    “So much winning. So many bended knees. Trump so strong. Elon cleaning house”. These are the posts that I’m seeing across articles and one sub in particular.

    Am I taking crazy pills or something?

    It’s not a coincidence that Trump and Musk and their mercenaries are actively working to overthrow the US government and replace it with a plutocratic autocracy.

    It’s primarily so that when the reality of what’s being done to us finally filters out to enough people to trigger widespread opposition, the only options left will be to submit, to go to prison or to die.

        Hmm yes, but according to those bLuEMaGA “people” it was totally worth it to show the DNC a lesson at the polls!

          Yep. And many of the ones that internalized such nonsense are still spouting it, even here on Lemmy. With no zero apology and absolutely no lesson learned.

          They are even still so very proud of themselves.

          I’m sure some will even still be reeling off stupid claptrap and justifications for their idiotic lack of morals we’ve all heard for decades, even as they are carted off to prison.

          Don’t get me started.

          I just saw this February 5 protest. Funny thing. They don’t post information on Lemmy, but do redirect people to Reddit and Meta.

        Yes, but all too many Americans have been blinded by decades of deliberate indoctrination, so all they heard were the parts where Trump said it was all the fault of the out groups they were conditioned into hating. The rest was just irrelevant details to them.

        Which is exactly why I stipulated “when the reality of what’s being done to us finally filters out to enough people to trigger widespread opposition.”

        If the American people by and large were actually aware and rational, that point would’ve already been passed. They aren’t, so it hasn’t been, and it likely won’t be for quite some time to come, and it’ll be too late when it finally is.

        By design.

    “Thank you, President Trump! Our country finally has an advocate for American farmers, families, and businesses in the White House!” Representative Randy Feenstra, an Iowa Republican who prides himself on meeting with farmers and families in each of the 36 counties he represents […] The message was starkly at odds with the one coming from major groups representing farmers throughout the country, who issued statements warning of dire impacts on the nation’s food producers.

    Hey, look at that. That Feenstra guy is hoarding all the shit in his ivory tower.
