain has been melted by facebook propaganda who would eagerly support it.
When I saw my mom angrily (and unprompted) blaming "evil democrats" within a couple hours of Kirk getting shot in texts, it highlighted to me on a personal level how the foundation has been laid for this regime to just do whatever they want and get meaningful support for it. There's a considerable percentage of the population now who are such reactionary fanatics that they will 100% cheer on Trump if they see troops cracking skulls in "evil democrat states".
We know what this is. We all saw the Nazi salute during the inauguration, the subsequent deconstruction of the government, and the fucking death camps opening.
