The strength of a democracy in given country is directly proportional to the percentage of the population who are willing to put their body on the line to defend it.
Not to be mistaken with the percentage of people who just post about it, but won't actually risk any real consequences to themselves.

In a very expected turn of events, the Republicans are now totally loving cancel culture, and are taking it to the extreme - actually using the federal gov't to punish people for speech they don't like.
I wonder if there should have been some "amendment" to the Constitution protecting speech, huh

Being against fascism is now... illegal in the US?
The 400 000 Americans that died fighting fascists in WWII must be spinning in their graves.
Unless decent Americans stand up now, there won't be an America to take back in 2028, even if Trump allows for an election to even happen.

NEW: Trump is designating "Antifa" a terrorist organization (though there's no legal mechanism to do - but the law doesn't matter anymore.) He's using the Kirk murder to justify going after democrats. Those of us who read Project 2025 knew this was coming - but that provides little comfort.

The fascists continue to fascist.
I expect every single late night show to get canceled if the host ever criticized Trump or his cult.
Literally from the authoritarian playbook.
America is in real trouble, and needs any remaining decent people to push back now.

Journalism is speaking truth to power.
This was great journalism, but in a fascism, that's the highest offense.

Credit where credit is due - we're starting to see change here. As always, young people, people of color, coastal cities are once again saving America's soul by putting their bodies on the line.
Because during fascism, that's the only way to force the state to change its behavior.
Best of luck 🙏

Yes, this is a subtweet of the current US. Many people performatively criticize their government, but where are the thousands of people in the streets willing to be beaten/die to change things?
They aren't there. Trump knows it. That's why he's doing what he wants, and GOP enables him w/out fear.

Don't align with fascists, even when they seem to be aligned with you temporarily.
They never deliver.
Because they're actually quite incompetent.
A bunch of tech bros finding that out now 🍿

Never forget that all this cruelty is *the point*, and *that's why* people voted for him.
He didn't trick them. And the country is full of such people who want to see "the others" suffer.

I miss the liberalism of the 1940s when we still knew how to deal with Nazis.
Those liberals never would have just stood around and watched this shit unfold quietly.
We need to bring back that energy.

As the Bad Man takes office again, I'm going for a different strategy to 2017.
Now, I believe:
- things won't change until the people who voted for him absolutely hate him and his party
- we must amplify topics that fracture his coalition (H1Bs, etc)
- things will get worse before getting better

Call me old-fashioned, but I think we should go back to a 90% marginal tax rate on billionaires.
What's the point of being rich if you can't afford to do the right thing.
