Does anybody even pretend to think this is about fighting crime?
I have several Republicans in my circles that do, it’s surreal.
The news seems to be
boughtconvinced
Well, yeah. Because the “danger” is not the crime. It’s the people thinking “wrong”.
Release the Trump/Epstein files
I kind of wonder what that would change. It has been known for years that he was best buddy whith the most notorious pedo of the past 50 years. We have tapes, letters, etc. He clearly his a pedophile, if people didn’t realize that before, they’re stupid
The right wing alternate reality machine has been hammering their brain with “The Epstien files are nothing/a plot by the democrats/fake/don’t say anything about Trump (according to Maxwell)/etc”
Anybody can succumb to propaganda, be angry at the people who are intentionally misleading people. Attacking your own class is playing into the hands of the fascists.
*Trumpstein
Yeah. Take a look at common social media. It’s literally flooded again with right-wing BS justifying trump’s actions. Outright lies made over and over. There’s no way these aren’t paid troll farms doing this. The volume is overwhelming.
This is why Facebook banned me. I relentlessly reported people for hate speech and then started telling people that Jesus will likely spit them out when they go to heaven. They got triggered and mass reported my comments. Facebook is a shit hole of Ai accounts posting psychotic bullshit.
Just get off the service. Back up your pictures. Everything will be better once you’re gone.
Good reason to get banned.
Not at all. It was in response to a group of people who threatened to burn down a youth center for a rainbow flag.
Not all snowflakes need to hear the hardcore truth, the internet has become too fucking sensitive. Fuck your feelings.
I wonder if the left will have to embrace paying …untroll? farms
The problem is how do you troll with the truth? “Well akshully climate change is manmade!” Vs “Climate change is a New World Order Jewish Plot!!1!”
Stupid extremist lies win pretty handily when you’re trying to hook the racist and easily ragebaited uneducated.
Good question. Maybe some sort of similar mind games but with the goal to get towards the truth. For like a commercial, maybe put Trump on a throne and show how he sees the working class. Make him say stuff like “okay see if we can make them believe in Jewish space lasers next!” While laughing at some gaudy party. Then have some totally normal looking guy look up from a tweet and be like "they really think we are that dumb? Weird ". Maybe internet trolling could be just accounts that say things like “no one is believing this bullshit anymore. Can’t they think of something more clever to try to fool us with? My insurance rates are skyrocketing with all these hurricanes and fires from the whole damn world getting hotter. If they don’t want to give up profits at least make a believable lie for us.”
Maybe that’s too many words but basically make fun of the messaging the right is sending and try to put everyone on their own side by pretending they themselves, and anyone agreeing with them, is smart. It’s the exact same brainwashing format the right is using. Just use it back.
To this day, my Fox News addled dad insists that Minneapolis and Seattle burned to the ground in 2020. I’m sure there are a ton of bots, but there’s also a ton of brainwashed people out there.
If anyone from any corner wanted to do anything real about crime or drug use they could. It’s an easy fix. It just takes investing in the people. Raising wages. Giving people a decent quality of life. Make it so every day isn’t a scrap. A struggle for survival.
But then wages go up. We hate that here.
He wants a conflict to happen.
Any protest of this will be framed as violence and be used to justify more troops. I’m sure we’ll get to a point where federal agents are “protecting” voting sites and intimidating minorities.
The Heritage foundation and the other fascist groups have been planning this for decades. The midterm elections are going to be tampered with in some way, this is just the initial stages of the project.
It’s a martial law program, and nothing else.
It’s almost like it isn’t for the reasons he says…what a shocking and implausible thought.
Trump? Bullshitting? No! Our good President, thanks be upon him, sir.
Anyway, 🦭💨
It makes sense because he’s a criminal.
The oligarchs are prepping for collapse and upheaval, and the Democrats will “go along with it” (work in concert) to implement the authoritarian police state, just as they have always done.
Ha ha if you believe this is about crime then you probably believed DOGE was about saving you money. 🤣
he’s testing reactions.
You know if he’s not able to rig the election this shit is going back fire on him.
They’ll be rigged even if he has to station troops at every voting location in the country.
Never forget, he promised everyone that they’d never have to vote again.
If there is another election, you can be absolutely certain he will rig it. Nobody is even bothering to push back against him this time. He can do whatever he wants to get his thumb on the scale, just like he is right now with redistricting.
Also, I’m not even convinced he didn’t rig the last one. He tried to cheat in 2020, failed, and nothing bad happened to him because the Democrats were too scared to put the full force of the law behind prosecuting him for it. Why wouldn’t he cheat again? Why would he ever leave office if the SCOTUS rules that the President is immune to both civil and criminal prosecution?
Boiling a frog, when people want to rise up they’ll find the dragnet is nice and tight around them.
That’s what this would seem to imply. He’s sending small amounts to each city and the moment any of them have even the most miniscule of a squabble it’ll be an excuse to put the whole city under martial law and send in way more troops to see it through
I think he claimed democrats after lying about the crime numbers.
Well they must be lying about the numbers, because he’s lying about the numbers.
If you can’t beat them with facts, attack them with feelings.
