I think they should do that to any US Citizen with 34 convictions or more… starting with the orange ones!
If there was an honest to God legal way they’d already have figured it out along with everything else in Project 2025, long before coming into office.
They’re trying to find out a better loophole than the last one, which blew up in their face. And trying to find ways to remove the people in the way of said loopholes.
They don’t plan.
Planning would entail following the law, customs, and procedures.
If they just steamroll everyone with bullshit and make it up as they go then everyone else is scrambling to sort out wtf they are doing and figure out what rules were broken.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?.. The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation… We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
Jordan Peterson constantly quotes Solzhenitsyn warning of what the Liberal party would do to canada or the democrats would do to the usa. He would then promote a tool like polievre or an overt fascist orangeman without any irony at all. Today he seems to be confused about what fascism is and has oftentimes waffles between endorsing them or trying to avoid discussing them, like a true intellectual coward who was wrong about everything he ever said
He’s not confused about what fascism is, he knows and he wants it. Just like any fascist, you can’t take what he says at face value, it’s all trolling games like the Sartre quote.
That’s it exactly. JBP, JD Vance, etc., play word games of rhetoric to get what they want. It’s like they are defence lawyers and morality is a legal system they are trying to game - they argue whatever just to win.
With Peterson, he did make himself sick with that “carnivore” diet. He’s been huffing his own fumes so long that I think it’s fucked with his cognitive abilities.
I’ve listened to his class lectures - I do not understand how he earned a doctorate, and I do not understand why anyone taken the shit that comes out of his mouth seriously. It’s just misinterpreted Jung with some Manichean/Christian influence.
For sure, he wasn’t the smartest to begin with and he’s gone downhill. Even so, he’s not so dumb that he doesn’t know what he wants is to subjugate women and non-whites, and he will say whatever he thinks will make that happen regardless of whether he believes it or it even sounds plausible.
I heard Peterson described as Joe Rogan with an education and vocabulary, who occasionally has a cry lol
Germany 1933-45. Right out of the book.
Plenty of European countries try to do this also
Which ones?
I don’t see anywhere in here about stripping people of citizenship.
Germany is deporting EU citizens from Germany illegally for protesting against the genocide.
So?
So that’s the Nazi comparison part.
Nothing says they wont be stripping people of citizenship.
I know EU countries, including my own have been doing that for decades.But I think shipping them off to an even horrible jail is the worse part here.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed this week that the president has discussed this idea privately, too, adding he would only do this “if it’s legal.” […] Stephen Yale-Loehr, a retired immigration law professor at Cornell University, tells Rolling Stone he worries Trump could try to deport citizens anyway, court precedent be damned, given how the administration seems to be “attacking on all fronts and worrying later whether their actions are legal. So unfortunately, it would not surprise me if we saw at least one plane load of incarcerated U.S. citizens being shipped off to El Salvador.”
Oh, at least one
“It’s not like we would send everybody there — but depending on the case, it can be an option,” says one of the people familiar with the matter,
Riiiiight. That’s what they said about the deportations, that it would only be the worst, most violent criminals taken into custody and returned home. Instead they’re snatching people off the streets and out of their homes, throwing them into vans, moving them around the country so their families, friends and lawyers can’t find them, and sending into a death camp that’s not under control of US law, without due process and no possibility of return.
All while they insist that it is impossible for them to have anyone returned from there; even if the person was sent there "by mistake " in direct violation of multiple court orders, even if there are court orders to repatriate the person, and even if those orders come from SCOTUS.
You can’t repatriate the dead.
“Oops, how did we know that they would end up dead?”
Narrator “They knew.”
Buy a gun and fight for your life or you’ll die in prison.
If it comes down to that, we’ve already lost.
Right now, I’d advise people to do as much outreach as possible to people you know. If you’re on commercial social media, post a screenshot, put the link in a comment. Send a DM. Put up stickers.
Building the level of support that would be necessary to win a revolution likely makes nonviolent paths such as impeachment possible.
The guns are to prevent violent suppression of that public support. Not as a first choice.
The guns are to prevent violent suppression of that public support.
That’s one part of it, but also people should be defending themselves and their communities from ICE and one way to do that is guns. When an ICE agent is arresting your neighbor the correct option isn’t to preach nonviolence, but to pull the damn trigger.
I just don’t feel comfortable bringing a gun into my house. I don’t think I stand a chance against 10 automatic-wielding ICE agents.
When the law break in How you gonna go? Shot down on the pavement Or waiting in death row
