Used to live around this area. It’s the safest area in Chicago before these fascist thugs invaded.

Stay safe everyone.

    They are terrorists. The public displays of violence are not an accident or a misstep, it’s an intentional and critical part of the plan. Their intent is to scare you into surrendering to their authority. The more people they can scare into submission, the stronger they will get. Reject their authority, resist their threats. Figure out a method of opposition or resistance that works for you, no matter how small, speak to people, identify and find like-minded people, be part of them if they’re organizing, or help them organize, but don’t give in to fear and surrender. They can be beaten, and they will be beaten. America is the land of the free. And it will be again. Even if you once again have to fight for freedom.

      The Trump administration is using Nazi Germany as their text book.
      These methods are Gestapo methods, and they are designed to be a show of power against the opposition, and to defeat resistance early to prevent it blowing up later when they make USA into a dictatorship for real.

      The real problem is the people who have given up. This was so sloppily done that there’s statistically no chance this turd of a plan will make it to the finish line and will likely only last a year and a half more before they implode whilst backstabbing one another.

        Theres two big differences between today and nazi Germany

        1. Trump is old and stupid. He’s not making it to 2028. And the party is dead in the water without him
        2. Hitler at the very least made economic conditions better for white Germans (his voting base). Were about to slip into a massive recession and it’s only been downhill since the election anyway.

          I don’t know that I believe the repeated notation of point 1. Sure, Trump has the charisma that is stringing a lot of people along but I truly think people will rally behind someone else once he’s gone. They don’t need charisma, they just want that person that will align with hurting anyone that isn’t White and who will say that they will protect their pocket book.

          All Trump did was break the typical mold of politics, but the things he’s doing are what Republicans have wanted and what they’ve been priming people for years. The pundits like Hannity or whomever will become the mainstream influencer on social will whip the people up to support a certain politician of their choosing and I’m betting they will align.

              If the majority of the Rs wanted to then, yes, they could drum up his support. They could make the case that he was handpicked by Trump and many in Congress could come out endorsing him as Trump’s disciple and maybe even say he would be firmer in his decisions than Trump was.

              I think many underestimate the Republican hive mind. It could, also, easily go the other way and totally implode but I think as long as they can have someone to take Heritage Foundation orders then they could/would rally around that person in order to not lose their momentum.

          Also 3: Nazis embraced science during their tyranny.

          MAGA is dumber than a rotten piece of bologna asked to answer a yes/no question and anti-science.

          President Camacho could run circles around them and he was fictional.

            Trump is not even half the man President Camacho was. Camacho had the humility and forethought to find the smartest person in the world.

              Once they are removed from power, we will need to arrange some rehabilitation for the people currently running the government. As a bonus, we won’t need taxes anymore, we can fund the whole federal budget with pay-per-view.

          Also 4: his heart condition gives him 6 normal person months and 2 expired already. Maybe magic rich person months are longer, but still guessing 4 or less. Stephen Miller and the rest still need to be put down.
