shithole country

Trump left his tinydick phylactery in Los Angeles and sent the people who would have been correctly convicted at the Nuremberg Trials to try to find it, but he has to keep sending more because it is so small.

"Assist" is doing some heavy lifting there...

I keep seeing people talking about the Marines and the National Guard being deployed, and this is certainly egregious and the blame for it rests squarely on Trump's head... But I have not seen many people mention that the LAPD are not being deployed by Trump. They are being deployed by Californian Politicians, and from the livestreams and videos I've seen, the police are the ones shooting LTL rounds and flahsbangs at civilians and reporters. Let's not lose sight of the fact that the police response has been unacceptably violent, national guard or not. It is the violence from the police that has historically, and will in this instance as well escalate the situation.

I think LAPD are essentially their own political institution, barely accountable to civilian or elected leadership

They should refuse the orders and arrest Trump and everyone else involved in this shit. Which includes a lot of the administration.

Correct answer. The fascists in charge want to do to California what Israel is doing to Gaza.

Not American and maybe I'm just OOTL but this confuses me as well... I'm aware of a peaceful protest against the mass deportations, but what else? Why do they need armed soldiers??

To prove empirically that he is a king and the constitution is dissolved.

It's the next step in his takeover. He already controls the government. He controls business through tariffs. Now he needs to control the people.

Once he's got control internally, he'll turn his eyes to other countries. What we've seen so far with his threats will become reality as he annexes Canada, Mexico, and Greenland to secure natural resources and wages a full economic war on anyone else who challenges him (China, EU)

It's pretty textbook rise of Nazi Germany 1930s. None of this should be surprising.

Yeh as a Canadian I'm pretty sure we're next after he crushes the democratic states. Can't build an empire without conqueting your neighbours.

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

We don't. This is all for Trump to wave his dick around

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 11 points 5 hours ago

Traitor president.

The sooner Americans learn to accept this is the historical event currently unfolding, the sooner we can take care of him and his enablers.

[–] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

Trump is a traitor.
