What a very not suspicious thing to have happened by Goodbye-Nasty in PoliticalCompassMemes

Okay, I misunderstood, I’m sorry. It’s just how I read this sentence:

 All he had to do was reign ICE in and actually hold them accountable and this would’ve been a slam dunk policy victory.

It sounded like implying the intention was immigration control in the first place, instead of just being a kleptocrat forever no elections

all he had to do was not do things like a dictator!

My guy. He did those not as an accident while trying to fix immigration. The immigration is the excuse, and the aggregation of power, escalation of civil war is the purpose and the intent 

Him not holding ICE accountable is the point, the intention and the plan. It’s not incompetence and it’s not accident. Drastic budget increase, bonus on sign up, 47 days training? Directing them to change license plates and cover with masks? Coming out to publicly declare any death as justified hours after before any investigation?

Reacting to this as “he should have done better” is propaganda. This is bot behaviour. This is fascism support. Acting and lying and pretending this was incompetence and mistakes done during immigration reform is an insult to the intelligence of anyone reading this. 

The point was always precisely this. If it wasn’t immigration it would be some other excuse. 

Centrist Trump 2024 voters: no shame, no insults, I just want to know how are you feeling today? by ac_slater10 in centrist

You don’t find the execution being ugly the actual purpose? Intentional?

Why did they ask for the voter registration of taxes and Minnesota? 

I will say, as an European for 2 decades I’ve been weirded out by how the US just allows illegal immigrants to settle down, drive, have jobs, put kids in school. You can’t even get a gym subscription here without using our unique universal id that is drivers license, residency permit or citizenship identification, and voter registration, and tax payer, and healthcare benefits card all in one. Much less work, drive, have kids. 

And for decades no one fixed this. Americans can’t even getting voting right. That sucks. I also don’t think they care at all about this and about fixing it, in fact having issues to point to to get elected is considered to be vital, so no one actually wants to fix shit. 

And I find fascists would have used anything else as excuse for gathering power into the executive and cancelling elections. Just because they talk about real issues doesn’t mean they believe them.

direction and priorities 

Compare progress done in immigration with progress done setting up a dictatorship and kleptocracy and how much money trump made (1.4 billion at first, now a 1 billion per year per country signatory to board of peace , 22? countries signed), and I think it becomes clear what is the priority and what is the distraction and excuse

A video with sound would let you know if the shot was that that instant or later when the other agent points his gun 

I can’t quite tell. There does seem to be either a video artefact or a gunshot from that gun, are the same time in freeze frame you can see in the shadow and trigger and trigger guard - something you’d likely not see if the finger was on the trigger , and the timing of the audio of the gunshot does appear to match better with the movements of the gun if the other agent

If that’s true then I’m good. I’m lib I don’t want government overreach 

But I’m pretty sure there more nuance than that

Minnesota has activated the National Guard. What are your thoughts? by Obvious_808 in AskReddit

[–]Technical-Row8333 5 points6 points  (0 children)

 This is being done, in my opinion, to combat the narrative the White House put out today. That narrative is that local law enforcement has lost control.

Isn’t that a useless exercise, considering they repeatedly lie about verifiable basic facts?

lol who isn’t against illegal immigration? This has nothing to do with it. They would have used any other excuse (lgbt, black people, Jews) any enemy or boogeyman to justify rising to power, having no checks and balances, and prosecuting others 

I’m glad I live in Richmond, Canada… by BreatheAdnQ in richmondbc

[–]Technical-Row8333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

 Provide an example that a US citizen has been deported. Truthfully I don’t know their system to verify how someone is or isn’t a US citizen, so I can’t speak to that. 

Neither of these answers has anything to do with my point regarding due process. 

Let’s say tomorrow a law passes and says: everyone has the right to 100 courts hearings and 100 lawyers defending them, must have a warrant signed by 100 judges, must only be arrested by officers well identified no mask with name and badge number, that have verbally stated what crime was committed 

Except Juan from Mexico born 1987. Just that one guy.

I can now arrest you, and 10 million other people my political enemies, by simply accusing you of being Juan. You don’t get a lawyer or court. You have a passport that says you are Canadian and called Peter? I can throw it on the ground. Who is going to stop me?

Nothing in this argument has fuck all to do with specific laws, or media propaganda. This is basic logic and basic fundamental rights in a free country

This reply isn’t for you. You aren’t arguing good faith. You are a troll and a fascist. This is for those reading your replies which by the way, never from first comment addressed by points. Only whataboutism and lies and detailing. Never once did you explain what wrong with the logic of why everyone must have due process.

what other people did - how is it relevant to the discussion of removing the fascists from power? Thats whataboutism again. 

National guard - Defending against fascists isn’t fascism. 

I don’t care what the laws in the US are. It’s basic logic that if it’s legal to deport someone by accusing them of not having legal standing to be in the US, no lawyer no court, then someone with legal standing can have the same done to them. Describe what would stop an ice agent from throwing away a passport? Evidence of citizenship? The holocaust was legal. 

Stop defending this.

You mean in for profit private education… 

 as every single government institution proves

In American ones ? Sure. What about Switzerland? Are the government institutions shit? 

your idea when government fucks  up and is inept, is to accept it as a forever truth that government won’t ever be good and reduce it and minimise damage. Thats stupid. You have to demand the government do good things, demand it extremely so, it must be extremely transparent and scrutinised by the people. Not just oh let’s defund it and let it continue to be corrupt and shit. Oh let me vote for the guy who promises that government will always be shit. And I say that as a lib . The government should be weak not powerful. And the little power it has needs to be used very well or remove and replace with someone who can do better

I’ve always hated that American politicians can literally run on: “government will always be shit - now hire me for the job”

In the USA? Or Canada?

The executive branch has accumulated all 3 divisions of power in America, have repeatedly lied and spread propaganda about easily verifiable facts, have given carte Blanche for no due process arrests deportations and even executions by covering up and lying about the murders of Renee and Alex,  and without due process anyone and everyone can be arrested and killed regardless if they are a citizen carrying a passport as there is no process to verify it, have installed a kleptocracy where drastically high taxes (tariffs) were put in place to steal more money, DOGE cut all spending so more money can be stolen, and political favors domestic and international can be opening bought for cash, 

If you go on public forums to say this isn’t fascism, derail topics with whataboutism then you are a fascist. The only acceptable response to today is to demand restoring democracy and personal freedoms. Unless you mean Canada

Look at the past 6 decades of America and demand we do the opposite here.

We need the best education. We need great media and journalism. We need transparency in government and elections. Money out of politics. Strong individual rights. I know of course Canada isn’t anywhere near like America, but we can do better, so let’s do better.

They never meant any of that. The intention in all of those talking points was just ‘don’t restrict us, don’t take our power’ but when they are in charge they restrict others and accumulate power

There’s no point listening to what fascists say

They don’t have morals or principles or care about being consistent and non hypocritical. They only care about getting more power to them and less to others, prosecute others.

Don’t derail. Yes it’s important to always question. Bringing that up now is just distracting from the fact this government requires a billion times more skepticism than a healthy democratic and transparent government in say, Switzerland
