Making America Crash Again

Almost a century since the Nazi rise in Germany, we are repeating the same mistakes. Not only in the United States, but other first world nations as authoritarianism is rising globally. It is disheartening to observe a populace embracing authoritarianism with either delight or indifference.

This sums it up perfectly and explains why I’ve been In a constant fight or flight state since November 2024. It feels exactly like it.

I have been there many times, have tons of friends there, and my family has winter homes in Arizona and Santa Fe.

I wish I was pleasantly surprised.

Putin has the might of the US military and control of our government.

β€œThis regime is killing people for power and profit.”

Trump is finishing what he started - the end of the United States and global chaos. He is a Russian asset owned by Putin from decades of debts to Russian oligarchs. He’s using the presidency to broker his way out while selling the nation for /

Their job is to terrorize and even execute people. Many have criminal records or don’t even have high school degrees. Some are right wing nationalists and pardoned 1/6 insurrectionists who couldn’t get work. They’re incentivized by number of arrests.

This is their masturbatory fantasy.

Yup. To them, this is a β€œwin”. Anyone who doesn’t understand needs to go anywhere in the south, Deep South, and talk to them. They’re raised to hate democrats. Not just Fox News and right wing media, their families, friends, neighbors. The south is still bitter they lost the civil war.

I watched Schiff question Noem after Tillis and I have to admit Democrats need to take a page out of the Republican playbook. People have short attention spans and memories, much of it is theatre and they need to show emotion. Get angry. Shout. Anything other than what they’re doing.

There seem to be a lot of bots and sock puppets lately pushing division amongst democrats, progressives, liberals, independents, etc. over this Senate seat. I wonder why.

Agree which is why I’m blocking you. Clearly, you have an agenda and it’s not for the betterment of democracy.

Definite bot/sock puppet. Blocked as well.

I’ve been noticing a massive uptick in bots and sock puppets coming after Talarico which is interesting. Both are great candidates but republicans are absolutely afraid of him in Texas.

So the Trump administration has further removed restrictions on searches allowing them to break down anyone’s doors without justification or sense of urgency.

Not surprised but absolutely disgusted. The United States is one step closer to a true dictatorship.

Absolutely. As a psychologist, it’s important to distinguish that sociopathy and intelligence are not correlated. My concern is the general public dismissing the acts of this administration as incompetence and stupidity which underestimates them and may be our weakness. We cannot do such.

Xitter is exactly that - a far right cesspool of bots and sock puppets. Recall when Musk allowed users to see where profiles are based and the majority of MAGA accounts are in Russia, Eastern Europe, even India? I would state maybe 20% of the user base are real people and that’s generous.

I watch Tillis then Schiff and I have to admit: democrats need the same energy and tactics that republicans use against these people. Schiff is great but there’s no energy, no urgency, nothing to get people paying attention and THAT’S where republicans succeed. It’s part theatre these days.
