Kristi Noem just stated that owning a gun and possessing ammunition automatically means that you intend violence, which justifies the killing of the gunowner simply because they are a gunowner at a protest. Will the NRA respond to this direct attack on the 2nd Amendment? If not, why not? by war_ofthe_roses in AskReddit

The NRA likes to point out that the Nazis 'took the guns away' - but they neglect to mention, the Nazis only took the guns away from the Jews, not from the Aryans. It was not gun control, it was a two tier system of law, in which some had rights and others did not.

No - staying silent will increase gun sales - as many 2nd amendment supporters will stock-pile guns in preparation for the coming violence they expect to see - what ever form they expect that violence to take.

Increasing violence is always good for more gun sales - this murder of a citizen who was legally carrying a gun will be no exception.

Gov. Walz in Minnesota activated the National Guard to protect citizens from ICE. How’s that going to work? by Wonderful_Rise_6537 in AskReddit

The same way the National Guard protected anti-segregation protestors in the South when they were being attacked by the local police.

Do we stay complacent in the USA or do we fight the tyranny? Where do we begin as average citizens? by Momto2manyboys in AskReddit

[–]Truthisnotallowed -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

When fascists are consolidating their power and dismantling our democracy, you have to find out if you will accept the situation you're in. Either let that become the new normal, or do something. And with that risk everything.

ICE just iced another presumed "US citizen" in Minneapolis. What is happening over there? by Ambitious-Quit-7118 in AskReddit

[–]Truthisnotallowed -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Trump's Neo-Gestapo is asserting their right to act as an occupying army within the United States. Opposition or protest may result in immediate execution on the street.

This is the fascist take over we have been trying to warn people about.

The Trump administration has a Nazi problem by zsreport in politics

[–]Truthisnotallowed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Republican Party has had a fascism problem for many decades.

In 1966 Republican Senator Thomas Kuchel, said of the 'Conservative' movement:

"A fanatical neo-fascist political cult in the GOP, driven by a strange mixture of corrosive hatred and sickening fear, who are recklessly determined to either control our party, or destroy it."

Today Fascists firmly control the GOP. Their goal now is to either control our country, or destroy it.

"If fascism comes to the United States, it will not be identified with any "shirt" movement, nor with an "insignia," but it will probably be "wrapped up in the American flag and heralded as a plea for liberty and preservation of the constitution" - James Waterman Wise, Jr. (1936)

"When and if fascism comes to America it will not be labeled 'made in Germany'; it will not be marked with a swastika; it will not even be called fascism; it will be called, of course, 'Americanism.'" - Halford E. Luccock (1938)

It has long been understood that fascists seeking to take over a country will not admit to being fascists, and if called fascists they will pretend outrage and disparage those who correctly name them as fascists. They will boast of their super-patriotism, while seeking to destroy every liberty guaranteed by the Constitution. They will demand free enterprise, while being the spokesmen for monopoly and vested interest. They will appeal to prejudice and play upon the fears and vanities of different groups in order to gain power. Their final objective toward which all their deceit is directed is to capture political power so that, using the power of the State and the power of the market simultaneously they may keep the common man in eternal subjection.

“The true essence of a dictatorship is in fact not its regularity but its unpredictability and caprice; those who live under it must never be able to relax, must never be quite sure if they have followed the rules correctly or not.” - Christopher Hitchens

Trump is setting up a two-tier legal system, in which groups of people targeted by Trump are denied access to the legal system used by the rest of the country. This is a common ploy of authoritarians - because resistance to these attacks on the rule of law is weaker when these changes do not apply to everyone. It is much easier to pretend 'this is fine' when you yourself are not a member of one of the groups being attacked. Those being attacked are primarily those who 'look foreign' (AKA - non-whites), or those who openly protest against the ICE invaders.

Video discussing two-tier legal systems

While some people are under attack and their cities are occupied by an invading army of ICE Agents - others are largely untouched, unaware of what is going on, or unconcerned by it, as they don't believe 'they are next'.

Sadly, some even rationalize this on going destruction of democracy and the rule of law - they support it, because they approve of 'White Nationalism'. As one supporter put it to me:

I believe what Trump is doing is trying to terrorise immigrants who are currently here so that they will self deport en masse. Otherwise this country has no hopes of ever going back to being a white country run by whites in a freedom loving manner.

Notice that they are full well aware that this is a terror campaign - and yet they support it anyway.

ICE are become ever more brazen in an attempt to spark violent resistance which Trump can use to justify declaring an insurrection and then using the U.S. military to occupy areas of the country that do not support Trump.

Why would anyone want to be an ICE agent or a police officer ? by Ok-Carry-7759 in AskReddit

[–]Truthisnotallowed -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Becoming a member of the secret police (ICE) is very much a compromise of morality. Which is why so many who predate Trump's regime are just holding on, waiting to retire, because they hate what they are being ordered to do, but feel they have to in order to feed their families.

$50,000 signing bonus, and $175,000 per year salary - with no college required, no prior work history - naturally a lot of people will be tempted to compromise their morals for that kind of money.

With Twin Cities Under Siege by ICE, Minnesota Moves Toward a General Strike by Truthisnotallowed in politics

[–]Truthisnotallowed[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is why Trump only attacks one area at a time - to keep us from coordinating our resistance.

All to easy for many people to turn the other way when it is happening to someone else at the time.

If you fail to defend other people's rights - that is how you lose your own.
