They will continue to escalate, also. They need a reason to halt the midterms. If they succeed at raids without opposition they get rid of a lot of people they already don't like, and if we fight back, tRump enacts ~~Marshall~~ Martial Law. We were fucked as soon as SCOUTS said presidents were above the law...

[–] PKscope@lemmy.world 12 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

*Martial

Sorry, it's important.

I half did it in jest and half because I'm just a lowly registry hive!

So it's witnessed by dozens and filmed by none?

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 30 points 17 hours ago

I'm thinking ICE was not given all that funding for nothing. They were probably already over-funded even before this year, and now they have multiples of what they had before.

Ghouls like Stephen Miller want to see that money spent on inflicting pain on others...

This is absolutely insane and highly illegal. The government cannot just kick down a whole apartment building full of doors, enter homes, and arrest people at random without a warrant or exigent circumstances. The law is quite settled on this.

This is absolutely insane and highly illegal.

Add it to the list.

[–] Zedd_Prophecy@lemmy.world 65 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

The "law" is being ignored as it was in pre- Nazi Germany when the brown shirts started arresting and beating and intimidating people. There is no law currently.

[–] SabinStargem@lemmy.today 17 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

The big problem is that there IS law: the kind that favors the government. As of right now, people can't go out and crush some ICE without the courts and police doing something about it.

See thats the fun part is ICE generates their own warrants without any attorneys or judges involved.

They are literally Gestapo.

[–] WEFshill202@lemmy.world 8 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Those do not allow entrance in a home ( but they won't tell you that )

And y'all think violence isnt the answer? That is literally all their monkey brains can comprehend

[–] Medic8teMe@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

It's quite unreal to watch from the outside what's happening down there. Violence is the only answer.

[–] humanamerican@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

And what do you expect us to achieve other than getting ourselves killed?

General strike is the only answer.

Yeah? Well I say we make him cream his diaper. It's way past time to fight fire with fire. Give them what they seem to crave. The current response is not sufficient.

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 29 points 22 hours ago

To these cunts a lack of retaliation is seen as assent.

So Americans, you ready to put a stop to this yet?

General strike now. Shut it down. Organize, disrupt, disobey.

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 29 points 19 hours ago

Unemployed people be like:

Don't worry, there will surely be people left to speak up for us when they come for us.

[–] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 29 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

Sure, I'll just go ahead and lose my job now and deprive my family of food and shelter before the Nazis get a chance to do so.

I'm all for calling out Nazi bullshit, but blanket statements like this help absolutely nobody.

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 hours ago

You really think business are going to mass fire people if we have a general strike? Do you even know what that is?

I've watched documentaries and studied the rise of Hitler and the Nazis, I don't think Trump will get that powerful. Germany was in bad shape post WW2, and Hitler was quite young, energetic and commanding with a clear vision for his future. Trump is old, tired, and has broken too many promises to his base.

As long as the press mostly stays free, and journalists don't face punitive measures for their reporting, Trump will come and go.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 hours ago

The problem is that Trump is speed running the country into shithole status (economically, I know we were already there on the healthcare, housing and wealth inequality fronts).

And the smart assholes with ambition are running the show, Miller, Vance and Johnson.

Wtf is going on? This is like Israel war in our own highly populated cities

[–] SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one 10 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Refusing to vote brought the war they were protesting to their homes. As I've said all along.

That's because both Israel and the USA are run by fascists.

[–] capital_sniff@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago

This is just my own speculation, but I think we are seeing a new group of techbros, for lack of a better term, jostle for their seat at the table. We as a nation have refused to expand our positions of power even though we've grown in size. For example, we have a capped number of Senators.

We've funneled so much new money into the hands of these tech elite they have near run out of places to spend it. So we have multiple private space companies, a booming apocalypse bunker industry, and why not buy a few representatives as well. My point is a bunch of Ayn Rand 1950s sci-fi loving man children who control resources as vast as they do present a terrible condition for democracy and human rights. We are just watching this power struggle between the old guard and the new kids play out in real time. And the women, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ communities are the first to be rounded up this time.

Arm yourselves and everyone you know. Maintain networks. Communicate via encrypted messaging apps.
