I mean, this is technically exactly that, albeit in a much more limited scope.
The last time this was invoked was in 1965, during civil rights demonstrations in Alabama. But the Federal Government sent in the troops to protect the demonstrators from their local police.
The image of the United States was destroyed twenty years ago. It became irreparable in 2016. What’s happening now is, since Trump has destroyed all of America’s diplomatic and economic leverage, we can finally be honest about what we think of you.
While semantically I have issues with what you said, they’re not important. Overall, I agree with you. One thing I think the important take away should be the reasons I hate America is because it could be so much better. Not every American is blindly patriotic.
Don’t worry, we agree, this is authoritarian imperialist colonizing shithole just like it always has been. Fascism isn’t new to America, this country was built on genocide and slavery, it’s a fucking cesspool.
That’s true. However, I’m afraid that the current regime is not only working to destroy the image of the United States, but to destroy what remains of democracy.
It seems that Drump and his henchmen will stop at nothing to establish a fascist state. I think the administration’s actions as a whole point strongly in that direction.
How long until he declares Martial Law?

Honestly one of the coolest moments in US history.
I feel like the destruction of the image of the United States is in full swing.

I cannot stress the so much better part enough.
