Became isolated during the pandemic, realized I was an asexual aromantic, now I read fan-fiction all day.

My personal conspiracy theory is that unless we get lucky his death will not be obvious, and "Trump" will continue to exist in the form of social media posts and AI generated videos.

Trump would fail a turing test so the bar for replacing him with one of these new so-called Griefbots is not high.

Truth is the enemy of tradition, and for those who were born into power tradition is everything.
It's why corporal punishment for children is still so popular in the US, fear is the mind killer.

I recently heard someone describe the end of the US Civil War as an occupation that never ended, the war continues.
The reactionary response to DEI is an example of a longstanding conflict in US streets that has resulted in events from the burning of Black Wall Street to the murder of George Floyd.

The hardest part about punishing the Nazis was much of what they did and believed was inspired by the US in the first place, so it was a little awkward judging people for doing something you wanted to do yourself.
We ended up giving many of them positions of power in the private sector instead...

Can anyone confirm if ICE took witnesses away?

I'm not sure how people can look at history and think, "I just gotta come up with the right piece of evidence or argument to avert holy war."
These are folk who respond to the fear of death by deciding they have immortal souls, they approach reality from the opposite direction entirely.

Whoops, thank you.

At least we get great music out of all this.

Saudi Arabia loves to collect dictators so I expect he will fuck off to a castle in the desert to eat oranges for the rest of his life like other tyrants have, assuming we are able to stop the next J6 because the last one ws close. Regardless, I bet $10 his deadbot will be used for a cult afterward.

In the opinion of some truly horrible people, Hitler's greatest failing was being born in Germany instead of the US, which already embraced his ideals.
Our original response to conflict with the Nazis was to build our own concentration camps for Japanese Americans, that is who we are still.

There is a mix of random bullshit escalation and operations with specific targets. Police departments are freely giving flock data to ICE, so agents can take a video of you to get your address and everything. They are building their list.

This was my issue as well, telling my parents I dared to abstain was a punishment in itself, where could I get permission from?
In every US state we are allowed to use physical violence to "discipline" our children on topics ranging from religion to politics to whatever whim you have that day.

It's excellent mental exercise in a way, using your imagination to "see" a story in ways movies and video games attempt to reproduce.

American anecdote, we have something in schools called the Pledge of Allegiance. The Nazis loved it and copied it but that's beside the point, which is that it has been illegal in the US since the 40s to force children to perform the pledge, but to this day children still get punished for abstaining

Not only do some Americans like it, it's we Americans who inspired the Nazis in the first place. We have tolerated white supremacy, particularly in police forces, for too long. It's easy for some of us to say we voted agaisnt this, but we have all been supporting this for a long time.
