Setting the stage for Martial law. Slowly put troops out and when the midterms start, arrest those trying to vote.

Edit: Always appreciate proofreaders. Thanks to all that serve!

Who is Marshall? What does he have to do with martial law?

[-] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Marshall Law is ironically responsible for enforcing marital law.

Martial law is its own thing, but due to some confusion Marshall keeps getting calls about it.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

marital law.

[-] misfitx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Enforcing marital law is also in the cards, sadly.

I'm getting a bit tired of drawing comparisons to Nazi Germany. Like actually exhausted.

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Aww I thought red states weren't gonna get hurted? ☹️

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

i guess they need to shore up thier immigration numbers, exclusive targeting on blue areas could only work so much.

They aren’t. They are getting liberated

Getting troops for "administrative and clerical functions" bullshit.

I’m curious when somebody is gonna try to shoot them thinking they’re just being kidnapped.

[-] skuzz@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

At the rate they are going, it will happen. I'm honestly surprised it has taken this long, a testament to the collective hope that it won't be necessary. The first will probably be a right-wing nutjob or agent provocateur they try to illegally kidnap, that they'll then claim is a Democrat. Already saw some footage of people in Tucson, AZ with shields and pepper balls shooting back at the ICE Treasonists.

Hit the range and train up folks. The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi. They're not taking this fucking country. (Still hoping it doesn't come to that. The violence line is a hard one to come back from. Also, this message is not to be construed as a threat of violence. Only a statement of fact. Violence should always be avoided whenever possible, until it is necessary. The world came together to stop Nazis the first time, we may very well have to do it again.)

it should be all of us. we should be coordinating to do that very thing. way more effective than protests.

[-] venusaur@lemmy.world -1 points 1 month ago

You’re inviting martial law. I respect your passion though.

[-] selfdefense420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

You’re inviting martial law.

you're damn right. we have to be willing to fight them. living in fear of that outcome is defeat. if all they have to do is threaten us, then we're already defeated.

[-] venusaur@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Who are you expecting to buy tanks or missiles from?

I’m not risking my life at this point unless my family is in immediate danger. I got too much to lose to be a hero.

Stomp my snake balls

[-] RizzoTheSmall@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

You guys are literally staging a replay of 1930s Germany...

So, call me crazy, but I really do think the protest organizers need to push WAY harder on the idea that while ICE is the enemy, the NG (and the military at large too, hopefully) is not. We should make posters saying stuff like “NG: We’re citizens, and you’re citizen soldiers; we should be friends!”

I genuinely do hope and believe that when the chips are really down at some point, if the National Guard or any active-duty unit is ordered to do something absolutely beyond the pale, they’d refuse the order and frag the person who gave it. I think that may be part of how we end up getting out of this shitshow. And yes, I do realize how deeply fucked it is that I’m basically banking on a mutiny by elements of the US Military as our final breakwater against fascism… but our civilian institutions are manifestly failing to meet the moment in any meaningful way.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

the thing is MSM isnt reporting it, and they are trying very hard not to give it more attention than it needs, because its conservative owned media.

[-] frustrated_phagocytosis@fedia.io 2 points 1 month ago

Help them do what? Feed the detainees? Clean up waste? Because they aren't doing very well with that right now.

[-] who@feddit.org 0 points 1 month ago

Meanwhile, Trump’s so-called “Big, Beautiful Bill” spending and tax bill would direct $168 billion towards immigration and border enforcement. But that increased spending and other immigration-related costs could cost the U.S. an estimated $1.4 trillion over the next decade.

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

does that account for the loss of industry that needs immigrants to ruin certain fields.
