I have had friends start to freak out this term. I told them that most of this same stuff happened last term, you just didn’t hear about it (or listen to what I was saying) for some reason. Granted, he’s become much, much worse since our conversations in February because of SCOTUS backing him, but he had concentration camps last time as well.
I mean, Trump did Jan 6th, said he wanted to be a dictator, Project 2025 outlined everything that was going to be, and is currently being done.
It was not any kind of difficult to figure this out lately, unless one just prides themself on being ignorant or has some kind of unexamined onion layers of normalcy bias at the same they are angry and worried about how not normal things are.
Oh well, cognitive dissonance is a bitch I guess, time for the Great Filter to attempt to cull that out of the gene pool.
They weren’t voting for him, but they have kids and both work full time jobs. They just didn’t know how bad it was. The media hides most of this stuff from the front page as well. You have to figure it out for yourself.
Yeah. The news broke in 2020 during the later part of the election cycle, but the incidents started around 2018.
A fourth of the population swore up and down it didn’t happen (“But if it did, they shouldn’t have been here illegally in the first place!”), a fourth said “I don’t know who to trust so I’m going to ignore it 😔”, a fourth said “I don’t follow politics/I’m more worried about consumer prices”, and a fourth was pissed.
Welcome to American politics. Leave your sense of decency at the door.

I remember reading about them sterilizing migrant women in camps at the border last term and just staring at the wall for a good minute.
Can’t wait (/s) to see what escalations await us.
Holy fuck.
