If you don’t be a slave for billionaires you’re a tewwowist. That’s fweedom.
Crime before crime? So not a crime? Is raping children a post crime. Asking for a friend?
If you’re wearing the right coloured hat it’s virtually impossible to commit any kind of crime at all.
In this real-world case, the “indicia” (indicators) of future political violence listed in the report are:
- anti-Americanism,
- anti-capitalism,
- anti-Christianity,
- support for the overthrow of the United States Government,
- extremism on migration,
- extremism on race,
- extremism on gender
- hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family,
- hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on religion, and
- hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on morality.
Given that the fascist administration defines “extremism” on migration, race, and gender to basically be the absence of bigotry and the presence of rationality, those are ALL positive viewpoints possessed by most of the sane and reasonable people in the world.
Yeah this just straight up designates every human (and some animals probably) as terrorists
we want to put migrants in prisons surrounded by alligators
not extremist
we don’t want that
violently extremist stance on migration, pre-crimed in my jorts
Wow we moved from the “first they came for the…” to “and then they came for me” in 60 seconds flat.
Americans need to get organized and get their shit together FAST. What’s left of their democracy is disappearing daily.
It’s ironic that the country with the most guns per citizen is the country least likely to defend its democracy with those guns.
Their democracy has been gone for a while. They’re just getting around to noticing now.
and here I thought the radical left were the ones into speedrunning!
The only speed running the actual radical left is doing is to the bullet box
I’d love to know who you think the radical left are, can you name them?
Inventing and punishing thoughtcrimes seems to be a favored tactic among dictators. Trump-MAGA and ICE remind me most of Stalin and his NKVD (secret police). Solzhenitsyn wrote about how ordinary citizens would frequently be arrested/shot/sent to the gulag over mere assertions that they held anti-Soviet/anti-Communist beliefs, or had counter-revolutionary sympathies. It was illegal to not rat out others who you suspected held such beliefs and inclinations - if you didn’t you could be shot yourself.
I think we’re getting there. I soon expect to see federal government websites and apps where you can report your friends/neighbors/family members for anti-capitalist and/or anti-fascist and/or anti-evangelical-Christian leanings.
From Wikipedia (Great Terror article)
The purges were largely conducted by the NKVD, which functioned as the interior ministry and secret police of the USSR. Soviet politicians who opposed or criticized Stalin were removed from office and imprisoned, or executed, by the NKVD. The purges were eventually expanded to the Red Army high command, which had a disastrous effect on the military. The campaigns also affected many other segments of society: the intelligentsia, wealthy peasants—especially those lending money or other wealth (kulaks)—and professionals. As the scope of the purge widened, the omnipresent suspicion of saboteurs and counter-revolutionaries (known collectively as wreckers) began affecting civilian life.
The campaigns were carried out according to the general line of the party, often by direct orders by the Politburo headed by Stalin. Hundreds of thousands of people were accused of political crimes, including espionage, wrecking, sabotage, anti-Soviet agitation, and conspiracies to prepare uprisings and coups. They were executed by shooting, or sent to Gulag labor camps. The NKVD targeted certain ethnic minorities with particular force (such as Volga Germans or Soviet citizens of Polish origin), who were subjected to forced deportation and extreme repression. Throughout the purge, the NKVD sought to strengthen control over civilians through fear and frequently used imprisonment, torture, violent interrogation, and executions during its mass operations.
It’s chilling.
None of this should sound plausible in the USA. These simply aren’t the kind of concerns citizens should have to have in a free democracy, because it shouldn’t be possible to let things get this far.
It truly breaks my heart to see the US as it is now. It’s frightening, and it’s extremely disappointing. I think of all the people who give these totalitarians their vote, and I’m deeply disappointed in them.
These are exactly the kind of concerns citizens should have in a free democracy because that’s how you keep your democracy free. We only have rights because normal everyday citizens fought for them and continue to fight for them. The problem is that we’ve all become complacent and lazy about it and let things slide to where things are now.
I wish soooooo deeply that a Trump Gestapo is reading all my anti capitalist and anti organized religious comments. I’m so out and proud it’ll be great.
If everyone is guilty of crimes against the state, no one is guilty of crimes against the state.
If everyone’s guilty of crimes against the state then everybody’s in for a bad time. The population of the USA is going to go way down over the next few years.
That’s really not how that works.
It’s really more like… If everyone is guilty of crimes against the state, then anyone can be imprisoned at any time.
(All at the discretion of those in charge.) This is really a much worse situation for everyone.
He has precrime in his pants
I think it’s very much post-crime at this point.
That’s where the orange tint comes from
Crusty and crunchy. Just like a cheetoh
I cannot wait to learn he died. Painfully hopefully.
I will take up celebratory drinking for one day (I don’t drink normally)
The country will be the drunkest it’s been since the start of the temperance movement
If you think his death will change anything in this rotten system, you’ve got another thing coming lol
Nothing will change for the positive, but it will be a cathartic interlude in this march to hell.
Fair enough. Ill definitely spark one up when hes gone.

Oh my God, did somebody let him watch Minority Report? His grasp on reality is, shall we say, not strong.

Get your sick sticks!
Everybody runs.
Ballsy from a guy who concentrates economic decision making into his own cabinet. The word for that is statism not capitalism
It’s a feudal kingdom, only with the lords swearing fealty to their king.
except capitalism as a system has always included that “statism” isn’t a economic system separate from your imaginary"capitalism"
your imaginary"capitalism”
I grok you’re angry. Please don’t take it out on me. I didn’t make any economic systems, real or imaginary.
capitalism as a system has always included that “statism”
When discussing abstract and slippery ideas it is really important to use words according to their precise meanings.
DDG LLM summarizing Studocu & Wikipedia:
Capitalism is an economic system characterized by private ownership of the means of production and minimal government intervention, focusing on profit and free market competition. In contrast, statism involves significant state control over economic activities, with the government owning key industries and regulating the economy extensively for collective welfare.
I mean, he is an expert on crime.
Lol. This guy needs to be tried and executed for treason.
Oh mortal man
You can bury your humanity
But you cannot outrun your mortality
